5.0 out of 5 stars Simple & Convenient Quality
I've been considering getting a fitness watch for a while.What's put me of, and thousands of others I suspect, has been the need to charge it every few days, the variety & complexity of features - and the cost.Vívofit 4 is the complete opposite. The inbuilt replaceable battery will keep the device running for a year or more.Secondly, it's easy to use with a good range of nice basic features that will satisfy all but the real fitness experts. Then again, modern smart phones have a lot of fitness features baked in anyway. So I see little point in duplicating these on a smart watch.Vívofit 4 is comfortable, waterproof, has a smart discreet design with a colour screen & a back light.And, price wise, it's well under £100!Feature wise, it does a surprising amount. It will auto detect a number of activities, monitor sleep, tell you to move if you're being idle too long & help you to set activity goals. It'll even find your phone!The supporting Garmin Connect app is like the watch - well designed & intuitive. I also use Health Sync which enables me to sync the Vívofit data with Google Fit where, separately, I record things like heart rate, BP & weight.So, if you're looking for a good quality, easy to use, no need to charge & well designed watch with a good range of basic features, I would strongly recommend you take a look at the Vívofit 4.
5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to use, great tracker
My husbands extremely old Garmin, started to get harder to sync, Not surprisingly as it was 9 years old. I bought this as a replacement. Tbh I can’t believe how simple it’s become. Managed to pair with account on iPad, and all previous data remained live.There are some many options re the type of excercise, The watch face can be personalised via design, colour and display.If you encounter any problem, there’s lots of support out there, well worth buying
4.0 out of 5 stars It's the Niggle You Need
Fitness trackers seem to be everywhere today and of course there are many arguments for and against them which are often valid. The biggest negative is that they are inaccurate which, might be true but that does not in my view negate their benefits.And the main benefit? They become the nagging partner in your brain telling you to move, in particular walk. And no matter what cobblers is spouted about various exercises, the main thing is to move. Run, walk, hop. It makes no difference when it boils down to it when it comes to helping life an active life. Just move a bit. Move a bit more is better and what I've found over the last four years is that a fitness tracker almost forces me to do that. Okay, I am by nature a person who is generally self motivated and I am a gym fan, but as I've got older I've found it easier to talk myself out of doing a bit more now and again. It's an insidious thing and before you know it, you find that you no longer active.But, a fitness bit is a visual indicator that your activity level vs pie consumption has gone out of balance and that for me gets me back on my hind legs and moving. It's surprising how guilty you feel when presented with a record of your indolence...Now, over the last few years I've had a Fitbit - that was a bit rubbish but being an early adopter...., A Samsung Smart watch, a cheapo ten quid thing - that was great and lasted 18 months - and now this.So, accuracy. It's not bad. I know for a fact that if I get off at the big flag in Baku where I work and walk to my apartment it is exactly 5.15KM. All of my various trackers bar the first have been close enough to this distance for me to feel that they are accurate enough to be of use. All of them show my steps to be 8000 to do this -/+ 10% which, is perfectly fine for what I need.The Vivofit 4 here I've found is the lowest counting of all the ones I have had but is still close to the ballpark average, so step counter is perfectly accurate enough.The actual Vivofit 4 is small - which, is exactly what I wanted. I still prefer to have a decent watch on my wrist and thus use the tracker on my right side purely for movement and heartrate checking. And it if the Vivofit 4 was like a full sized watch I would feel a bit like Del Boy on a street corner trying to flog dodgy time pieces.The downside of being small is that the screen is also small which, for me is of no concern for the above reasons. However, if you intend this as a watch replacement then I'd say you need to look for something with a bigger face designed for that purpose.Of course the Vivofit is also about other things such as sleep and non-walking exercises which, once again is a help if you use this it get you in the groove or habit.The sleep timer seems to be accurate enough when I compare it to my actual hours of sleep according to my bedside clock.The other exercises are supposed to be automatic but I tend to set when I start and set when stopped.Now, much of what makes a fitness tracker relies on the app and when up and running it is comprehensive and has multiple options for pretty much any kind of activity you want.Firstly the slight niggle which, was when setting the app up it would not progress past the connection stage. In the end I uninstalled the app and then reinstalled it and weirdly it was then fully populated and operational. It must have dragged my information from the inevitable account settings you have done. Once working it has been fine since so I don't know. It certainly did not follow the instructions for sure when initial setup was required.As part of the app you can set up your types of activity and routines. As I said before, I am a gym fan so have set up some of my routines. I have a different one for each day of the week and the process is a long one as you pick your exercises from a drop down list which, is comprehensive but of course not always named the same as you might know it. So far out of the seven I have, three are done and it was a bit drawn out. Worthwhile in the end but you gotta take the pain if you want to do it.What else? Well, it's a battery operated watch that does not need charging. This is a good thing mostly, but of course the time will come when it needs a new battery and that depends a lot upon how you set this up. It automatically updates the app on your phone but there is a clear warning that if you set up for a very regular update you will drain your battery. I have set mine for infrequent which, I hope will give me a year of use.The fitness tracker itself is neat, small(ish) and comfortable to wear. It's unobtrusive as well - at least in black.Overall, this is probably the best tracker I've owned and so for me personally a very good bit of kit let down a very small amount by a slightly odd setup process that I still don't entirely get.
