    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.

    Best fitness watch on the market

    I had Fitbits in the past and they didn’t last long. I had a Garmin and loved it but switched to Apple for a while but got fed up and switched back, permanently! Apple is a fashion statement; Garmin is an actual fitness watch that encourages fitness and health. The functionality is awesome and shockingly better than the Apple.

    Still not so sure on the 5. I had the 4 and I loved it but, the battery wasn’t holding so I wanted a new one. The battery life is great on the 5. The look is great. It is smaller than the 4, which I like. It does all the same things as the 4. There is some question on the syncing that I am not so sure about yet. Jury is still out on this one.

    Always loved the garmin watched. Switched to Apple Watch for for about 4 years but the garmin is so much more efficient. Battery has longer life. I’m fairly active so I charge up about every 4 days.

    Really cool device with all basic features you'd need to start running/being more active. I used the Garmin Coach to run my first 5K and couldn't be happier with the results.

    Love this watch ! It’s even waterproof. I love the longevity of the battery life as well! Tracks everything important and even calculates health and baseline heart rate. So much more accurate than the Apple Watch in my opinion

    band is very uncomfortable and finding other bands that work with this product is really hard, even on amazon. The watch face cracked two months after purchase and Garmin will only exchange the product for 100$, that's half what I paid for at best buy, the features it claims to have are spotty at best, step count seems off half the time, and the sleep tracking is laughable. only saving grace is that the battery does last longer than a week, though the watch claims two weeks but that's only if it's used as a watch and not as any other feature.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I love how long the charge lasts! I also love all the features you can get on it and a lot of them are free (like my running coach). I had an Apple Watch, but I love this so much better

    This is my second Vivoactive watch. My previous watch was 6 years old, and the battery was getting a little tired. This new one is a huge upgrade. Love it!
