Garmin Vivoactive 3 Smartwatch
Smartwatches, they’ve become more and more powerful over the years. While playing sports and playing your favorite songs, smartwatches, also called fitness watches and Fitbits, are designed to keep up with you no matter how active your lifestyle. The Garmin Vivoactive 3 Smartwatch has built-in music storage, which means you can bring your music with you wherever you go. However, this device has much more than just music playing abilities. It can keep track of your heart rate, and comes preloaded with a variety of sports and health related apps. Whether you’re monitoring your heart rate, or keeping track of your steps when you’re walking, you’ll find the Garmin Vivoactive 3 Smartwatch will suit your fitness needs and style.
Since there are over 15 preloaded apps, you’ll always find a fun way to stay active. Whether you’re planning on going golfing for the day, a long bike ride, a relaxing yoga class, or even trying something different like stand-up paddle boarding, the Vivoactive’s built-in GPS will keep track of your chosen activity, even without a phone connection. In order to keep up with all your outdoor activity the Vivoactive 3 Smartwatch isn’t only weather resistant; it’s also waterproof, so you can keep wearing it even when your swimming or in the shower. The display is also easy to read, even in direct sunlight, and is protected with extra-durable Corning Gorilla Glass. With the integrated Side Swipe interface, you can easily quickly scroll and navigate through your menus and widgets.
The Vivoactive 3 is our first wearable product to feature Garmin Pay, the app which lets you pay for purchases utilizing your watch. You can use it in the same places that let you tap your card to pay. Next time you forget your wallet in your locker or car, you can still complete your purchase with a simple tap and go. It's also compatible with Garmin’s Connect IQ store. On this store, you can download watch faces, widgets, and apps that help you personalize your smartwatch. You can check the status of your Uber, turn on the lights at home with SmartThings, and even check the weather with the AccuWeather MinuteCast app. With apps like the free Face It app, you’ll be able to customize your watch face to make it unique. Once you download the app, you can choose any photo from your image library, make edits, and set it as you watch’s face.
You’ll never have to worry about a dull workout schedule. You can create a custom running, cycling, cardio, or strength workout, and download it straight to your watch. The Vivoactive Smartwatch will then keep track of your exercises, reps, sets, and rest time. With the assistance of Elevate’s wrist-based heart rate technology, the Vivoactive 3 will monitor your health, like during a workout or when stressed, showing how your body reacts under different circumstances. For example, after monitoring you for a bit, it will be able to estimate your VO2 max and fitness age, which are two major indicators of physical fitness. It also monitors your heart rate variability (HRV), which calculates and records your stress level. Since the Vivoactive 3 tracks your stress levels, it can make you aware when physical or emotional sources are causing your stress to rise, so you can relax and reduce the pressure.
It’s a fact, you can’t pause life; but with the Vivoactive 3 Smartwatch, you can stay connected to yours while playing hard or working out. You can pair your watch with a compatible smartphone, and start receiving and responding to texts, viewing social media posts, read emails, and much more. When you’ve completed your workout, your activities will be automatically uploaded to the Garmin Connect online fitness community. When your activities are synced with Garmin Connect, you’re doing more than simply uploading data. Garmin Connect is also an online community where people like you can connect and compete by joining workout challenges, celebrating other’s successes, and share your own triumphs. Garmin Connect is free, and available on both web and smartphones with the Garmin Connect Mobile app.
