Good features/Hoky graphics
on July 21, 2018
Posted by: ClemsonReba
I'm a past Fitbit user and I really wanted something with more running metrics. I like this watch. I wish I could turn off the Facebook and texting notifications, but can't figure out how to do that. I did get the music version and hope the connectivity is improved in the near future (based on reviews). I don't have wireless earbuds, yet, so I am not able to currently use that feature. The graphics are a bit generic or simple, but they are easy to read.

Have many issue with basic functions and sensor
on August 4, 2018
Posted by: Thai
- Barometric altimeter sensor is working incorrect: When I stand in one place, but the height changes continuously from 10 to 20m, sometimes negative. When swimming, the value gradually decreases to -90m. (compare with iPhone 7, X)
- Count Floor incorrect when I compare with iPhone 7, X
- Thermometer sensor: deviated with Omron MC 720 20-30% of value
My Vivoactive 3 Music with FW: 2.50, Country is Viet Nam.

Would be perfect except for the music part

Great watch, except the only streaming service you can sync playlists from is iHeart Radio, which no one uses, and has filed for bankruptcy! Why do you call this a music watch?
Response from GarminBy Blake with Garmin, Fitness Product Support, August 23, 2018
We understand the frustration of not being able to currently use your preferred music service, but this is a list that we hope to grow quickly. We are unable to to force a streaming services to come on board, but we are working aggressively to make additional partnerships to service as many of our customers as possible.

Easy to use, but music sources limited

Purchased my Vivoactive 3 Music a few weeks ago, and I enjoy the ease of use when navigating to music and changing songs. However I wish there were more sources for getting music on the device. Spotify would be a great if it was supported.

Bad interface, nice physical design
on August 9, 2018
Posted by: Ben L
The watch is lightweight and looks good. I ran into several issues though - the music connectivity with headphones is shaky; the ability to use the touch screen with a sweaty finger is frustrating; the actual UI is not very intuitive. The app is designed really well, compared to the Fibit Ionic, but the Ionic has a leg up in terms of watch UI.
I probably wouldn't buy this watch again.

Awesome

I've only had this a few days and it is awesome. I love all the features and apps you can add. Battery life isn't quite as good as expected.
