    My only real complaint is that, although the heartrate readings are accurate, if I exercise without turning on the corresponding app, my max heartrate is not logged. Otherwise, I have thoroughly enjoyed my time using the watch!

    I bought this watch for my wife as a Bday gift and it was worth it. The watch has been very useful to keep her health checked and also to track her running while training for the 2025 Marathon. Worh every penny and she is verry satisfied with the gift.

    Got this at a nice Best Buy discount because the Vivoactive 6 was recently released. Still has lots of great features and should be current with Garmin updates. Silky soft band is comfortable to wear at night, syncs with my Android phone and Garmin web app on my laptop as well as Chronometer. Nice size for my small wrist. 4 stars because the music feature doesn't include SiriusXM, and because frequent updates sometimes cause rapid battery drain until I reset the watch but keep my data.

    The Garmin vivoactive 5 is perfect for me. I workout; it tracks calories, intensity, and more. I set goals for steps and stairs, and it keeps me on task. When I play pickleball, the vivoactive 5 lets me know how many calories I burn. The connectivity to my iphone and WhatsApp is very helpful to me. I recommend it highly!

    Great watch for the price. Does everything I need from a smart watch. My only complaint is that the watch head could be a bit smaller, but that's unfortunately just the size of smart watches nowadays. LOVE the fact that the battery stays charged for like 10 days, it's a game changer.

    I wear my watch everyday, and love it so far! I have had it for about 6 months now, and had no complaints. It has survived a lot of manual labor as well, and i’m surprised the screen of it is still intact with how many things I have rammed it into.

    This watch is freaking amazing. I’ve had an Apple Watch for years, but I have this a shot and I like it so much more. It’s more watch than extension of my phone and that’s where it wins. The features on it are great, and the watch face styles available are awesome; the garmin ones are cool, but the third party developed ones are pretty cool two.

    This watch was a good fit for my needs. I need to track blood oxygen levels while sleeping and it’s perfect for that. And for a plus the sleep score is a good feature. The only reason for 4 stars is that on occasion it will irritate my skin overnight
