The Garmin Vivoactive GPS Heart-Rate Monitor Smartwatch combines a full-featured multi-sports trainer with a lifestyle activity monitor in a thin and lightweight unit that you can wear 24/7 just like an everyday watch, making it the ultimate in wearable technology.
This high-tech and very versatile unit is the only wrist unit you need to help keep you on track for the healthy, active lifestyle you want for yourself.
The Garmin Vivoactive GPS HRM Smartwatch is supplied complete with an ANT+ heart-rate monitor as well as integrated Garmin sports apps which include GPS-enabled running, biking and golfing plus tracking of swimming and general activity.
When paired with your smartphone, Garmin Vivoactive smart notifications can keep you in touch with leisure and work communications with vibration alert and display a choice of visual alerts for calls, texts, emails etc so this really is a smart watch that blends in with and enhances even the busiest and most fully rounded lifestyle.
The dial features a superb sunlight-readable, high-resolution colour touchscreen and you can customise the display with what will be an expanding range of free face designs, widgets and apps from the Garmin Connect IQ store.
Play harder, work smarter, live better with built-in sports apps to keep you active while smart notifications allow you to stay in contact with pressing work matters, all helping you keep your life in balance. The high-resolution, colour touchscreen stays readable in direct sunlight so you can view your stats when you step out of the office for a run. The ultra-thin 8-mm case is comfortable to wear all day working for you in the office or on the golf course. You will not have to worry about your Garmin Vívoactive keeping up with your active days; the rechargeable battery lasts through all your activities with up to 3 weeks [4] in watch/activity-tracking mode or up to 10 hours [4] with GPS use.
The Garmin Vivoactive GPS HRM Smartwatch features built-in sports apps that track your stats even when you are away from your smartphone. Simply tap to choose from GPS-enabled running, golfing and cycling apps plus swimming and activity tracking.
Whether you are training for a 5k race or just to stay in good shape, the running app uses GPS to capture essential running data such as distance and pace. A built-in accelerometer plus wrist-based speed and cadence trackers eliminate the need for a separate foot pod when running on an indoor track or treadmill and when GPS is unavailable. You can set up vibration alerts for heart rate, pace and run/walk intervals. Other training features include Auto Lap and Auto Pause. Automatic sync with Garmin Connect Mobile gives you a post-run summary including calories burned and signals if you scored any personal records such as your fastest or longest run to date.
The GPS-enabled cycling app measures time, distance, speed and calories. It is compatible with sensors such as heart-rate monitor (included), speed [1] and cadence [1] to measure your progress on training rides as well as on daily commutes.
You can pair the Garmin Vivoactive GPS HRM Smartwatch with your compatible smartphone [2] to download course maps from the Garmin golf course database of over 38,000 courses worldwide to play favourite and new courses. The golfing app keeps maps updated and tallies hole number with its par score. The GPS measures lay up and dogleg distances as well as distances to the front, middle and back of the greens to improve its usefulness to you over the entire hole. The individual strokeplay scorecard lets you see if you are under or over par. You can measure shot distance at the press of a button while the round timer records your time on the course and the built-in accelerometer tracks your steps.
Auto Length accelerometer-based technology automatically gauges total and interval distance swum; laps; calories burned; session average, interval and length pace as well as stroke count, including number of strokes per length and interval and session averages. The swimming app can calculate your efficiency with swolf (swimming/golf functions), which adds the time and the number of strokes it takes to swim a pool length. You can view your time and interval distance at a glance and Interval Count lets you pause and then seamlessly resume your workout.
The very slim case will not hamper your stroke through the water and its 50-metre water rating means you can wear the Garmin Vivoactive while you swim, let alone while you sweat or shower, without worries.
The Garmin Vívoactive follows your progress even when you are not engaged in sports practice. The activity tracking app monitors your steps to learn your current activity level then assigns an attainable daily step-count goal. As you reach your milestones, the device will adjust your goal for the next day. The red move bar appears on the display after 1 hour of inactivity and builds when Vívoactive senses you have been sitting too long. Just walk for a couple of minutes to reset the move bar. Set the sleep mode when you go to bed and Vívoactive will monitor your overnight rest pattern.
The Garmin Vívoactive also tracks your calories burned.
The Garmin Vivoactive GPS HRM Smartwatch gently vibrates to alert you to all the same notifications you receive on your compatible Bluetooth-enabled smartphone [3] so you can, for example, receive caller ID and missed call information for incoming phone calls. Text message notifications include sender information and message and email messages come with sender and subject.
Vívoactive also displays notifications from Facebook, Twitter and other social media platforms as well as other mobile apps including weather alerts and temperature. Simply touch and swipe the screen to read more or clear the screen with just the press of a button.
The Garmin Vívoactive lets you control the tunes on your music player, locate your phone and let your friends and family track your activities in real time with Live Track. You can also remotely control a VIRB Elite action camera [1].
You can personalise the Garmin Vívoactive with free downloads from the Garmin Connect IQ store. You can customise your watch face, add data fields and get apps and widgets that provide information at a glance.
Stay up to date on your progress for each of the built-in activities with automatic syncs with Garmin Connect Mobile. You can earn virtual badges for extra motivation, join online challenges and connect, compete and compare with friends and family around the world. You can also view your history and your stats directly on the smartwatch face.
This version of the Garmin Vívoactive GPS HRM Smartwatch has a white case (a black case version is also available). Additional synthetic straps are available to buy which give you a choice of colours and there are also black and white leather options.
