Garmin vivomove HR

43 mm, Fiber-reinforced polymer, L

Product details

Chic and fit in the twinkling of an eye with the vívomove HR, a fashionable hybrid smartwatch with touchscreen and an unobtrusive display. The clock hands not only show the time, they also move on the
touchscreen as you watch messages, your heart rate, and more. The device stores the number of steps and calorie consumption while keeping an eye on your well-being, for example by means of all-day stress-level tracking. Suitable for wrist circumference from 138-215 mm.

Two worlds have been harmoniously combined: the watch hand of a traditional watch and a touch screen with an inconspicuous display. The Smart display only appears when you quickly raise your arm to look at the watch. When the touch screen is used, the clock hands even move dynamically, but they display the correct time again as soon as you're done.

Almost every day has stressful moments. How much stress do you really have? The stress level tracking of the vívomove HR-Smartwatch tells you exactly whether you have a quiet, balanced or strenuous day or are somewhere in between. If your stress level increases during the course of the day, you know that you should take a break and perhaps use it to prevent headaches or other physical symptoms. The relaxation timer supports you during a breathing exercise to lower your stress level.

The vívomove HR is designed to look good and help you feel good. The watch's sports tools give you a good overview of your current fitness level. The heart rate measurement at the wrist calculates your VO2max. It can also determine your sports age, which you can improve in the long run through hard work and regular training.

Many fitness trackers are still relatively unattractive. This is not the case with the Garmin Vivimove HR, which has a classic watch design and many smart functions at a relatively low weight. It is operated via an OLED touch display that sits under the watch glass and only becomes visible when you tap it - no button or crown was used...

The three new entry-level wearables score with many functions, long battery life and successful designs. The Connect app is clearer than before, but the operation of the devices is still too complicated. And the automatic sport recognition is stingy with detailed data.

At first glance, Garmin's Vivomove HR looks like a normal and elegant wristwatch. Its OLED display in the lower area of the watch face only comes on after activation or when the iOS, Android or Windows phone connected via Bluetooth Smart sends notifications about calls, appointments or text messages...
