How About a Sturdy Reliable Watch?

Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2021

Color: Black StainlessVerified Purchase

I bought the Vivoactive 3 around three days ago. This is a great watch. I paid a little over 160 dollars / w tax included. Let me just say it is a tremendous buy & well worth the money. The battery life is great. I'm at 47% as of right now. And that's with the GPS running, plus Bluetooth on. This watch is a very accurate piece. Keeps time we'll. You can set this watch up for swimming, walking, running,golf,and areobics. It's excellent on keeping messages & viewing notifications. It uses the Garmin,and Garmin Connect apps. This watch pairs with your phone like a charm. The Vivoactive 3also has Garmin Pay. Which is handy for those times that you may have left your smartphone at the house or somewhere in your car. This has sleep tracking, calories in take. Measures your heartbeat & blood pressure. In the Garmin app you may set it up for physical fit challenges and programs. Right now it's giving me two messages. More tips on how to use the watch. And it just told me to get up & move. And this time piece is very trendy, good looking. Plus it's sturdy but real comfy to wear. This is a good buy.

Love this watch. Great price is a bonus.

Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2020

Verified Purchase

Bottom Line Up Front: I love this watch.

Pros:
- color LCD screen
- lots of ability to personalize
- app gives you lots of data
- extended warranty
- Apps are variable and easily changed
- you can edit your watch faces
- lots of GPS options
- lots of sports options
- the price is right

Cons
- no ECG (this is on the new version)
- no on board music capability (also on the new version)

I'm not a super gym rat. My job requires that I maintain reasonable physical fitness, but nothing extreme. So I don't care if the watch can count pullups or situps.

I do care that it can track bike, run and swim activities accurately (pool, not open ocean) and work as a reasonable activity and sleep tracker.

This watch meets my needs and more. There are far more activities than I need, but that's kinda cool.

I will give a better review once I have used it for a while.

Not perfect but great

Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2021

Color: Black StainlessVerified Purchase

This watch works very well for its intended purpose. Its nota multi thousand dollar piece of medical monitoring equipment. The heart rate function is not 100 percent accurate, I believe it depends on many variables, how tight or loose the strap is, the angle of your wrist etc. but it gives you a ball park idea and that's as good as it gets. There is an optional chest strap with more accuracy available.
the Gps is very accurate and locks in quickly to the satellites. The user interface works good after you learn how to use it, there are lots of menus and it takes a bit to figure out how its all laid out. There is a lock feature that you must use when swimming or showering or the water messes with all your settings, the lock feature could be easier to activate....possibly by providing one more physical button just for locking and unlocking. there are plenty of activity apps provided and you can make a custom one in Garmin Connect if you desire.
there are a lot of features that may be useful to some but not others, these can be disabled if not wanted. the watch connects easily with my Android phone and the music controls are very handy. The find your phone feature works great when the grand kids toss the phone under the couch or it slides between the cushions on the couch...love it!
Garmin Connect is great lots of graphs and useful information is logged on your activities, and the GPS provides an actual Google map of your run, walk, cycle route or Kayak path. The sleep function has its limitations but provides a general idea of what goes on at night. All in all a very high tech watch that works pretty darn good and provides a good deal of information and fitness motivation.....good job Garmin!

Fantastic for MTB, Walks, and Swimming

Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2021

Color: Black StainlessVerified Purchase

Battery life really depends on the face you want on your watch. If you go with a standard, it’ll last 24/7 for about 5 days for me based on moderately active: swim, walks, and mountain biking.

If you elect the face that has widgets such as BPM, a second hand, date, battery, etc. (there’s apps for that on connect IQ) it will reduce your battery life to about 2-3 days 24/7. I wear this while I sleep so keep in mind this is for 72 hours.

The GPS is spot on in my opinion and research. I google map, Strava, and my partner has a fit bit, and across the board her fitbit is off. Strava is also a bit off but very close (0.05-0.01 miles) and google and garmin are practically exact.

