Meet vívoactive 6, the latest health and fitness smartwatch from Garmin

Know your body better with popular fitness, wellness and smart features—all on a bright, colorful display

Garmin has announced its newest health and fitness smartwatch with the vívoactive® 6, now with an even brighter AMOLED display. With up to 11 days of battery life, users can go about their day – and night – without stopping to recharge, making it easier to take advantage of popular health and fitness features like Body Battery™ energy monitoring, sleep coach, dozens of preloaded sports apps, new mobility workouts, and more.

“No matter your fitness goals, vívoactive 6 is designed to help you understand your body better than ever before.

From your morning routine to your mid-day workout session to your nighttime wind down and everything in between, this smartwatch will be with you every step of the way.” — Susan Lyman, Garmin Vice President of Consumer Sales and Marketing

Start the day off right

A brand new feature on the smartwatch is Garmin’s new “smart wake alarm” feature that looks at lighter sleep stages during a pre-selected window of time to gently wake users with a light vibration. Once awake, the morning report provides an overview of last night’s sleep, recovery insights, Body Battery, daily calendar and more. It also includes heart rate variability (HRV) status, an early indicator of overall wellness and how prepared the body is for the day ahead. And now, users can customize the report even more with different themes, data and inspirational messages.

Never miss a beat

Packed with key health and wellness features, vívoactive 6 can help keep users going strong all day.

● Body Battery: View energy levels throughout the day to find the best times for activity and rest. Get even more details and personal insights on how sleep, naps, daily activities and high stress impact energy levels.

● Sleep coach: Receive a sleep score and personalized coaching for how much sleep is recommended and keep track of different sleep stages, naps and other key metrics such as Pulse Ox 2 and HRV status.

● HRV status: Monitor heart rate variability while sleeping to better understand overall health and how the body is navigating the challenges of life and environment.

● Stress tracking: See how calm, balanced or stressful moments affect the body throughout the day.

● Meditation and mindful breathing: Reduce stress, anxiety and more with guided meditation practices or start a breathwork activity to track respiration rates and stress levels.

● Pulse Ox: Track blood oxygen saturation while awake or asleep.

● Women’s health: Track a menstrual cycle or pregnancy and receive exercise and nutrition guidance.

They can also access Garmin Coach running and strength training plans—several of which adapt daily based on performance, recovery and health metrics to help users prepare for their next race, train for a milestone or improve overall fitness. In addition to keeping tabs on daily steps and calories burned, vívoactive 6 can track moderate and vigorous intensity minutes, VO2 max and more. For wheelchair users, wheelchair mode tracks daily pushes and provides weight shift alerts, handcycle workouts and more.

While out for a run, keep track of crucial running dynamics like cadence, stride length and ground contact time.
