Garmin Launches The vívoactive 6
2 April 2025
Garmin have announced vívoactive® 6, its newest health and fitness smartwatch 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.
The vívoactive® 6 is perfect for runners. Keep track of crucial running dynamics like cadence, stride length and ground contact time and use the running power feature to see how much power is being applied to better manage effort and fine-tune training. To prepare for race day, PacePro™ provides runners with grade-adjusted pacing guidance based on course elevation and personal pacing preferences. Following a workout, the workout benefit and recovery time tools can help users understand how their workout benefits their body and see how much time is needed to recover before taking on their next fitness challenge.
You’ll also stay connected with vívoactive 6. Receive text messages, emails and alerts when paired to a compatible iPhone® or Android™ smartphone. Those with an Android phone can also respond to texts using the on-watch keyboard. Safety and tracking features help provide peace of mind by sending a message with the user’s live location (when available) to chosen emergency contacts if they feel unsafe or if an incident is detected. While out and about, breeze through certain checkout lines or transit systems with Garmin Pay™ contactless payments and download songs and playlists from Spotify®, Amazon Music and Deezer (subscription required) for phone-free listening. What’s more, see health and fitness information in the Garmin Connect™ app and download apps, watch faces and more from the Connect IQ™ Store right on the watch, or find more options in the smartphone app.
Featuring a lightweight, aluminium bezel and silicone band, vívoactive 6 comes in Black/Slate, Bone/Lunar Gold, Jasper Green and Pink Dawn. Available to order on Garmin.com on April 4th, vívoactive 6 has a suggested retail price of £279.99.
