					<description><![CDATA[Good day,
3 days after 1 year my Vivosmart HR+&#039;s screen cracked, out of the blue while playing tennis. I returned the watch and now have to pay R 2000.00 to swap the watch for a new one. Now that is what I call daylight robbery - I am so dissapointed in this service I want to shout it out! I order to limit my losses I have no choice but to do this, but I will make sure that I share this experience with everyone I know who wants to get a fitness tracker.

 Upon investigation I now realises the Vivosmart HR+ has a acrylic screen, one of the most unstable materials possible. For a watch to only last 1 year, only used while training is to say the least - rubbish. And that while I mostly play tennis (with my right arm and the watch on the left arm!) My recommendation is to rather inform possible buyers to 1) stay away from Garmin and 2) make sure you have at least a Glass lens because I can prove to you acrylic is useless. I have a laser machine and use perspex, and will never use acrylic because it is a very unstable product and is guaranteed to crack - it is just the nature of the product. And to pay for a watch after the previous one broke 3 days after the so called guarantee, is telling a story about Garmin&#039;s commitment to client service - you decide yourself ....]]></description>
