vívosmart 5

Vivosmart looks like you're stuck with their silicone strap as the face is rather surrounded into it though right? With my charge, I like to swap for narrow black leather straps to give a more elegant and standard watch look. It looked like there's compatible watch style straps like that for the lil

Depends on preference and use case. The Garmin watch I have (research study, mandatory, vivosmart 5) has a silicone band and a form factor that tends to get in the way of sleeves, etc. more than my Apple Watch. Another downside: my Garmin vivosmart 5 doesn’t have the capacity to do real-time HR thre

REI Note that most Garmin sport watches come with multiple adjustable bands. I have a Lily 2 Active with after market metal bands. I had Vivosmart 5 and Vivosmart 4 where my skin was irritated by the silicone bands.

I’ve had mine for literally just a few hours and was actually surprised at how many steps I already had counted - will keep monitoring. I gave up on a garmin Vivosmart 5 because of inaccurate sleep tracking, uncomfortable band, and it hardly ever auto tracking my walks. Steps overall seemed maybe ev

I have the Garmin vivosmart 5. Looked into fitbit, but didn't want a subscription. The visible band isn't available in my country.

The Vivosmart 5 seems really similar but it looks like it gets inserted into the band rather than hooked u

Shop for a fitness tracker, not a smart watch. There's a lot of overlap between the two in that space, but something like a Garmin Vivosmart or Fitbit Inspire is going to be cheaper, more comfortable, and offer few to no distractions.

Garmin vivosmart 5 on the wrist. I’ve been happy with it, I mean how accurate do you really need as a non-pro - I think just consistency. Plus it’s light and connects to gym equipment like pelotons. A full on gps enabled watch might be cool too. I connect it to a wahoo elmnt bolt. I used to have a w
