Garmin Vivoactive 6 Hands-On: Everything (New) You Need to Know!

Everything you need to know about the new Vivoactive 6, hands-on and first rtun!

Garmin has just announced the new Vivoacitve 6, which brings it even closer to their mainstream consumer watch, the Venu 3. This new version adds in some 50 sport profile modes, a ton of running features including running dynamics, running power, running PacePro, course following, and on-watch workout animations. Meanwhile on the hardware side it doubles the music storage, and increases GPS connectivity.

Thankfully, unlike most other Garmin launches over the past year, Garmin didn’t raise the price on the watch. Instead, it’s kept at $299USD, including the ability to do offline music (such as Spotify, Amazon Music, and YouTube Music).

Now, this isn’t a full review yet, but rather, just a quick first-look at things, including a first run to take a crack at the expanded running metrics. Expect a full in-depth review down the road in a few weeks.
