Product Description
Note - To extend the life of the battery: Reduce the backlight timeout, reduce the backlight brightness, turn off Bluetooth wireless technology when you are not using connected features, turn off activity tracking, limit the smartphone notifications the device displays, stop broadcasting heart rate data to paired Garmin devices and turn off wrist-based heart rate monitoring. From playing to paying, vivoactive 3 is the smartwatch for your active life. Make less payments with ease, right from your Watch, and with more than 15 preloaded sports apps - you can choose how you like to get fit. Built-in GPS lets you record the distance, pace, location and more for your outdoor activities.

*Comfort and Fit: 3/5
- This watch is pretty comfortable to wear for an extended period of time. I can wear it all night without having any discomfort. However, the issue I run into is the fit. I cannot seem to adjust the band to where it not too lose or too tight. On one notch it slightly digs into my skin and leaves indents and red marks. One notch looser and I get the green light that shows me that it is not reading accurately. For me, I have to leave on the looser notch and just slide it down on my wrist.
*Style: 3/5
-The watch face just swallows my wrist. It looks like a child wearing her father's watch. It's not super fashionable, and looks very unitarian. It is fine for working out, but that's about it. Which if you wanted to count steps while running errands, it might not fit with your everyday look.
*Mobile app: 5/5
- This watch was very easy to set up on the app. Plus it was very user friendly. The user interface is very intuitive and the average person will easily navigate through it. Additionally, it links up with my other fitness app, making calorie counting and keeping track of my activity, super easy.
*Battery Life: 5/5
-This watch seems to last forever. I only have to recharge it once a week with daily use.
*Accuracy: 4/5
-Since I have issue with the fit I feel like that compromises the accuracy of the watch. Otherwise, it seems on par with my equipment that tracks heart rate.

Par contre l’intégration avec l’application Runtastic est incomplète. Le suivi de la fréquence cardiaque enregistré par la montre n’est pas supporté dans l’application et les programmes d’entraînement de l’application n’apparaissent pas dans la montre.
Mais bon je suis satisfait en général. Bon choix d’applications a télécharger pour personnaliser la montre.