I can’t say the BPM is accurate. It feels off to me, as sometimes i’m 120BPM resting and 2 minutes later i’m at 40BPM. This could be multiple things: watch being loose, widget app being off, etc. I truly think it’s user error for me as I don’t wear the watch tight as I break out in eczema with the silicone wrist band.

My Blood pressure is 115/73, im 195lbs, 28 years old, male, and in relatively good shape (10 minute mile jogs). I have no underlying issues and the doc says i’m physically fit. So take my review with this information in mind. This information is extremely relevant to this product. You don’t blame a doctors heart monitor when you visit and this is the same tech, so keep that in mind.

i’ve wore this in the ocean while snorkeling with no issues. It works fine in the shower but tends to randomly go through setting depending on how the water hits the face. It works great for weight lifting HOWEVER, I have to consistently manually enter weight and reps as the tech just isn’t there yet. Id say it’s right about 50% of the time. I edit all the info on my phone app. I also use those with an app called Lose It! which is designed to help one lose weight, get the right amount of macronutrients, etc. I’ve lost 25lbs in 2 months through the combination of these two products.

The phone I use is an Iphone X (smaller one) so this review might not help the Android user.

The product for 150$ is fantastic. Id highly recommend this to anyone willing to be more health conscientious.

Bom produto

Reviewed in Brazil on December 13, 2021

Color: Black StainlessVerified Purchase

O produto é bacana e atende bem ao que propõe. Ele é um pouco menor do que eu esperava, mas não atrapalha em nada a prática esportiva. É super leve e fácil de manusear.
Me chama atenção o monitoramento do GPS. Não sei a razão, mas comparado com outros apps de corrida, a distância é sempre menor, confesso que fico desconfiado nos meus treinos.

Excellent excellent excellent!

Reviewed in Canada on July 10, 2020

Color: Black StainlessVerified Purchase

This product is simply fantastic. Battery life is super long, gps tracking works flawlessly, and heart rate sensor seems accurate and fast responding. Not as fast as a chest strap but fast. Colour screen is super bright in bright direct sunlight and nicely lit at night. Only downside is vo2 max doesn't seem to calculate for cycling. But maybe it's a setting I haven't found yet. Strap and watch are comfortable to wear 24/7 and battery recharge is really quick. Notifications work well (with android).

Integrates really nicely with MyFitnessPal. No integration with Google fit or loseit... I had to switch to MyFitnessPal. A bit glitch integration with runkeeper. The integrations overall could be improved, but that is the least of my worries because the Garmin app is so well thought out.

This is a sport watch. If you're looking for a toy, look somewhere else. But if you want a serious sport watch for a great price, buy this. My only regret is that I didn't buy it sooner.

Es un excelente producto, muy bueno, de alta calidad, funcional, lo uso para natación principalmente y ha mejorado mucho la precisión en relación al Vivoactive; sin embargo, de acuerdo a los ejercicios que realices puede llegar a tener mediciones erróneas siempre y cuando no realices el mismo ejercicio al nadar, si es el mismo estilo la precisión es excelente y magnífica, puedes instalar diversos deportes y para el uso en exteriores es genial, la detección de ejercicio también es aceptable y puedes realizar varias cosas desde su interfaz.

