User questions & answers

Question:	How reliable is the Verizon Connected series when you do not have your phone on you? I have not been able to find any reviews on this specific one
Answer:	I don't know about the band size, but the diameter of the cases on most all Expeditions is 40mm....That's too large. It looks like an alarm clock on your arm...I returned the one I bought. Having said that, I would like to have one with a case diameter not exceeding 35mm.
Question:	Will the Verizon connected version still connect to wifi
Answer:	There are eight (8) holes in the strap.
Question:	Does this work with Samsung galaxy
Answer:	I think the band is OK for occasional moisture such as rain, would not wear it the shower or say canoing or kayaking. It has a synthetic suede like backing that absorbs water and takes awhile to dry, especially while worn. I would be OK immersing the watch in water such as swimming ( not diving) but would swap out the exisitng band for a nylon one for those activities. Band looks nice though and is comfortable ( so long as it is not wet)
Question:	Does lte cellular of this watch work outside us
Answer:	In December 2020 this listing included models where the the crown is inset into the bezel for protection (40mm) and models where the crown is unprotected (37mm). In 1944 the standard military field watch was 35mm to 37mm but today 37mm is considered a small watch for women. Some of the most expensive reproductions of WWII watched are also 36mm or 37mm.

With vívoactive 3 Music, leaving your phone at home can be a choice instead of a cause for panic. No matter your primary phone carrier, you can get a low-cost subscription to Verizon’s reliable network that gives you access to phone-free texting, music downloads and safety features.

Your Watch, Your Music:

Then queue up those songs for easy listening through headphones (sold separately) enabled with BLUETOOTH technology.

No phone? No worries:

Connecting your vívoactive 3 Music smartwatch with Verizon lets you take advantage of phone-free texting, and safety and tracking features. For example, if anything should happen, hold the watch’s button until the watch vibrates three times to activate the assistance feature, which discreetly sends a message with your real-time location to your preloaded emergency contacts. That way, help has an easier time finding you. The watch also has incident detection, which automatically sends a message with your real-time location to your preloaded emergency contacts if an incident is detected during an outdoor walk, run or bike activity. Or let friends and family follow your activities in real time whenever you like by simply initiating the LiveTrack feature from the watch. And that’s not all.

Pay Your Way

Daily Fitness and Stress Tracking

With help from Elevate wrist-based heart rate technology, vívoactive 3 lets you monitor key aspects of your fitness and stress to show how your body responds under various circumstances. For example, it’s able to estimate your VO2 max and fitness age — 2 indicators of physical fitness that can often improve over time with regular exercise. It also tracks your heart rate variability (HRV), which is used to calculate and track your stress level. vívoactive 3 can make you aware when physical or emotional sources cause your stress level to rise so you can find a way to relieve the pressure.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this have voice prompts? Specifically want to use it for Tabata training. i.e. with app that counts down work/rest intervals
Answer:	It does not have speaker, so unfortunately no.
Question:	Does this watch automatically track exercise activity like Fitbit, or do you have to manually start an activity (e.g. a run) from the watch
Answer:	The Garmin keeps track of everything a Fitbit does, steps ,heart rate, calories, etc. That said, if youre doing something "special", like a long run, by pushing 1 button (top rt.) and touching the watch screen once, it will connect with gps and after you're run, will show you a map of youre route with that run's stats.

Its VERY easy to learn, most activities are done with 1 or 2 touches!

User questions & answers

Question:	Is there a waterproof mode
Answer:	I was unable to use these as they did not fix my fixture also. The product I bought that works in my fixture is a Sylvania bulb made for my fixture. They are a little shorter but the main thing is at the end of each bulb is a rounded rectangle. When putting in the fixture you need to rotate them and they snap in. I had some problems trying to find what worked in my fixture. I ended up going to a lighting place in my area with a sample bulb and they took care of it immeadiately.
Question:	How does the always on mode affect the battery life? Can you still get to ~5 days on a charge
Answer:	these bulbs are 12volt for rv fixtures
Question:	Does the Garmin Venu´s display stay permanently on
Answer:	It includes the prongs and measure 11 and 7/8's. Working well for under counter lighting.
Question:	How is this watch different from Vivoactive 4 besides the display
Answer:	I bought 6 F8T5 halophosphor long tubes for little over $1.00 each.They are made by "CH LIGHTING" using the rare earth halophosphor powder on their line of products.They advertise it as of stable quality, reliable, long life span and energy saving (8 W) It has a 3000K degree color (closer to tungsten than fluorescent) which is comfortable to eyes. A day-light tube has close to 5000K or 6000K degrees which it will be hard on my eyes. I think they are good bulbs, I am using one only at this time. However, I have a problem: after 2 months the bulb doesn't start completely at the first start and flickers a bit. I decided to turn the bulb OFF and ON again and the bulb works just fine, pleasant color and I leave it on even in the day-light. You know, living in Seattle is so dark in the winter that we are moving like zombies and you need to have some light on most of the time. I am using also an old light appliance I found in the basement 25 years ago so I don't know if this bulb has a slight issue or my old appliance/starter has an issue being old. I will test another bulb next month. But I encourage you to buy it, the price is right and I am sure it is going to work. What I like is that it doesn't create electromagnetic fields interfering with my portable radios or phone.

