    Love my new watch! My Fitbit died and I needed a replacement. Decided to go Garmin. I am not really an athlete, but I like to track my metrics. This achieved everything I wanted and more. Great value.

    I really like this watch and had the vivoactive 4. Some improvements are the sleep functions and display. The only con I noticed is that it lacks a barometric altimeter, so it doesn’t track flights of stairs. That was surprising and a bit disappointing. But overall I still really like it and the Garmin Connect app.

    The watch is the best I’ve had in a while. Samsung and Apple provide a little compared to the Garmin watch. Online or offline! I repeat, online or offline.

    Will Never Go Back to Fitbit

    Love this Garmin Vivoactive 5. This is my first Garmin after owning at least 6 Fitbits (like a fool). I was tired of replacing the fitbit Charge 4, 5, 6...almost every year(!) and paying a premium membership. The Vivoactive is comfortable, lightweight, gives me all the information I'm looking for, and does so, I think, more accurately than fitbit. Love you can change the watchface to an abundance of choices. The silicone band is super soft. Couple of negatives; it takes a half-second for the screen to wake when glancing at it. It is a bit more sensitive to errant taps. But the biggest let down is the battery life. I'm getting nowhere close to the advertised number of days, and I don't feel I'm overusing it's functions/sensors. I'm only getting about two (2) days before I have to charge it. Still, I highly recommend it. It's just leaps and bounds better than fitbit. AND NO MEMBERSHIP/FEE!!

    Great watch with a few flaws. I love this watch. It seems very accurate. It also has great features and the app is fantastic. Two problems though. It does not count flights, and I can't stand the charger! Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Thankfully it has an amazing battery life.

    A couple weeks in and I really like this watch. It was very easy to set up on my computer. It has all the capabilities I wanted. Since I can't connect it to my work phone, this watch is perfect for me!

    Great watch if you dont need/want all of the bells and whistles. The build quality is fairly good. I'd kind of like a bigger display or watch body, personally. This has platic buttons and no speaker. The battery life has been as advertised at 11 days.

    Primarily purchased for golf, Love the long battery life and GPS features. Unexpectedly good fitness features but hope for BP and blood suger tracking on later models.
