Great watch very happy

I was looking for a watch that would track my runs via GPS and also store music directly on the watch so I could run without my phone and listen to music preferably with Spotify support. This watch meets all of these criteria. It also has great battery life and charges very quickly. I also love the Garmin Connect app, but there's one thing that differs a bit and that's sleep tracking. Sometimes he says I slept when I was awake. Otherwise, it's great to be able to get little badges, see your…

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • only available in black

Not bad for Verizon version

VERY IMPORTANT when buying vivoactive 3 music: There are TWO types. Regular Edition and Verizon Edition. This one wasn't properly labeled as a Verizon edition, which made me angry, but the seller handled my complaint well, which is why I'm writing this review. If you want a Verizon subscription so you can download music and texts without a phone and have access to emergency services in the event of an accident, that's great. If you don't, the only loss is that you won't be able to sync music…

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

NO Verizon LTE watch.

If you're looking for an LTE version of this watch that lets you use all the features without pairing it with your phone, check out Revain for the Verizon Connected version this clock on . This one has an image of a watch with "Verizon" written on the screen. Some Amazon answers to questions about this watch are misleading and imply that the watch is Verizon compatible, but it is not. For this reason I cannot give this 5 stars as they are not what I expected. Still, it's a good watch and I have

The music connection is junk when moving and unusable when exercising

It took a lot of effort to install music on the device. After the music was installed, I connected the device to the Bluetooth headphones. Now when I sit very still with the clock on my head, the music sounds great. If I do any exercise or movement, the connection goes to hell. It's a shame to have a music-playing smartwatch that doesn't stay connected to your headphones on the go. If fitness tracking is all you're looking for, go for it. If you bought it to listen to music while walking and…

Pros
  • Very good quality
Cons
  • Poor

Already the best smartwatch!

Oh my god I didn't know what I was missing. I've used every smartwatch be it the Apple Watch, Gear and Galaxy equivalents, Michael Kors brands, Fitbit Versa. The Versa was my last purchase, but I was fed up with the lack of apps and features so I sold it. I took the money I sold the Versa with and bought this watch. The crack made me realize that this is exactly the watch I was looking for. Not only do they have built-in GPS for maximum workout accuracy, but they also have a feature that lets…

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Band

Music playlists cannot be changed without hard reset

I received two watches with the same problem, so I've concluded that the problem is with the software and not the physical limitation of the watch. Basically, if you download music to this watch using a Mac computer and Garmin Express software, you should be happy with those playlists forever, because if you try to delete them, you'll never be able to recover the space needed to replace them , another playlist. The only way to regain that space is to perform a hard reset, which will erase all…

Pros
  • Rugged design
Cons
  • The list will be long.

It promises so much - why such a complicated interface!

I had high hopes for this watch but it is so buggy I spent hours trying to get the music functions to work. I have a high tolerance for complex technical devices, this has really tested my patience like no other device before. Today, for example, I spent almost 30 minutes plugging in my headphones. Yesterday's task was to download Spotify podcasts. The day before I had to connect the watch to my iPhone which resulted in me having to reinstall the app. Even if the music and pairing functions…

  • Certified
Cons
  • Not everything fits
