vívosmart® 3

I actually ended up getting a vivosmart to wear on R wrist that’s a little more discreet. On non workout days or when the epix is charging I’ll wear it with my mechanicals.

I’ll be the first to admit it’s not perfect, you do have to sync to the Connect app. But if you do it right, your step tracking, health metrics, and sleep metrics should be OK! I would just not recommend the vivosmart for running without your phone since it lacks its own GPS.

Moonwatch SS and a Garmin vivosmart daily. The vivosmart is small and discrete. It gives me simple notifications, battery life is multi day, and does basic health tracking. Doesn’t feel like I am dual watching. Garmin Fenix 6 when I am exercising or doing something manual. Large readable, light to wear and hardy. No risk of damage for the nice watch.

I have the vivosmart, its sleep tracking is crap. Doesn't the Fenix do sleep tracking as well?

This is super useful. Been comparing devices for a while and the Oura bias is real but the HRV data is actually solid. What surprises me is how bad Garmin is at wake detection. 27% for Vivosmart is brutal. I track with Fitbit and the nocturnal HRV has been pretty consistent but now wondering if I should look at Oura for better sleep staging. Anyone here switched from Fitbit to Oura and noticed actual differences in actionable data?

My old Garmin vivosmart definitely does not wait ten minutes. I had the alert set too low and it would go off within a minute of standing.
