Review on Enhance Your Garmin Vivosmart HR with Meifox Soft Silicone Replacement Bands (White, Large) by Robert Howell

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor quality control

I bought this to replace the straps on my VivoSmart HR. The color was a little lighter than the original blue of my watch, but that wasn't a big issue. It consists of 2 parts that screw onto the main body of the watch. The piece of strap with all the holes fitted perfectly and was easy to assemble. However, the buckle part did NOT fit, and no matter how hard I tried to align it, I was unable to connect this part to the watch. It appears that the molding process did not leave enough free space in the cavity for the part to fit properly in the watch. 2 main reasons I bought this: 1) the original watch strap was too short, this one was longer 2) The small silicone loop on the buckle on my original snapped so I needed a new loop. the original part and then reinstalled the original buckle part on my watch. At least I now have a comfortable watch with a longer strap, but the two parts of the strap are now different colors. The parts appear solid but it is very disappointing that the fit of one of the parts was just unusable.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Crumpled