User questions & answers

Question:	It doesn't track HR in water, does anyone know if it is compatible with a swim strap or if it still counts calories
Answer:	It believe it is compatible with a swim strap. If you are just playing around in a pool, it will still sample your HR. But once you have it in swim mode, it disables HR and you the HR graph for the day shows an empty spot for your swim workout.
Question:	I know this has a built in heart rate sensor that monitors 24/7 and I like that. However, can you add a chest strap device to it for better readings
Answer:	yes: manual says "... is also compatible with ANT+ chest heart rate monitors", it also says: "When both wrist-based heart rate and ANT+ heart rate data are available, your device uses ANt+ heart rate data"
Question:	My wrist is about 5 1/2-5 3/4 inches, the distance from radius to ulna is about 1 1/2". Will this rest on my wrist properly
Answer:	My wrist is the same exact size and it fits wondetfully. I was worried about it being too big but it doesnt flop around in the wind like I was expecting and I still have room to go tighter.
Question:	Do each of you basically look at the product description to answer people's questions? That is, since none of you actually own this product yet
Answer:	I only answer questions for products I purchase, and I answer to the best of my ability. If the product was a gift, I so state, but I respond. Amazon provides an excellent vehicle to disseminate customer experiences and information. Of course, just like most things these days, there are the few do otherwise.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the Garmin Swim 2 compatible with an iPhone
Answer:	You have to go forward with the time setting, 24 hours for each day. I just reset mine this weekend to the correct date.
Question:	se puede cambiar la caratula
Answer:	I've had this watch for about 9 months. I've worn it during climbs up multiple 14,000+ ft peaks, subfreezing weekend camp outs, a week-long backpacking trek in the Grand Canyon, and several games of kickball. Besides some barely-noticeable scratches, it's held up very well. Would definitely buy again.
Question:	Does device show lap count, avg time per lap, total swim time and downloadable history? Please show pic of outputs. Thanks
Answer:	Hard to say, depends on wrist size. I bought this for my fiance who is 6'2" 200+lbs and it fits his wrist well.
Question:	Has anyone used this watch frequently in salt water open swimming? Thanks
Answer:	Yes. This watch is great but it is very loud. That would be my only "con". I've had it for about two years. I can hear it when I use a public bathroom. Never bothers me in the drawer or in the stand at night, though.

Pool and Open Water

Where there’s water, this watch works to track your workout. Using built-in GPS, you can train in lakes, oceans and rivers while recording distance, pace, stroke count, stroke rate, stroke distance and SWOLF score to gauge swimming efficiency. If swimming in the pool is your preference, take advantage of all that and advanced pool features, including a new auto rest feature that tracks your rests and swim intervals automatically — no button presses required.

Advanced Swim Features

Advanced training deserves advanced features, which is why we added even more to the Garmin Swim 2 smartwatch. Critical Swim Speed approximates your anaerobic threshold speed, and you can use it to guide your training and track your progress. Turn-based pacing alerts make it easy to stay on target and meet goals. Drill logging enables you to track time and distance for drills such as kicking, one-arm swimming, or sculling drills. And when you need a break, Garmin Swim 2 lets you track your rests with two types of rest timers.

Designed for Water

Garmin Swim 2 was designed to never slow you down in the water — it’s slim and lightweight. The always-on, full-color Garmin Chroma Display technology that makes it easy to read, even in direct sunlight. With its reliable five-button interface, you can easily start workouts, view different data, log drills or change your settings without worry of water interfering.

Stay Connected

Once paired with your compatible smartphone, you can stay connected with smart notifications and automatic uploads to the Garmin Connect online community.

24/7 Wear

Beyond its swimming capabilities, the Garmin Swim 2 smartwatch offers wellness monitoring features and fitness tracking, which make it great for all-day wear. Features such as all-day stress tracking and advanced sleep monitoring help swimmers manage their overall health by providing crucial insights that can be used to maximize their training. Set move goals, track steps, monitor body battery, perform guided breathing, and use it to track workouts — including cycling and running — out of the water.
