Great size and features for a 2nd Garmin watch

I bought this as a compliment to my Fenix 6 watch for a couple of reasons. First I wanted to monitor my sleep and personally found the Fenix bulky. Second, the Vivomove Sport fits better when wearing a dress shirt when I am unlikely to need the adventure features of the Fenix. Body metrics are best viewed in the Connect app rather than the small watch face of the Vivomove, but standard functions such as time, alerts etc work well on the available screen.
I bought the Sport because my HR OLED was becoming fuzzy. Eventhough the face is smaller than the HR, the Sport is easier to read and the hand move away from the messages that appear. It has a lot more health programs and reminders and responds better to wrist movement. The pairing wasn't easy, and I find that the battery doesn't last up to five days. But all in all it is well worth the money.
Keeps a battery life for a couple of days as long as you don't use the some sleep oxygen feature that really drains the battery but its overall a great hybrid. Looks and acts like a watch while also tracking everything I need. wish is came with gps but hey the price point is great.
I thought they would use the whole screen for functions, but by using only a small space the letters are too small and many times I can't see them. This watch is not functional. It looks like a regular watch and not a smart one

Thank you for your review and experience with the Vivomove Sport device and we would like to discuss this further over email. If you would please email us at product.support@garmin.com.
This is a nice looking watch, and I love the fact that it doesn’t look like a smartwatch at first glance. I wish it was more consistent with measurements of sleep data.
