Perfect For What I Need
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Such a fan of this watch! I admittedly don't use alllll the bells and whistles it comes with, but that is why I got the "simplest" one. The battery lasts about 1.5-2 weeks and that is with me wearing it constantly. I do wish you could customize the faces a little more but honestly that is my only complaint.

Great staff, however, no charging cord in box
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The staff was very accommodating and understood my disappointment with my first purchase of this exact Garmin smartwatch a week prior. The watch malfunctioned on multiple occasions during the week and they took it back, granting me a gift card so that I could either get a new one of that model or something else. I went with the same model (for my husband), however; I rated 4 stars because although the Watch is working great; there was no charging cord in the package! We will be going back to best buy to get a watch charger this weekend.

Vivoactive 5 that is replacing a Fitbit watch
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the Garmin watch. I use to have a Fitbit, and this is so much better than a Fitbit. Also, it was on sale for $50 off. It is working so well. It is everything that a Garmin Watch should be. It has a very long battery life and all the functions that I want. Not disappointed. Great purchase.

Fantastic Product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the best fitness tracker I have ever owned. I was a dedicated fitbit user, but they all quit working after a year. This Garmin is the most simple, useful tracker ever.

Surprised?
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It seems to work ok. There aren't a lot of options for fitness trackers that are simple, yet somewhat reliable. I have liked all of my Garmin watches, but none of them last very long. Maybe 3 or 4 years if I'm lucky. I do like that they don't currently charge extra to use the app. I think other brands have a subscription to view your personal data. I have to reluctantly admit that it is fun to see my texts on my watch. Took some getting used to, but I think it is a good thing. Strange, but oddly helpful. I also am amazed that I was able to put a picture of my puppy on my watch face.

Great features and battery life
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Still getting to know the watch, but after 5 weeks it has done everything I wanted it to. The GPS/run mode is very accurate (even without having my phone on the run) and the post run report is full of great data. Morning report is helpful and the ability to check texts quickly on my watch means I am reaching for my phone less and less. Battery life is still really good. Only charge it every 6 days.
