Hybrid watches are very minimalistic so that’s why a lot of people don’t like them. Most people like to show off, not me I really love my Vivomove 3 ❤️

Your reviews are superb mate. Pace, clear straight character and the details you choose to cover provide a brilliant resource. Well done and thanks! Glad I found your page

Love the vivomove series. Great review, mike.

Thanks for a great review. A couple years ago I was given an AppleWatch which I like for a lot or things, but the latest OS made the interface so busy I am looking at going back to a hybrid for day to day. It is nice to see how far hybrids have come in the past few years.

A video on the watch that has all the health features on it would be awesome. What watch has all the health features on market. So many models but what’s the base platform that has all the health analytics? Or does any of the watches have them all. Oxygen, sleep, temp, ecg, glucose, heart rate, etc.

Love the idea of a hybrid watch but I'm torn, would you still recommend the 3 or Style or is this better hardware and software wise? Or would you wait and see what other companies, for example google, will bring to the table later this year?

Does this watch have any ways to utilize sleep tracking to wake up in light sleep stage? Some garmins have this with additional apps installed on watch or third party apps on the phone.

I reaaallly Like this! Would love a black background and rose gold frame one, but the all black one looks great. Minimal design, but still get a proper stylish watch instead of a normal smartwatch.

I’m really interested in body battery. Or something similar like whoops recovery score. This Garmin might just be the cheapest way to get it. Thing is, I would spend more to get an Apple Watch but they don’t have anything like that feature! This Garmin does look cool though!

Hi, what is an inexpensive watch, that you recommend for weight lifting and sled work. I would need the watch to display the heart rate from the polar h10 on the watch itself. If possible a watch that is rugged enough to withstand some dings. I don't you any outside running. I may occasionally bike on weekends, but nothing serious. My budget is between 200-300USD. Thank you for your help.

I've had a couple of Vivomove models and both suffered from illegible displays when outside on bright days. When are they going to do a nice looking model with a display technology the same as the Instinct ?

I would love a higher end hybrid watch from Garmin.

Garmin really got me thinking about switching platforms lately from the Galaxy Watch 1 because the move to wearOS lost the big advantage Galaxy Watches had: 3+ days of battery life. 😕 Plus Watch3 and Tizen in general will be obsolete in a few years..

Thanks for the great review! Do you know if it scratches easily and if it has any "find my mobile" device??

I wasn't sure which one to buy, but I think I know now.. Thanks!

I wish you would show more video of what it looks like to receive a phone call or a text. I really don't care about the fitness stuff, but I want know what it looks like when I am contacted and what I can do from the watch without opening my phone.

Love the style but how do you tell the time when you are using the touch screen. I noticed the hands going horizontal every time you used it.

Great video! I'm excited about this watch as well. The Quantified Scientist tested it and found that the Vivomove Sport was far more accurate re: sleep tracking than other Garmin watches (including the Fenix 7). Was this your experience as well?

I find the conecpt of hybrid watch super interesting. I think i would use them vor a more daily use or an "event" like going out etc and not for sports. That's why i like the metall look of the other vivomove versions a lot more! But i am a still confused with the garmin vivio line-up. Would you recommend the vivomove 3 and vivomove style ? Is the vivomove sport like the more sport oriented styled version of the vivomove style ? the other vivomove are already almost 2 years old.

It's a upgraded version of the vivomove hr. Awesome review

I have the HR and really waiting on a Vivomove Style2. I'd buy the sport if it had garmin pay

I wonder if the battery is only 5 days because it monitors all the time. Withings look amazing and the battery is great but I've heard it only samples every 10 minutes unless you're in a workout mode

Great video, Bro. excellent explanation of the functions and advantages of this smartwatch, I'm even beginning to believe that you work for Garmin 🤣🤣

What's the visibility like under dark conditions? E.g. being out at night or waking up in the middle of the night and looking at the time. The manual only mentions that there is an ambient sensor which manages the backlight.

i wanna buy the xiamo mi smartwatch what do you think is itt worth itt? and if i have some apps on my phone like game apps can i use them on my watch?

The quality of your videos is fantastic, but I wish you'd take us through all of the features. Saying that the watch has music controls is very cool, but seeing HOW Garmin implemented the music controls is a very important piece of the review.

I wish you went into detail about how you can use each feature. For instance, are you able to select music through the music controls, change volume, or change tracks?

Hi Mike! Received my Vivosmart on Monday and I absolutely love it! Never owned a watch and was just overwhelmed by what's out there. Took me weeks and maybe even months to chose a watch that I liked. Thanks to you I went with this brown hybrid watch. I'm glad I did because the brown on the website seemed way more lighter than in real life. I would've gotten a boring black one.

Size/bulk wise it is similar to the Apple Watch series 7 41mm?

i'm curious, is that app something that is separate from your phone? as in, could i download that app to multiple phones and be able to see the same health info from both? i have two phones, a gooogle pixel 6a i got for free as a work phone, and an iphone 12 pro max that's for personal use only. can i have this synced up to both for the garmin app?

Is the display any better than on the OG vivomove sport? because I have it and I'd say it's one of the few things which annoy me. It's not that responsive , it's din under the sun so if they fixed that on the new model I am sold

I'm considering to buy a hybrid watch from Garmin and as of specs and reviews I'm drawn between the vivomove style and the vivomove sport. Since the style is already 2 years old I'm not quite sure if it's gonna be the best purchase. Does anyone have any advice on that?

I’m wondering the exact same but about the vivomove 3, it’s only $20 more and I’m not sure of the difference other than it’s older and counts flights of stairs climbed which the sport doesn’t. But that doesn’t bother me too much.

Gaalxies just default to a digital watch. I guess it'd be cool if there was a hyper minimal hand style. I wonder if it'd be possible to make

Can you locate your phone using the watch or vice-Versa?

I currently have the Vivomove Hr and just recently found out about the Sport version. So temped. I really enjoy hybrid watches and hope there's more innovation in the future. While not a hybrid, a face I'm also intrigued by is the Garmin Lily. It's very pretty and I was temped in getting one lol
