Customer Ratings & Reviews

So far I like this. No paid subscription required. Bought this to track my heart rate and sleep quality. I like that the clock faces can be tailored or changed. I also use this to check for notifications on my phone. Many options are available that I have not fully explored. A feature to track your movements is available but not required to activate. Yes, this is the same Garmin brand that makes the GPS navigator. For you techies, a few open source programs are in use of this device. The charging cable is USB-C with a specific connector to the watch on the other end. I have a cheaper brand that I barely used. I will reevaluate the other brand to see if I can utilize it while the Garmin watch is charging. Like anything with a battery, it will drain the more use it gets. So far every 4 days on average since I use the alarm, check HR, look at notifications, workout programs and even to check the time and date.

I love my Garmin vivoactive 5. This is my second one. I had the previous one for ~3 years and it became very stubborn about charging. Since I was travelling to S. America, I wanted to make sure I had one. There weren't any new items in the vivoactive 6 that it looked like I would use so I bought another vivoactive 5 and I am extremely happy with it

I was getting over my Apple Watch and I’m glad I went with this one. Besides it being very cute it calculates your steps more accurately. And the battery life is amazing I could go a week without having to charge it.

Great battery life, way better in comparison to the Apple Watch. It is day five since the last charge and currently at 49%. Great fitness tracking. The only drawback is not being able to reply text back on the watch itself

Love it! It’s accurate and pretty! I would buy this again.

Excellent replacement for the vivoactice 2. The battery life is excellent, it has only been charged once in 5 days. So far we have only had it since Christmas, so 5 days. He only misses the watch face from his previous Garmin.

Battery its good, not great. The coach features, breathe work, and strength workouts are AMAZING. It allows me to see my growth.

The battery life is insane! I used to have an Apple Watch and it didn't last the day. My Garmin lasts a week and a half! Does a great job with tracking steps, heart rate, sleep, and other stuff. Def worth the purchase.

Very easy to use and track workouts and sleep pattern.

Easy set up. Good display and battery life. Smaller screen is nice too

10/10, very accurate. It takes a week to completely calibrate your body. All the features are the best and you can even link your watch to fitness apps on you phone( my fitnesspal).

I got this Garmin as a replacement for my Apple Watch. I had been debating switching to a Garmin for a while and finally decided to go for it. It’s AMAZING. Great price, not too bulky, the battery life is incredible and it charges unbelievably quick. It does everything that the Apple Watch does, only better imo. The sleep tracker is my favorite feature. The only con is that you can’t respond to texts or take phone calls on the watch like you can with the Apple Watch, however, I don’t think that should be a requirement when shopping for a health device. The Apple Watch is a smart watch with fitness/health features. The Garmin is a fitness/health watch with smart features. That’s the best way to decide what will fit best with your lifestyle.

I have had previous Garmin watches and love them especially to keep track of my sleep and the long battery life, I purchased this Garmin watch for son as a Christmas present and love the color screen.

This an awesome smartwatch does more than I need for a fair price and the battery life is outstanding!

Absolutely love it! It measures my sleep which is usually not so great But keeps me moving. I get my messages and calls. U can set what u want for notifications.

My first smart watch in 4 years. It work great for sleep tracking and heart rate monitor during workout. Battery last about 10 days on normal use on battery saver mode. Nice small design and light weight for allday wear.

I love the way it fits my wrist! That it adjusts to the work outs that I do . Gives you lot opportunity to improve my health

I love this watch,is never giving me any problems, i took out the country to Honduras and it works perect,I hight recomend this wach, it last long time charged.

I used to wear Fitbit before these and I’ll say that Garmin is 100 times better. They are very comfortable to wear and lightweight. I really like how I can pick from various watch faces and personalize the watch how I want to. The watch is easy to navigate. The only downside is the app because it is complicated and difficult to figure out the settings, but I really do like how much detailed information the app shows (sleep, heart rate, steps, etc). The battery life is also good, it lasts for me like 6 days. Overall, I really recommend this watch!!

Love the features this watch offers. It’s a nice alternative that focuses on health as opposed to being another cell phone on your wrist.
