Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've had this for 6 months now and really wanted to like it. I use it for biking, running, swimming, walking, strength training and everyday tracking. My first vivoActive was a great watch. This one has issues. The biggest one is that the HR monitor doesn't work well during ANY type of activity. I've tried it in all positions on my forearm, inside and outside the wrist, left and right arm, and at all tightnesses. It just rarely gives a stable and accurate heart rate. The watch continually drops the connection with my bike cadence sensor. The band is textured but it has already worn smooth in places. It occasionally irritates my skin. The button is showing signs of wearing out, not always working on the first press. The touchscreen isn't particularly accurate so I often end up choosing something I didn't intend to press, and the "strength training" workout requires a double-tap of the screen that almost never works. This is all too bad because it's not a bad looking watch and seems durable. It just doesn't function as advertised. Although I've been a loyal Garmin user, my next watch may be a fitbit.
