The display on your vivosmart will quit, and you'll have to mail it back to Garmin for an exchange. Period. If you are lucky, you will be able to upgrade to a different watch. If you aren't lucky, you'll have to exchange for another vivosmart which will also quit. And the heart rate monitor is fair quality, just a bit uncomfortable. Not recommended.

I got a viviosmart. The screen started getting bad lines within a few months. After a year, about 7 lines were completely dead pixels. It would also randomly disconnect from bluetooth from my iphone. I do not recommend it at all.

GForce360There is an option on them to time your physical activity and record its information seperatly so you can reveiw your stats on a specific activity. I have not seen an option to show laps on my unit.

Wrist based HR is not as accurate (it's not on any company) vs a chest worn band. But this drop seems to be marketed at the casual person, who will *probably* in the end, never use the HRM, after the novelty wears off. Those HRM bands are fantastic if you are a runner or doing any sort of physical activity. However, if you care about accurately tracking your HR and the stats associated with it (cadence, GPS, elevation, etc...) you will probably want a more dedicated Garmin fitness watch to pair with the HRM.
Regardless, it's still a great price for the items.

Why not buy the GARMIN VIVOSMART HR which does not require the extra heart strap?

sandeeptHave you ever tried a wristband heart monitor? Unless they are using the new Mio continual optical sensor (expensive and large, usually only on watch size types) they are garbage, with a less than 50% accuracy at workout-level BPM's. I believe the Garmin Forerunner 225 uses the continual sensor, but for $300 that's quite a bit more than $100.

xxsilenceThat's sort of accurate but a bit misleading. A good heart strap is better than using the wrist. If you take any average wrist based HR monitoring (eg Apple Watch, Samsung, FitBit) it is worse than say a Forerunner 220. If you want accurate HR monitoring, you should not buy middle of the road wrist base HRMs. (I'm excluding the 225/235 because those are in a different class)
However, this is the absolute bottom of the barrel HR strap. My wife has one and has never got it to work reliably. A wrist based one will not be any worse. This has been my experience from using a 210, 310, 620, 910 and a few other brands.
