    I bought the Vivoactive 5 about a month ago. I love everything about it. The one thing it's missing from the Venu is the Floors Climbed metric, which has never been accurate with any of my previous watches Samsung Watch4, Instinct Solar, etc). The only thing I don't like about this watch is that the band it comes with feels super cheap. But I did not mark it down a star because I bought a pack of silicone bands on Amazon for $12. Now my watch is a rockstar, feels great, looks great and functions perfectly.

    Battery does not last as advertised. I returned it twice and got a Galaxy instead. My old Vivoactive battery lasted twice as long. The Screen is far better looking but if you have to charge it every 2 days you may as well get a regular smartwatch.
