Review on Garmin 010-01769-09 Vívoactive 3 by Tik Tawan ᠌

Very, very good model. The price, of course, is quite high, but if you need a watch for people who lead a fairly active lifestyle without claims to an Olympic medal, that's it. Its pros: 1. Wonderful design. Compared to many other models of the "big three" sports watches, they look very concise on the hand, but at the same time solid, including due to the absence of a large number of buttons. 2. Autonomy. With 4 workouts for an hour a week (2 with gps, 2 - without) and with everyday wear, like hours, it is enough for a week completely. They charge very quickly, literally within 40 minutes from zero to 70-80%. 3. Good touch screen, responds quickly and accurately to touch. A brightness of 10% is enough to see the time and your performance for the day in any light. The whistle "the backlight turns on when you raise your hand to your face" is a wonderful find. The screen is quite difficult to scratch and break, with all my merciless use of the watch in various farts, it is still alive. 4. garmin pay. Sber support for him is wonderful. 5. Sports functions are made as standard, however, quite well (there are some advantages, about them a little lower). Synchronization with Strava, you can set up synchronization with Google Fit, it seems like you can upload to Excel spreadsheets. 6. Garmin has a bunch of third-party applications, so perhaps if something is missing, there is an option to install it from the store (the store is very conditional, most of the applications are paid). In general, Garmin Connect is a very pleasant and intuitive thing, where you can track all the indicators from the watch, statistics. It’s a pity that you can’t somehow set up a training plan, except for the standard ones, but for this case there is Garmin Express. 7. More or less adequate heart rate monitor, showing not the weather, but really, the pulse. 8. The ability to manage notifications on the phone screen - quick reply, close, view - just great. Save battery for both watch and phone. Cons: The disadvantages are not critical, but they are: 1. GPS can lag if you run even under the crowns of trees (you don’t have to try in the forest). It's pretty funny when your pace drops by 1.5 times just if your route goes through a grove. However, the final distance still corresponds to the real one - and thanks for that. 2. Sleep tracking is not a bad thing, but a) when viewing statistics, strange gaps suddenly appear when there is no sleep - neither fast, nor slow, nor wakefulness - just black segments. It is not clear what it is and how it is fixed, and b) it would be nice, of course, to add an optimal awakening in the sleep phase, it is worth waiting for this from a watch of this level. 3. Speaking of the alarm clock. The vibration is rather weak, obviously not always sufficient for awakening. 4. When swimming: it is enough to make a small, for a couple of seconds, stop in the middle of the track - and the clock counts it as +1 swimming pool. It is not very clear why this is so, but the fact is a fact. 5. Indistinct music management: the name of the playing song is often not loaded or, if loaded, is not ated for a couple of days. 6. Unlike a pedometer, the floor counter shows the weather outside. How he counts them, why climbing the same stairs to the eighth floor on one day can be counted as 13, and on another day as 7 is a mystery.
