Great features but disappointed in durability

Love the features of this watch but very disappointed to that the edge of the screen had a crack in less than a week. It's not for me if it's not durable for everyday activities. I've worn Fitbit since 2018 and have never had a screen crack.

Still trying to work out the bugs

Doesn't seem to track my sleep correctly. It shows my wake time later than I actually woke up the past 3 days. Also, it keeps reverting to military time which is extremely annoying.

Love my Garmin

Had a Garmin Venu SQ a few years ago. Loved that one also. Just updated to a Garmin Vivvívoactive 5. Did I say I love Garmin. Loved, loved, loved my new watch ⌚️

Great watch

I bought this watch about a month ago and I am very pleased with it. It does everything I need and I am still finding out about new things that it can do. Don’t think you can go wrong with a Vivoactive 5.

Limited improvements in layout design

Limited ability to order layout. Heart rate zones buried under chart . Heart rate number doesn't change color only a side bar small to see during workout

Excellent alternative to Vivoactive 5S

Received this as a Christmas Gift! I'm a 10 plus year Garmin user and this watch offers all the data I'm always looking for. I do miss the ladies design, (smaller face), but this watch is worth every penny. Great Christmas present

Battery life is amazing. Was an Apple Watch gal for almost a decade and made the switch and it can do basically all the same things with 10x the battery life

Awesome battery.

I love my Garmin Vivoactive 5, but have ONE complaint. Why does it not have hiking under "Activities" on the watch? I have to use "walking" but hiking is more strenuous. I've tried to find hiking to no avail.

Review.

I really like it, but I’ve only had it for four weeks and the step counter is way off. Everything else seems to work pretty good on. It cannot find out why it will not pick up my steps.
