Garmin Vivosmart 4 Activity Tracker :: Accent your style while enhancing your fitness with our vivosmart 4 activity tracker. This slim, swim-friendly wearable comes loaded with fitness and wellness features to help you make the most of a healthier, more active lifestyle. It monitors heart rate estimates at the wrist and includes helpful tools such as all-day stress tracking, a relaxation breathing timer, VO2 max and activity timers for walks, runs, strength training, pool swims and more. A wrist-based Pulse Ox estimate sensor lets you check blood oxygen saturation anytime during the day — or turn it on while you sleep. Plus, Body Battery energy monitoring helps you know when you’re primed to be active or when you may need to rest. Safe for the pool or shower, vivosmart 4 keeps you going strong with up to 7 days of battery life (excluding Pulse Ox sleep tracking) — while smart notifications with vibration alerts help you stay connected on the go (when paired with a compatible smartphone)

 Plus the automatic activities detection tends to run a bit late. As to the heart rate monitoring, I haven't put this to the test - optical HR monitors don't ever seem to be as accurate as chest mounted ones - but I can say that the peaks you see on the watch may not show up in the app. I don't know if the app rounts off peaks as outliers or what, but there's definitely missing data, maybe for a good reason, or maybe not. I don't know

  Battery life is good, though.  Phone App The phone app is mostly pretty good. I wish the sleep tracker of would show heart rate superimposed over sleep stages, but you can look up the heart rate as part of the regular heart rate monitor.  The app can't sync with Google fit

 I wish the sleep tracker of would show heart rate superimposed over sleep stages, but you can look up the heart rate as part of the regular heart rate monitor.  The app can't sync with Google fit. I'd like to keep these things synchronized. But a bigger issue than that it doesn't store the data of locally on my phone

Small and light with great battery life, but iffy pulse ox and sleep tracking

  I bought it because I have tachycardia and wanted something to warn me when my heart rate got over 100. I’d often check my heart rate and it’d be over 100 but the watch didn’t alert me.  It did always alert me every hour to move.  The pulse ox ran every night but it turns off when the watch gets to a certain battery percentage which lately it hasn’t been reliable

It’s functional but not perfect for me.

 The app connects to the hardware like lightning... so much better than fussy FitBit and Polar's inconsistent failures

Best app without subscriptions

On the inside, the Vivosmart 4 sports an optical heart rate monitor, a barometric altimeter, an accelerometer, an ambient light sensor, and Sp02 sensors. It connects to your smartphone via Bluetooth, and is also compatible with ANT+ equipment (which is most typically found in gyms). Battery life is pretty terrific, at up to seven days on a single charge with continuous heart rate monitoring and push notifications enabled.

As for accuracy, the Vivosmart 4 acquitted itself quite well in testing. On a one-mile treadmill walk at 3.5mph, it logged 1,999 steps to the 2,097 steps logged by a Yamax Digiwalker SW-200, for a respectable difference of 4.7 percent

For sleep, the tracker is equipped with Sp02 sensors that measure blood oxygen levels. It tells you the high and low of your "pulse ox" level, which is a metric that's sometimes used by medical professionals to determine whether someone has sleep apnea. It's cool to have this information, but it's up to you to contextualize what it actually means, so it might not necessarily be all that helpful.

For heart rate monitoring, I wore the Vivosmart 4 simultaneously with the Polar H10 chest strap monitor and the Fitbit Versa watch. During each test, the Vivosmart 4 was on par with the Versa, and within five to 10 beats per minute of the H10. 

Garmin Vivosmart 4 Review

 My sleep is way up with Vivosmart - it says I'm getting about 7.5 hours a night, while I averaged about 6 with the Versa. I'm pretty sure the Versa is more accurate here. The Vivosmart will often mark me as sleeping if I'm laying in bed watch TV or reading

After having two Fitbit Versa's die on me, I decided to try something else, and the Vivosmart 4 seemed to fit the bill. First off, the Vivosmart battery life is so much better than the Versa. This is huge, as I was really getting tired of having to charge the Versa every couple of days. The Vivosmart is small and comfortable, but the screen is a pain to use

Switched to this from a Fitbit Versa. Here's how it compares for me...

