Not only do you not have to pay for any subscription, you truly find your bodys message. From being too stressed to not sleeping enlugh, knowing how i can help my body is amazing. I got the watch at 85% and it took a week for me to charge it. Super light weight and fashionable. 10/10!

The Garmin allows me to completely track all of my health information so that I stay informed and know where I need to/can improve. I also share my information with my Dr so she can see important health information about me at my follow up appointment. I love what I’m able to accomplish by having the Garmin and all of the information!

I went into Best Buy with the intention of buying an Apple Watch. However, I mainly used the Apple Watch to track fitness activities. I heard about Garmin being far superior in terms of accuracy with GPS, and overall health data, so I decided to get a vivoactive 5.
I have really enjoyed the watch in the nearly 2 months I’ve had it. Battery life is far superior to an Apple Watch; I charge my Garmin once every 10 days or so, whereas I had to charge the Apple Watch nearly every day.
Some of my other favorite features: Sleep Metrics, Run Tracking, Strength Tracking (it knows what muscles you’re working just my how you’re moving), etc.
I believed I would not like it due to missing out on the talk/text features of the Apple Watch, however I soon realized that wasn’t a huge dealbreaker for me as my phone works just fine. And, versions like the Venu 3 support talk/text.
All in all - amazing watch, will eventually upgrade to Epix but for now I love this one.

Great watch for getting started into fitness tracking! Great weight and abilities for the price. If you’re just getting started into fitness this is a great watch for you.

Purchased this for my boyfriend who is big into fitness. He loves it! I enjoyed learning about all of the cool features over the days of him using it, i wanted one myself. I bought this watch for him thinking it had an altimeter and barometer as stated in the features and it unfortunately does not. I didnt find this out until I received my own that he bought me a few days ago. I do a lot of stair stepper workouts at the gym and also have stairs in our house, so im quite disappointed in this lack of features that are clearly stated in the features section to be included. But despite that, I am overall pretty pleased with the watch. You would just think for the price it would come with all the bells and whistles listed and if it didnt, it shouldnt list them. Battery life is great, and we absolutely love the body battery and sleep scores!

I am absolutely in love this this watch! Switched from an Apple Watch gurl for YEARS and I’m already impressed with the options and capabilities for this Garmin watch. Would reccomend!

Great watch, so many cool features. Tons of pre downloaded workouts, takes out all the planning for you. Just scroll through the list of different types of work, cardio, strength, hiit, running, the list goes on. Great watch for the beginner and for the advanced. 12 day battery life, 21 day on power saving mode. Garmin vivo active 5 truly delivers

Love this watch! Tracks all the essentials: sleep, body battery, steps, etc. The battery life on the watch is excellent, it really does last longer than a week.

I use this watch everyday for work and it far exceeds my expectations it’s very comfortable I really like how the strap works so it doesn’t have a random flap. The battery life is amazing and it tracks everything you would want if you are also active like me perfect for runners and those who want a reliable watch when working with it being waterproof

My wife loves it! Endlessly customizable, bright screen, lightweight, and good battery life. She does wish the sleep tracking algorithm was more accurate, but this is a flaw with all Garmin watches(tracks motion, not heartrate like Fitbit).
