Customer Ratings & Reviews

Not sure how accurate watch is, step counter is since I regularly meet goal while driving, and I drive ALOT! Sleep is non restorative 9/10 nights! Am I even alive?!?

It was a little to get used to because i was using an Apple Watch. But so far i am enjoying it. Love the features and the durability. I did purchase a screen protector and will probably get a cover for it also.

Great product makes it easier to keep track of my splits!

I had the instinct 2 for about 6 months and struggled to read it (old age). The vibrant color screen of the Vivoactive 5 is much brighter and easy to read. I was concerned about decreases battery life compared to instinct 2, and it is less, but it is still better than most smart watches. Highly recommended!

It was everything and more. The stats you get from this watch is great.

Switched to Garmin after several FB Charge 4/5 failures. Some functions not intuitive, but easy once learned. Plenty of data available to analyze health and fitness. Can’t really assess durability after just over a month of use.

Love it. Wear it all the time. The battery is inconsistent and it randomly connects and disconnects from my phone

Perfect pair for everyday fitness tracking! Sleek appearance so love it so much

The watch itself works great. Bought it for daily health and sleep monitoring and am happy with the results and accuracy. However, I personally dislike the UI as well as how workouts are tracked. It may just take some getting used to,

Good thing I’ve bought ! It’s completely functional and helps me a lot Every kind of sports

Nice but look a kinda fragil, hope soon release some hard case for this model like the other ones

HR tracker is inaccurate when using it for the gym. Post exercise it will say my HR is still in the 50s - simply not true.

Already having issues with screen not responding twice and I’ve only had for a month. Found it’s a common issue with this model. Customer service was pleasant, but no estimated time of when this issue will be resolved. Other than that, it does functions well

The product worked fine, but the band and watch casing caused an allergic reaction. Customer service was great about the return process!

I’ve been using the Garmin vívoactive 5 GPS Smartwatch for a while now, and I absolutely love it! It’s super lightweight and comfortable to wear all day, and the black design with the slate aluminum looks really sleek. It feels durable, but it doesn’t look bulky, which I appreciate. The fitness features are what really sold me. I use it for running, biking, and even yoga, and it tracks everything perfectly. The built-in GPS is super accurate, so I don’t need to carry my phone on runs, and it even tracks my heart rate and sleep. I love seeing all the data in the Garmin Connect app—it’s really motivating to watch my progress. The screen is bright and easy to read, even in the sun, and the battery life is amazing. I only need to charge it every 10-11 days, which is a huge plus. I also use Garmin Pay sometimes, which is super convenient, and I like getting notifications from my phone right on my wrist. Overall, this watch has been a game-changer for me. It’s easy to use, has tons of features, and helps me stay on track with my fitness goals. If you’re thinking about getting one, I highly recommend it!

I may just be allergic to the material, but the watch made my wrist blister and very red and puffy. Besides that, the interface was difficult to get use to, the heart rate and blood oxygen were not accurate or consistent. I used it a few times when working out and that was the only time it did seem to be very useful. The peeling picture is from 5 days after taking it off. Best-buy was very helpful with the refund process and made it very easy

Great watch. Purchased to replace another popular brand of smartwatch that was only 2 years old and was saying it was out of memory even though it was as clean as the O/S would allow. It also required daily charging. Now for the Garmin watch, only requires charging once a week at around 50% left ont the battery. There are no issues with memory as this watches O/S does not bloat it as if it was a phone and not a watch. Loving the implementation of GPS and health tra king and flexibility of uses. Great availability of free or inexpensive watch faces and watch bands. Not as rugged as my Instinct 2 solar, but this has color display and has been holding up well so far. I would recommend this as a great replacement for brand S and brand A smartwatches. Much easier on memory and since it is garmin GPS is very accurate. Health tracking is great as well

Display looks great, easy to navigate, and long battery life. I love that I’m able to wear it overnight to track sleep. Worth the price 100%!

Light, comfortable, and battery lasts forever. Tracks workouts accurately and the display looks sharp outdoors. Perfect everyday fitness watch. I actually love it , and I wear it all night and it tracks my sleep pretty dang well, charge 1 time every two weeks

This watch works great! It tracks everything I want it to track, and the GPS is very accurate. It provides lots of thorough health information, including sleep tracking, pulse ox, and much more. The battery life is insane too, as I can go several days without needing to charge it.
