Best Price for the watch I wanted
Rating: 5
Substantially lower price than All other stores (Amazon, Macys, Kohls, Target, Best Buy) at that time. I liked this watch as I already had one that I bought 2 yrs ago. These were gifts. Short of Apple Garmin makes best smart watches.

Great value, great product!
Rating: 4
Super easy to set up and super easy to use! Would recommend for a first smart watch. I got it for my sister and she loves being able to see how fast she is walking/running. The only issue is the steps are not 100% accurate, it is a little sensitive when in a bouncy car. The touch screen is amazing. I myself have the Fennix 5s and I find it looks similar. I love the metal around the face, makes it look way more expensive than it is. Great value! Get one before they are not available anymore.

it's great but Garmin needs to get it together as far as tech. watch looses downloads and won't connect to app because app is always broken. So if you have a favorite watch screen and their website goes down your watch screen goes away. just FYI

I give it 3 stars as it was not what I personally was looking for. For an average user, this doesn't really log steps correctly. I had some steps log while sitting at my desk. I had very few steps log while mowing my lawn. When I went out for a walk it registered steps almost exactly as I counted. So, I think there are some sensors that have to play together to make this work correctly. I did play with the GPS function and this is where it excelled. It tracked the precise location of my trek. I think this watch is more for a bicycler or runner. I ended up returning it, as I am neither one of those.

Wrist Band Causes Blisters and Keeps Odor
Rating: 2
I started with a Vivofit 3 as a beginner hiker and wanted an upgraded watch that could track sleep, heart rate, workouts, and GPS location. This watch met all the criteria but after wearing it normally as I would with the Vivofit 3, there was this awful odor the band absorbed. The wrist band gave me blistering so I have been switching wrists. After reading the Garmin forums I have been following regime where I rise the band and watch once a week to keep the odor and blistering at bay. Overall, its a great watch but the band needs better product development to avoid the cleaning regime so much.

Great looking & great features
Rating: 5
I previously owned several Fitbit trackers which were “OK”. It seemed like I was always replacing bands or my screen would crack. I decided I needed to see what else was available and I'm so happy I did! The Vivomove 3S is a beautiful watch and an accurate tracker with fun extra features like the weather, controlling the music on your phone, email, etc. I LOVE my Garmin!

Returned
Rating: 2
I was disappointed in this watch and returned it. It was difficult to read and didn't have many features that a smart watch should have.

Pretty watch poor touch screen
Rating: 1
I bought this expensive watch for Christmas to upgrade from my old Apple Watch I loved and to use for track season, training, swimming, etc. This watch is beautiful to look at, and I've gotten so many compliments on its appearance; however, the touch screen hasn't worked correctly at all. It won't even let me start a long run much less speed workouts. It's frustrating due to the price and how much time I've wasted trying to figure it out. I've heard so many great reviews and wanted to love it, but I'm sadly unable to use it.
