Better features
I'm liking my Vivo6 after struggling with my Vivo5. The features are more user friendly.

Do not buy
Absolutely the worst Garmin product I've ever bought. Not even a year old and it's rebooting itself randomly and disconnecting the Bluetooth from my headphones and phone.

Upgraded from the Vivoactive ;
I did not realized that it does not record flights of stairs as the vivoactive 4 did.
Also, if I am walking while carrying something it dies t seem to record the steps. I’m missing a lot of steps!

Best smart watch I've ever had!
I switched from another major brand, and I wish I'd switched sooner. The overall user experience and features are so much better with this watch. And I LOVE the long battery life.

Amazing features!
I love my watch! I recently started having seizures and this watch had made it so that I can alert my husband immediately so that he can call for help. It has fall detection and it has truly been a life saver. It also helps me keep my health and stress levels under control.
I am so grateful this product was available.

It's OK
I have had this watch about a month, it works very well but the problem I have is that, they make you pay for most of the upgraded faces. at the cost of this watch you should get many more options than they show for free.

Solid features, easy to use a reasonable value
Reasonably priced, solid features, and easy to use with decent info gathering. I was looking for a good product without a lot of concern for precision. I am not an athlete in training. Very happy with my purchase.

Better than the F....it
I just love my Garmin watch The vivoactive 6 is a very good reliable watch and let you know when to do intermittent exercises constantly updates with the app The only thing that I regret at that that's not let you input when you type a manual temperature other than that it's great.

Upgrade for me...
Much happier with this over 15 years of Fitbits- I am hard on watches so we will see how it holds up to farming. The screen is great, controls easy enough to handle and I do like the app. The Fallout watch screen is adorable.

Great upgrade from my 5 year old 4S.
Bought this after my 4S died...after 5 years. Love the updates on this 6. Much more info and features and definitely more accurate.

No Altimeter
This is my 3rd Garmin watch. For the most part I really like it. I didn't give it 5 stars because for whatever reason they chose to remove the altimeter from the device. Its a hiking watch....I hike the mountains of Colorado...What's with that. IMO Bad Choice Garmin

loaded with features
I bought it several weeks ago. I am still struggling to utilize all of the features. There were no instructions with it but I was able to go online and watch several tutorials.

Classy watch
I bought this 2 weeks ago and the ease of using it is fantastic. My old garmin was starting to give me erroneous data. This one is smaller than the 265 and provides accurate data. It came with two protectors which iis nice but they are oversized compared to the watch face.

New Vivoactive for runner girls
I’ve had a Garmin since I was 11 years old, this is my fourth one after my last one from 2022 shut down/died. I’ve always loved Garmin products, the Vivoactive is a nice sleek look with everything you could need, still getting used to some of the bells and whistles but so far I love it!

First time Garmin user
So far I'm loving it and I'm still learning it. I had a fitbit for years but when it died I decided to try Garmin. I still have a lot to learn but so far I've been impressed. It was a learning curve and I'm still learning all the features this watch has but I am loving it!! I'm sure I'll love it even more as I learn all the features of this watch.
