Garmin 010-02174-01 Vivoactive 4: GPS Smartwatch with Music, Body Energy Monitoring, and More Review

As is clear from my whining in the Disadvantages, the main cant is the unstable, unpredictable operation of the bluetooth connection. Still dissatisfied with the distance of the bluetooth. For me, the standard in this regard is headphones (AirPods and Sony), which allow you to walk around the apartment without breaking the connection with the phone. Wife has an Apple Watch. Practically does not wear them because of the need to charge every one and a half days. Watch is always discharged at the…

I own one of the best watches on the market today. I live in Hong Kong, when choosing a watch, it was necessary to satisfy the needs: unsportsmanlike design, accurate tracking of running activity, harmin pay, music from the watch, new gps and heart rate sensors on the wrist. Long agony of choice, surfing the Internet, viewing characteristics and videos - all this confused even more when choosing a watch model. Initially I wanted fenix 6 pro, as I was the owner of fenix 5 sapphire, but they…

Promising functionality that I did not get to know due to marriage Has pros: Garmin Pay Sleep tracking pulse oximeter A wide range of classes and the possibility of loading them Appearance Download watch faces Watch music control Convenient notifications from your phone Its cons: Eternal glitches GPS didn't even think to show up on my watch Pedometer can count 1000 steps per night while you sleep Counts the pulse of the blanket Garmin has a huge amount of marriage, which is diligently…

In general, they meet expectations, help maintain a healthy lifestyle and monitor the state of health, which is so necessary in the modern world.

Pros: An excellent transflective screen, unfortunately, few people now install such screens (((If you are an amateur athlete, then a set of training programs and a function for automatically detecting activity will come to you. For pros, it’s better to look towards something more functional (but also expensive, respectively) . Good design of the watch itself. A huge plus is the ability to link a card and make purchases using the watch! Some cons: Few smart features! It’s especially bad that you

Got pros: Functional Screen Garmin pay works great Excellent connection with the Garmin app Its cons: At most, the hand sweats a little. But this will be the case for all smart yas

The watch is excellent. I recommend. The presence of two buttons on vivoactive 4 instead of one on 3 is a controversial decision. One was enough for me. Pros: I compare with vivoactive 3, which I used for almost 4 years. The screen is larger, it is read better even with my drowsy eyesight. Consider oxalation! The old ones were missing. The watch on the wrist shows a little lower than the finger pulse oximeter, but it's great to observe the dynamics. Breathing rate. Comfortable body battery. I…

In general, a model for a solid four can be recommended, but with voice guidance it would be MUCH more convenient! Pros: - easy to carry and control, - cute and sleek design, - the optimal size for a medium-sized male hand (I was originally ready to take Fenix, but turned out to be uncomfortable on my hand), - a variety of functions and their sufficiency in general for an amateur athlete (EXCEPT for the lack of voice guidance!), - the ability to listen to music from the watch's memory,…

I liked the watch, I recommend to buy. Its pros: Transflective screen, design, battery life, speed, constant heart rate measurement even when swimming, I really liked contactless payment, messages come quickly, quick answers, you can build everything for yourself, a clear interface. Cons below: Blood oxygen saturation greatly underestimates. Strength training counts each approach separately, when pumping the arms it counts almost exactly, but when doing exercises on the legs it does not count…

I ordered in the UK, I was very worried that I would be disappointed. But no! I just love using it. The first GPS search was very long. the clock traveled a long distance, it was necessary to catch the satellite again. I decided not to change the language from English (and it’s understandable), but in general, a very simple way to change the language to 2022 is described on w3bsit3-dns. Com. Previously, there were only mi band of different generations. And for everyone, after about a year of…

In general, of course, an alternative to them is older models, such as Garmin Enduro. Buying watches of other brands that last less than a day is very doubtful)) The transflective screen is VERY convenient. Before that, there were Samsung with an "always black screen", but I don't want them anymore)) For the button interface on a watch with a touchscreen (without swipes and all that) and most importantly - for a terribly implemented lock, I put a three. PS On Ali there are 3D protective films

Sometimes it is very delivering (in many ways) localization, when many words are amusingly shortened; invariably pleases, for example, “cf. chp "(average heart rate). And a minute of the battery name: according to the declared performance characteristics, one charge should be enough for eight days in some kind of standby mode; I still charge every three or four days, but you need to understand that these are 1-2 daily workouts for 2-2.5 hours in total, all kinds of notifications and some kind…

In general, an excellent product as an understudy of smartphone functions and an assistant for amateur training. If you do not keep track of the number of steps and floors taken per day, but use the watch as a recorder of training parameters, then this is a very good choice. : Spotify playlists will download better if you bring the watch closer to the Wi-Fi router. In this case, the battery is severely discharged.

In general, I am satisfied with the watch. For hiking, you can download a program from third-party developers. It seems to do the job. Autonomy is close to the declared by the user. The watch is comfortable on the hand, looks decent, can be worn with any clothes. GPS finds within 30 seconds, the track writes smoothly, with the exception of rooms where it immediately starts jumping.

In addition to the above advantages, I would also add a convenient Garmin Connect application, in which you can analyze your sleep, and the so-called "body battery charge", but these functions cannot be attributed only to this watch, these functions, as I understand it, are available in almost the entire line Garmin watch. In terms of battery consumption, I can say that the average consumption is: 1% per hour - at rest; 1% in 10 minutes - in training mode. In general, after three months of use,

Garmin Pay can not be annoying (at least compared to Samsung) - once a day you need to enter a PIN - but it's not difficult. After that, it works without a PIN (if the watch was not removed from the hand) - and very quickly. I use it as the only means of payment. Samsung launches its Samsung Pay for a long time, plus there is also the "pay" button you need to press, in the harmine everything turns on instantly. In response to, in my opinion, not a very fair review of Arkady G.: "The built-in…

In general, the impression on 4 is very spoiled by the lack of functions that the watch can obviously support by hardware, but not added solely in order to increase demand for "older" models. At the same time, for some reason, the interests of people who do not like Forerunner or Fenix ​​purely externally and in size (or the touch screen is important) are not taken into account, and loading created workouts and voice accompaniment of workouts is very important. Of course, this is solved by…

It must be understood that the device will have a finite lifespan. And if $400 for a couple of years seems reasonable, what about the Fenix ​​series, for example? I thought about replacing it with the Fenix ​​6X Saphire, but decided against it due to fears of the same battery problem. Therefore, I switched to the Forerunner series as an experiment, it will not be so offensive, if anything.

For 2 weeks of using GPS, I caught it only once right away (and even then at that moment there was a connected phone with GPS turned on), on another run 20 minutes after the start and on another run 40 minutes later. About 30 more trainings and test signal searches were failed. No matter how I tried to find a location to start training or to save in navigation, I never succeeded: neither in the house, nor in the forest, nor in open areas, nor on a dangling arm, nor on a frozen screen in the…

Like everything else these days, the cloud thinks your data belongs to them, is for their consumption, they can sell or rent, and the product you buy is their kiosk to sell you and for as long as possible to make money with you. This watch is great, the mobile app is nice, but they sell your soul and health data to their cloud. Love the watch, it offers LOTS of functionality as a standalone device and can be an extension for alerts from your iPhone WITHOUT the Garmin Collect app. I downloaded…
