battery replacement

can the battery be replaced

  • The battery is not "user replaceable." Searching YouTube, I see some have attempted it. I suggest reaching out to Garmin Support first before attempting anything like this.

  • I have replaced the battery in one of my vivoactive 3 watches.   It's not really difficult to do if you are generally handy and are comfortable with taking the unit apart.   However,  the replacement batteries are not original Garmin branded products,  and I found that I really didn't gain any significant increase in battery life compared to the 5 year old original battery....... maybe an additional 1/2 day. 

  • Garmin support doesn't support the vívoactive 3 anymore. Out of support was their message. So I'm forced to buy a new watch
