As the name implies, the Garmin Vivosport ($199) aims to deliver features that appeal to more serious athletes, such as the ability to track swimming and strength-training workouts.
Comfortable; Embedded GPS; Swim-rated; Music controls
Sensitive screen; No interchangeable bands; Bland design
The new Garmin Vivosport can be considered a follow up to one of our favourite GPS-equipped fitness trackers in recent years, the Garmin Vivosmart HR+ . It now has a slightly more fun design, alongside a new colour touchscreen display.
Comfortable design; Accurate GPS and HRM; VO2 Max estimations; Good battery life
Rep counting is still tacked on; Washed out display; Slightly buggy automatic exercise tracking
I bought this because it seemed to offer the best variety of options. GPS, fitness tracking, stress monitoring etc.. it is easy enough to figure out, set up and the app is good however, the screen was not very responsive to starting specific activities and you have to keep pressing until it starts...
Brought this garmin watch for my husband last Feb, with in 9 months the band had snapped and the watch has stopped charging due to the charging point being on the back of the watch which would sit on your wrist.
Piece of crap - strap broke and cannot be replaced. Yes - if you buy this device the moment the plastic strap breaks it will be useless to you! If you happen to be reading this review I'd recommend buying anything else that has a clearly replaceable strap/band instead.

The Garmin Vivosport is a fitness band with the fitness credibility of a larger runner's watch. It has GPS, it has a heart rate sensor, it even has an altimeter and shares an app with the Garmin Forerunner 935 .
Small for a full GPS tracker; Good battery life; Fair heart rate accuracy
Bland design; No swim modes; GPS can be slow to lock on
If you like the style of the Garmin Vivosport, there's no reason not to get one. It's reliable, durable, and accurate. If you're not sold on the Vivosport's design and would rather get a more fashionable tracker, check out the Vivoactive 3, a current favorite device from Garmin, and an Editors'...
Comfortable; Easy to operate; Great automated activity-tracking options; Customizable; Supports push notifications
A little expensive for a sports band; No swim tracking
I bought this a month ago, links with other apps and allows me to follow my fitness really well