5.0 out of 5 stars great and easy to use
as described, great for getting you motivated and easy to use
3.0 out of 5 stars Long battery life for a fitness tracker. Rugged but not accurate in tracking steps.
Likes:-Easy to use and rugged. (I work as a delivery guy and this has took some knocks but still works fine).Size - I like that it's small, I dunno what the fascination is with these enormous watches/fitness trackers.Waterproof - I work outdoors and often get soaked, I've also kept this on by mistake in the shower.Dislikes:-Battery - 11 months in and the battery has just died without warning. My local stores don't seem to stock the battery either so I guess I'll have to source one online.App - The mobile phone app is terrible (Android - Tried 2 different phones ). It works intermittently at best. I ended up buying a ANT+ usb dongle and connecting it via my PC.Accuracy - As I predominantly us it as a pedometer I base my finding on this. It's unreliable as it sometimes doesn't recognise that you've been walking. On a polar opposite I have found it will sometimes announce "Goal" to signify that I've reached my daily target, I've been sat watching my TV at the time however.

Battery good; No REM and non-responsive to config cnages
The 1 year battery life is what brought me to the Vivofit4 after my Fitbit eventually died after long term hard use. It counts steps (main purpose) and monitors Sleep ( secondary purpose). Steps counting is a bit 'jumpy' with wild numbers indicated on the device until eventually settling. REM has not appeared at all. Date format on the device stubbornly refuses to change from Month/Day to day/month. Disappointed. It will be returned.
La semplicità efficace
sono molto soddisfatto di questo prodotto, in una forma leggera e comoda incorpora un ottimo lettore di passi e attività fisiche di base (corsa e camminata). Eccezionale durata di batteria e display sempre acceso sono altri pro del prodotto.Ovviamente essendo un prodotto economico e alla base dell'offerta Garmin ci sono comunque delle cose che si possono migliorare.In primis il monitor risulta piccolo, leggibile ma sempre piccolo resta... Poi il monitoraggio del sonno risulta impreciso e a volte addirittura assente.Da ex possessore di altri dispositivi della stessa serie più vecchi posso dire che il suo core è limitato alla conta dei passi giornalieri e delle attività fisiche che si possono svolgere durante la giornata.Insomma se siete alla ricerca di un piccolo rilevatore che vi dimenticherete si avere al polso che svolge pochi Compiti ma buoni siete sul prodotto giusto. Invece se siete sportivi più esigenti e volete conteggi passi, calorie e sonno più precisi allora meglio puntare su prodotti più costosi.
Bonito pero precio ABUSIVO!
Tamaño adecuado y portable. Mi intención era algo sencillo, estético para la marcha, sin depender de baterías de litio con alimentación duradera. Me ha gustado mucho y estos de Garmín saben de estas cosas. Lo malo: su excesivo precio por un producto superado en tecnología por otros de la competencia. Lo devolví por esta razón y si lo bajaran de precio un 40% lo volvería a comprar..., es su precio actual por lo que ofrece.No se puede comprender como estos señores de Garmín tengan unos precios "sobrecargados" por una tecnología que cualquier smartphone dispone a un precio 20 veces más barato... Que vayan a timar a su país (si se lo permiten) y no vengan con el cuento de políticas de empresa; o que las paguen ellos que son tan inteligentes.
Excellent bracelet d'activité
Je possédais déjà le vivofit 1, je l'ai conservé durant 2 ans, le vivofit 4 est encore mieux. Toujours une autonomie de plus d'un an grâce aux piles boutons (remplaçables par l'utilisateur), suivi des pas, de la distance et des calories brûlées, analyse du sommeil et objectif de pas quotidien personnalisé.Je recommande cet achat sans hésitation.