brilliant

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 2, 2020

Color: Black StainlessVerified Purchase

had the Vivioactive 3 for nearly a month now and have to say this Garmin is truly brilliant and I've not been as active as I'd liked to have been or as I have been in the past, I wear it all the time and often forget I'm wearing it and comparing it to others in same Category its the lightest so no surprise there,
I'm looking forward to doing gym work outs as the downloaded workouts look great and gives instructions on how to do them if needed
I really cant fault it and although I don't need to wear a chest HR strap I have the option for more detailed workouts particularly indoors but more so when running
using it pay is spot on ideal works really well
having alarms for different things works great
timers and stop watch perfect
not used the golf but plan to as its a great idea especially when doing a round on own, love this idea
when it needs charging its really quick too or jst an hour and its pretty much charged from near empty, also great for doing ultras (over 24hrs) although you cant wear it whilst charging, a remote quick charge will give you another days worth of run no problem and the connection for charging is strong and firm (not flimsy/loose)
love the average resting heart rate display (after wearing for a few days ie 3 )
the display is brilliant in sunlight and I got this after my Fitbit charge3 hr display died, so I no longer wear 2 types of timers as I only wore my garmin 630 when running, now I only use my Garmin vivoactive 3 as it gives me steps as well and constant HR and I pretty much only used Fitbit for steps/time/HR hence I no longer need it
changeable wristbands a bonus too nice and simple to do no drama
receiving texts.calls,instant messages, diary notifications and any others I choose to allow such as security cameras notifications this is brilliant
the satnav navigation is useful when you leave your car in a car park in another town/city
changing the watch faces is awesome too altho I like the digi white numbers that turn blue as to reach steps activity target and also has hr and day date on
i could go on and on about how good this Garmin is but my final bit is I opted not for the music version as I can use mobile if needed and control it whilst running exercising as I always have mobile with me any way as an emergency if ever needed
i'm thankful I got this in an Amazon sale and brand new as I was looking for a Fitbit HR4 due to my Fitbit HR3 stopping working and spotted the Vivoactive3 which after reading the write ups I'm really pleased and it comes with a 2 year guarantee :-) so I'm well pleased
I wouldn't bother with a screen protector I did at 1st and it came off after a short while and the type of glass this Garmin is fitted with (Gorrilla3 I think) its pretty sturdy protection
if you haven't gathered already I REALLY love this Garmin my favorite in the past was the Garmin 310XT due to battery life but although the Vivoactive is less using GPS its easy to recharge and the stats its produces are really spot on amazing for me anyway
hope this review helps someone

Excellente montre sportive connectée avec une superbe appli !

Reviewed in France on May 9, 2019

Color: Black StainlessVerified Purchase

La montre :
+Mesure cardio très précise (j'obtiens le même résultat à 2 pulsations près qu'avec un tensiomètre médical);
+Lisibilité excellente en plein soleil;
+GPS au top en précision = nb de pas, vitesse, distance et tracés au top;
+Écran large sans être extravagant, juste la bonne taille;
+Très légère, on oublie complètement qu'on est en train de la porter;
+Protection d'écran Corning Gorilla Glass 3, solide et résistant aux rayures;
+Super sur le tactile et le bluetooth;
+Design sympa.

- L'espèce de molette tactile sur le côté opposé au bouton pression est pour moi inutile et peu pratique;
- Faible contraste lumineux, certes on voit extrêmement bien en plein soleil mais c'est un peu terne dans le noir;
- Pas de nage en eau libre mais seulement en piscine;
- On ne peut pas l'utiliser comme la Vivoactive 3 music (lecteur mp3) pour courir ou autre sans son portable (Rmq: pas mal de gens se plaignent de l'écran de la Vivoactive 3 music qui serait bien plus fragile que celui de la Vivoactive 3 .. donc mon choix s'est porté d'avantage sur ce modèle);
+- Montre d'avantage destiné à être un tracker sportif connecté qu'une montre connectée comme l'Apple Watch &cie, oui on reçoit les notifications, appels et sms, mais rien à voir .. tout dépend de l'utilisation que l'on souhaite .. la montre est suffisamment connectée pour moi.

L'appli :
Que du positif pour l'application Garmin connect. L'interface est splendide, on peut planifier ses workouts de A à Z, parfait pour prévoir des petites sessions de fractionné par exemple, les rentrer directement dans la montre pour y avoir accès quand on le désir. On trouvera également un coach sportif pour atteindre un objectif que l'on souhaite se fixer (ex: courir le 10km à 5min/km) .. et évidemment un accès à toutes les données que la montre a synchronisé avec notre appareil .. le résultat visuel est réussi. La communauté sur le Connect IQ store fait de l'excellent boulot, tout le monde trouvera la watchface qui lui correspond, l'application ou le widget dont il a besoin.

Au final vraiment satisfait de mon achat et je la recommande sans hésiter.
