Vivoact5
I was using Fitbit for 2yrs (Fitbit Versa3 followed by Sense2) until I switched from Fitbit to Garmin after my brand new Fitbit Sense2 had s/w issues(resetting in a loop)on 2nd day of using it. I started researching online which Garmin watch is best for my needs and determined Vivoactive5 best meets my requirements. It's been almost 2 weeks I'm using it and I'm loving my Vivoactive5 . This watch is lightweight. Battery life is excellent-charge it once per week. When it's paired to phone via BT get the same notifications as phone yet charge is consistently good. I visit the gym 2 times a week and I feel it measures the steps accurately compared to Fitbit. The only drawback I feel is when phone app e.g Google maps are getting updated offline, the watch is getting notifications constantly and I feel the vibrations which can have a weird sensation on my wrist and then I've to take it off and my wrist needs to rest and relax. It's expensive compared to the Fitbit but it's worth it. P.S-I bought the Geek Squad insurance just in case(after what happened to my last Fitbit) which should be good for 2yrs.