 It does have an automatic brightness sensor, and for the most part I could make out all of my stats and work out metrics really, really easily. The one thing I would say though, is that notifications might sometimes be a little bit more tricky to see on this. If you struggle reading smaller screens, then you might have a little bit of difficulty reading notifications that come through from either your Ios or Android device on the screen of the Vivosmart 5 just because it is so small. Unfortunately, there is no way to change the text or font size on the clock face itself

 Do take some time to go through the interface and really customize it to only see the pieces of information that actually really matter to you. One more thing to note about the Vivosmart 5 is that it does not have an altimeter, so it will be tracking elevation data using calculations from your phone. Okay, let's get into the smart Features notifications and of course the battery life, which is super important. Now, as I mentioned, Ios and Android compatibility for the Vivosmart 5

 If you struggle reading smaller screens, then you might have a little bit of difficulty reading notifications that come through from either your Ios or Android device on the screen of the Vivosmart 5 just because it is so small. Unfortunately, there is no way to change the text or font size on the clock face itself. That said, some of the main stats and metrics that you might only be interested in seeing like your steps and your heart rates do surface as really big on the screen, so that was nice to see even if notifications are a little bit small. Unfortunately, there is no always on display like there is on competitors such as the Fitbit Charge Five

 Let's check it out. [Music] I've been wearing the Vivosmart 5 for a week and I think it's a really good tracker, but at 150 it is a little bit on the high side, especially considering some of the features you don't get. I'm going to dive into all of the main features and functionality of this particular tracker. You can skip straight ahead with chapters linked in the description down there as well

The Garmin Vivosmart 5 is Deceptively Simple | Full Review

 In particular the Sleep Tracking and Pulse Ox are the highlights. I can see how well I am sleeping at night and how much oxygen is in my blood. As of now, I only have three nights of data, but two of them show a pattern of poor sleep and a solitary and short drop in SpO2 below 90% each night. It isn't low enough or long enough to suggest sleep apnea, but it is something I want to monitor - as I rarely feel refreshed in the AM

 It is as wide a typical Livestrong band. The features are simply awesome. In particular the Sleep Tracking and Pulse Ox are the highlights. I can see how well I am sleeping at night and how much oxygen is in my blood

Smaller Than Stated. Best of the Vivosmarts!

Garmin Vivosmart 5 Review: It's Missing a Few Things for $150

Wirecutter

The Steel HR is a handsome analog watch with a physical dial, a small non-touch OLED screen for notifications, some basic smartwatch features such as activity tracking, and weeks of battery life.

r/GooglePixel

r/WearOS

 It's a worthwhile purchase if you like the style, but know that its smart features come secondary to its design.

 Expect to see about five days of battery power when using workout mode regularly. If used lightly, for time and step counting only, you can easily go a month before needing a recharge.

The Withings Steel HR Sport is well designed, good looking, and comes with enough fitness features and smart notifications to remind you that it&#039;s not a traditional wristwatch—even if it looks like one.

Withings Steel HR Sport Review

I currently have an Apple Watch but I’m going to be wearing my analog watch again - I prefer the aesthetics and don’t need all the features and distractions of a smartwatch. 

I’ve read in recent reviews Fitbit often overestimates steps, and as I’ve no interest in Premium I’m a bit concerned how much is going to be put behind the subscription. 

So I’m looking at a more discreet fitness tracker, that I can wear on my opposite wrist without it looking weird. 

I have a Withings Steel HR hybrid watch. Does everything I need, had good battery life and just works. Not very flashy, but I find it very functional.

Best one in my opinion is the fossil gen 5. Zero bloat, only thing they add is fossil watch faces. Every other wearOS from say lg, moto etc add bloat like their phones do.  Only thing is battery life is a day. If you can wait for the new chip that’s already out, I would and get a watch with that. Besides that watch maybe Samsung Tizen watches. But since it’s tizen it’s limited on certain things

Technically not a smartwatch (more of a hybrid), but I love my Nokia (Withings) Steel HR.  it has a simplistic but elegant design, and it normally lasts 20-30 days per charge.

TicWatch Pro 3 here. I love this damn thing, and wearOS has always been a hard-sell for me. I pop it into Essential Mode at night before bed so that it just tracks my sleep and I get roughly 4 days out of it.

Honestly though, if the only thing you need are some notifications and basic fitness/sleep tracking, there are plenty of other options out there that don't require wearOS. Xiaomi, Fitbit, Amazfit etc. all make reasonably priced fitness bands that offer stuff like basic notifications, sleep tracking, and music controls with much better battery life.

I have a Huawei Watch GT, bought it a year ago on Aliexpress for 80$, sure it doesn't WearOS like my old Moto 360 but 5 day battery life makes all the drawbacks irrelevant. The GT2 supports music playback.
