Vivoactive 5

A must buy!! I had a Fitbit forever and I’m in love with my Garmin more features and light weight. I don’t even feel like I have it on. Battery life is amazing!! Very happy with my purchase.

Great watch!

I bought this watch 2 weeks ago. It has many features and as I continue to learn and navigate the watch functions, I love it even more. Great for the activity tracking and better than I thought it would be.

Works great, easy to use.

Only issue I have with it is that the power cord is non-standard - I misplaced the one that came with the unit and now awaiting replacment cords so can recharge the waatch

Beautiful display and love features

I really love this watch--it's ease of use and features. The array of displays are amazing! I thought that the battery life was longer, however. I was told it would last 8 days, but I'm only seeing it's lasting 4-5 days. That is disappointing.

You need video lessons for directions

Do you have a website showing us how to use the watch? I do not do well at all with your printout. I bought it so I could record my oxygen level when I sleep and during the day. I cannot figure it out.

I love the COLOR!

I had the Instinct Camo before this and got tired of the plain gray/black/white. Besides the colors, I like the swipe feature for viewing steps etc, the timer, and the wide variety of watch faces I find right on the watch.

Good apps

I bI bought this, and I like the advice it gives me to improve my training. I think I still need to explore it more, and I would love some tips on how to improve my sleep as well.

Great smart watch.

This is my first smart watch and I've been happy with it. The only thing I would improve is how touch it is and sometimes I get notifications that aren't on my phone and seem to be spam.

So far I like it!

I purchased t He Vivoactivev5 when my Venus started taking 2 plus hours to charge. I like the font that actually let's me see and read alerts. It would be nice to be able to get more free watch faces

Long Learning Curve

Love it! But I am still learning how to use it. Need to recharge every three days. I've transitioned to partial recharging every other day or whenever convenient, like when showering at home.
