I ordered a refurbished model. The body battery is off by 30-50 points compared with my Vivasmart 4.0 consistently. Distance is off by ½ mile compared to my 4.0 and my GPS phone. I walk moderately for 35 minutes and it gives me credit for 80 minutes towards my 150 weekly. Garmins says it has an updated algorithm. I've had it for 3 weeks and after 8 and 9 hours sleep I have yet to attain a Body Battery in the morning of 100. I am returning it. Either my Vivo 4 that i have had for 4 years has been wrong or this one is incorrect. Everything on my 4 has lined up with sleep, exercise and distances.
I was looking for a relatively modest watch. It fits the bill for the most part. The metrics are good but I was not thrilled by the battery life. I had to charge everyday even though they claimed up to 10 days of battery life. I returned the item and replaced it with an Amazfit helio band. I have not been looking for a fancy smart watch but a good health tracker with lower maintenance and that's the reason for my decision.
It was refurbished and it's working perfectly. The only issue is that the don't include an USB-c charging block and the Garmin will not charge without it.
To see the step count one must double tap. To wake up the watch one must double tap. The flip of the wrist activation works sometimes, sometimes not. ??

Not very functional for step count if that’s an important feature.
To see the step count one must double tap. To wake up the watch one must double tap. The flip of the wrist activation works sometimes, sometimes not. ??
