A superior alternative to Fitbit and Apple Watch
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After years of frustration with multiple Fitbits (versa, inspire 2, inspire 3), I decided to switch to this Garmin Vivoactive 5. I also tried an Apple Watch, but was seriously disappointed with the battery life and having download multiple 3rd party apps for exercise tracking. The Vivoactive 5 is superior to my Fitbits in terms of providing me with health metrics without a lame Fitbit paywall (not to mention this will last a longer than any Fitbit). The Garmin Connect app is great, although it does take some time to get used to it. It's also superior to the Apple Watch in terms of battery life and having everything on one app for my workouts. I love this watch! In my opinion, this is a great value, especially comparted to the Venu 3.

Vioactive raiting
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the design! I definitely still have a lot to learn about my garmin but so far i have enjoyed all of the features I know how to use. I think it is a perfect watch for those who stay active through different types of exercises. I also recommend it for those of you that want a quality technology that is not extremely expensive.

Garmin's Still Got It
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bit the bullet to upgrade my faltering vivoactive 3 (it gave me 4 great years!) to the 5 and man, I'm sure glad I did. Everything is so much better. More stats, more ways to customize absolutely everything from screen photos, coaching programs, just all of it. It has the same durability with all the best perks of Garmin. I wear it in the shower, for swimming, all activities, only taking it off once per week to charge. Speaking of that, it holds a charge awesomely! Also, the connectivity cannot be beat. My old one would have to be manually synced once in a while, but this one is highly sensitive to my phone's location, seamlessly going from connected to disconnected and back as I move around the house. I'm so glad I made this purchase and recommend it very highly. Get one; you won't be disappointed!

Tena's Garmin
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This watch is not my favorite of the Garmin brand but i like the smaller watch face along with the battery life. I also like the watch faces that you can get. It spices up the watch but it does burn the battery. I also do not care for the watch band. I wish they made a leather band for this watch. I chose this watch because of the name. Garmin is a great brand that I believe puts a great deal of effort into their product.

Garmin Vivoactive 5 review
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought it during during the thanksgiving week. Coming from an Apple Watch, I like how Garnin provides more information when it comes to fitness. I looks great and have no issues with the band. The only think I do not like are the buttons. They feel cheap.
