Great for the price! Love it because I can do water aerobics with it! The first one did not work correctly but this one is great.

Great tracker. For me it's working fine, I'm on my way to a more fit lfe

Helping lead a more active life

I bought this watch about 3 months ago and it has definitely served me well. While it is waterproof for a good while and has a years battery life the lock seems to be a bit faulty. Sometimes it just falls off you suddenly.

Every since I've had this tracker I still have not been able to get it to sync. I'm tired to trying so I will return. If it will not sync there is no use to have it.

One of the main problem with wearable tech is battery shelf life. We already have smart phones we have charge them every day, we don't want a watch that required the same thing. Garmin Vivofit 3 avoids this problem by keeping its features simple and its tech super-efficient, for battery life of up...

Garmin has given the original Vivofit a makeover. The screen on the Vivofit 3 has been shrunken down to a tiny square you can pop into other bands for a brand new look. It also adds a new Intensity Minutes metric and includes automatic activity detection for bicycling, running, swimming, and...

The original Garmin Vivofit was the company's first attempt at creating a fitness tracker and although it wasn't a bad device it didn't stand out in any way. The Garmin Vivofit 2 was more of an update than a new product – a Vivofit 1.5 if you will – and addressed some of the core issues with the...

The Garmin Vivofit 3 is a sub-$100 fitness tracker that's hoping to lure in the same prospective owners that'll also be casting an eye over the Fitbit Alta , the Misfit Ray and the Jawbone UP2 .

Year of battery life; Motivating auto goal mode; Accurate data

Lacklustre design; Small screen; Cluttered Garmin Connect app

Garmin has given the original Vivofit a makeover. The screen on the Vivofit 3 has been shrunken down to a tiny square you can pop into other bands for a brand new look. It also adds a new Intensity Minutes metric and includes automatic activity detection for bicycling, running, swimming, and walking. Despite these changes, the Vivofit 3 is still a rather basic fitness tracker that records activity, calories, distance, sleep, and not much else. It's a decent tracker, but for just a bit more, we prefer the Fitbit Alta and the Fitbit Charge HR. Design and DisplayGarmin is going for a more fashionable aesthetic here, one that you can match with most of your wardrobe. But unlike the Fitbit Alta or the Misfit Ray, the Vivofit 3 just looks a bit cheap. The band is made of rubber with a tire tread-like pattern that isn't terribly fashionable. Available in black, camo, or white, the tracker comes in two sizes: Regular (for wrists 5.4 to 7.7 inches in circumference) and X-large (6.5 to 8.9...

Garmin's Vivofit 3 does a fine job monitoring basic activities, but there are better fitness trackers out there for the price.

Comfortable; Tracks calories, distance, intensity, sleep, and steps; Waterproof; Long battery life

Cheap-looking design; Small, dim screen; Slow to automatically register activity; Doesn't count stairs climbed; Drab and cluttered app
