The Garmin vivosmart 4 is a wonderful little fitness tracker. It excels in pretty much all areas except two. Its lack of GPS or phone tethering option is notable, though I don’t think we should have necessarily expected Garmin to include them here.

The Garmin Vivosmart 4 livens things up with pulse ox detection and the new Body Battery feature, giving you a more comprehensive insight into your level of fitness. The former of those will have less appeal, but all of this makes for a fitness tracker that's evolved well beyond step counts.

  Small screen, Screen unresponsive at times, No GPS

Overall I really like the Garmin vivosmart 4. I like the aesthetics, as well as, the numerous functions. So many functions i may not use them all. The iPhone app works well with the vivosmart giving me no shortage of useful info throughout the day.

  Lots of info, comfortable band, looks nice, works well with app.

  Function button on display hard to engage at times

I'm a Garmin fan. I chose this product bcs it's smaller & sleek than most activity watches. What I didn't agree with Garmin on this product is you can't switch out the bands. Also, if your a swimmer this product isn't for you. This watch can go with you on your swim, but it won't track it for you.

Upgraded from the 3 and so happy that I did. Functionality wise it is definitely an upgrade and the shape/fit/material is so much more comfortable. I love Garmin wearables and the new vivo 4 is wonderful!

Coming from a Fitbit Alta HR, the Garmin vivosmart 4 feels better and lighter on my wrist. I like the Garmin Connect app better than the Fitbit app. Its not perfect but Im enjoying it more than the Fitbit. Battery life has been good.

We have had ours a week ... and really like them , I do not like wearing watches or jewelry so the small lightweight aspect of it is a appealing ! The wife has only one downs side so far, with a small wrist the the length of the screen sort of planks on her wrist rather than contouring on the top...

Vivosmart 4 is a good value for an activity tracker not terribly accurate for running (no GPS) but accurate enough for steps , stair climbing etc. Body Battery is not something that I can explain - and the stress monitor is equally obscure.

Overall I love it. There are a few consistent glitches and the user interface could be improved. But all things considered I would purchase it again. And it's pretty

I originally purchased a Fitbit Ionic. I had it for two days before I realized it's limitations. The visosmart 4 has two key functions I was looking for: all day stress monitoring and Pulse Ox. I didn't think I would like the size, but it's so comfortable I don't even realize I'm wearing it.

Most helpful seems like the Garmin encourages breathing, Badges and crashing through goals as I move up more stairs, start running, break step goals, heart rate, stress score, reminders to move.

Awesome product, does everything I need.
