The editors didn't like
The tiny touch display is hard to navigate. There are no physical buttons. It lasts longer in watch-only mode but won't track fitness
Attractive design, Decent battery life, Wrist-based heart-rate monitoring, Some activities are automatically recorded, Offers several wellness features
Swiping motion can be finicky, Fit is challenging on smaller wrists, Poor screen visibility in daylight, Workout data accuracy is questionable
A quality hybrid watch that's best for general wellness tracking and basic smart features.The Garmin Vivomove HR isn't the watch to reach for when you want to accurately log running or cycling workouts, but if you want a larger bird's-eye view of your we...

The tiny touch display is hard to navigate. There are no physical buttons. It lasts longer in watch-only mode but won't track fitness, and the glass body can collect scuffs
Garmin's heart-tracking blend of fashion watch and fitness watch is a great choice for everyday watch wearers who want a fully embedded fitness experience...
Can be used as a watch, no phone required, Stylish enough to wear all day
Inaccurate sleep tracking, Display is difficult to see in sunlight, Lightweight workout features
I love that the Vivomove HR's face never gives away its smart features until you want to see them. The design of the display, which is hidden until you raise your wrist, is brilliant. But this hybrid smartwatch suffers from an identity crisis. It wants to...

This is another really good device from Garmin which ticks all the boxes for your average users. There's plenty of activity tracking options, sleep tracking, good battery life and plenty of data that can be analysed in the app itself.The engineering effor...

Lightweight and comfortable, Lots of fitness features, Looks great
Logging activities can be fiddly, Smeary screen, Mediocre battery life
Slightly underwhelming battery life isn't reason enough to not buy the Garmin Vivomove HR, however. If you're looking for a hybrid smartwatch that logs your steps, sleep, heart rate and stress in a package that both looks great and is fairly priced, it's...
Abstract: If you want a smartwatch that looks like a normal watch your options are limited. Hybrid smartwatches mix the looks of a classic watch with smart functionality and should really be more popular than they are. But thanks to limited choice and consumer disi...
The Garmin Vivomove HR is a fine looking hybrid smartwatch that is best at being a very subtle activity tracker. It lacks GPS, but makes up for it with clever design, a heart rate monitor and great battery life.If you want to regularly track runs then you...

Looks smart, Solid gym tracking, Decent battery life
Screen is not clear in bright sunlight, Fiddly touchscreen, No GPS
Is the Garmin Vivomove HR a hit or a miss? It depends on the kind of activity you want to track and, strangely enough, where you live.It doesn't have GPS, the top feature of many Garmin watches, so is not a great fit for serious runners. And if you live i...

Better at fitness than it first appears, Fairly good battery life, Supports notifications, including WhatsApp, Uses the same app as Garmin's advanced watches
No GPS, Screen visibility only okay in bright light, Design could do with more refinement
The Garmin Vivomove HR is a very smart take on a watch that initially doesn't appear to be smart at all. It's a minimalist watch that after a few taps turns into a surprisingly good fitness tracker. More than just a step counter, it has a barometer and a...
