    It does everything I need it to do. Tracking steps seems to be slightly off like in some other reviews but for tracking workouts it’s been perfect.

    All garmin products are great, but my wife loves this one. It's got everything she needs. She has small wrists, and its not too bulky at all.

    It's a nice smart watch with lots of features for the price range, however the whole reason I bought it was to monitor my heart and the menu doesn't allow simple access to the HBPM, like always on or even one touch options. You have to wrestle a menu each time. The fitness app is really good though. This watch wasn't for my needs, so I went with Withings and I couldn't be happier.

    This was the best purchase! I switched from the samsung galaxy watch 4 and i will never go back. Ive had apple watches in the past too and this is better by far. The battery life last 1.5-2weeks on one charge depending on usage. The excercise tracking is easy and more accurate. You can still receive messages and use quick reply or type out your own responsss. 10/10!! Im a garmin owner for life.

    Excellent fit and functionality! I love all the watch faces so you can have the customization of your choice. Also the ability to create your own with linked apps. The amount of activities and fitness tracking capabilities are the stand out of a garmin watch however, and the vivoactive 5 is a testament to that!

    I have used fitness trackers in the past, but I needed to take a step forward with a watch to do more. I have used Garmin products before and was pleased with them and the Garmin Connect app. So, I studied the products and decided the Vivoactive 5 was what I wanted. Best Buy had one in the store that I could purchase right away. I like the security of buying things there that can be checked if there is a problem and are covered under my membership.

    Really good tracker, has lots of features, allows me to set an activity so that my steps are not counted when I am driving the school bus, I just wish they would add driving as an activity so that it would show as the correct activity. But all in all great watch and tracker. It shouldn't have taken me so long to come back to Garmin.
