Review on 🔧 Refurbished Garmin Vívoactive GPS Smartwatch by Richard Gaines

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works well: Smartwatch

I bought this watch after using a very "affordable" watch (bought to see if I wanted the tracking capabilities). I bought this watch because Garmin has a good reputation for GPS capabilities. I love this watch for fitness tracking. I don't use the sleep function because the watch turns on frequently and I also see the green light on the heart rate monitor. So I just don't wear it to sleep. I really don't wear watches so I wear them pretty loose and they still work well. The battery life is good and charges quickly. Battery life depends on screen brightness, so I use the recommended settings to get the best battery life. I would recommend this watch. It works well and the mobile app provides useful information. The clock syncs with Strava, but I haven't set that up yet. I bought a pack of 3 screen and face protectors as I'm very picky about watches. It has already saved me from screen scratches, so I would recommend buying those as well.

Pros
  • I hold my fists
Cons
  • Expensive insurance
