For the most part I am very happy with the vivoactive5. It would be nice to have the Android app to be more user friendly. Would like to see the battery life on the home page of the app, or anywhere in the app. Overall I would recommend to a friend or family.

I bought this a month ago and is performing well. I like the different amount of options it has for workouts and sports. I wish there were more options for the watch face. for example, I like the look of the sleep mode but I can only see it in that specific mode.

I have had the watch about a month so still trying to figure out all it is capable of. Love the look, it announced my mileage and pace every mile, screen easy to read and so much more. The one thing that I have noticed that is diff is that it deletes your run with no "are you sure you want to delete" so you need to be careful as the screen is touch and super sensitive. But overall, LOVE it so far!!!

I thought I would miss my Vivoactive 3 after the battery ran out, but the 5 is OUTSTANDING!! The sleep monitor is better, the ease of use is so much better than my Forerunner that replaced the 3. It is so much easier to use than any other of my Garmin devices and much more enjoyable and simpler to use and attractive. The only reason I can’t give it a 5 star is that you dont know how to add apps and activities out of the box until you get the excellent “ thank you for registering “ from Garmin!! The instructions in the box are woefully inadequate.

I love this watch! It really is helping me on my fitness and strengthening journey. I am disabled, and this helps me stay on track and build my strength without injuring myself. It helps keep me motivated, and I love being able to see my progress. Thank you, Garmin! :) :)

As a prior Fitbit owner, I switched to Garmin, as I was tired of replacing Fitbit devices annually, and I believe Google will eliminate them and move people to their watch. I am looking to Garmin to fill my tracking needs, eliminate constant replacements, and provide more data. At this point, they have exceeded my expectations. They provide more information and add more features. It is double the price, but having to replace a Fitbit every year, this Garmin tracker has to make it two years, and I am ahead.

I got this watch a few weeks ago and once I researched all the features I fell in love. However, it wears worse than I expected. I have not worn it in the shower or water but the band seal is peeling already! Hoping the bands are replaceable because I have loved tracking my health and sleep especially.

I bought this watch about a month ago after exchanging my Garmin Fenix 7 that I had purchased a few months before that. The vivoactive 5 is exactly what I was looking for. The Garmin Fenix 7 was too large and too complicated. The vivoactive 5 has all of the features I was looking for, very similarly to the Fenix 7, but is a lot smaller profile and easy to wear. I am so happy with this watch.

I purchased this watch for myself and my wife a few weeks ago and we absolutely LOVE it! We both had Apple Watches for years and they don’t come close to the capabilities of this watch in metrics and battery life in particular. I also really enjoy the amount of options to customize data and workout or activity options. The watch also has a swimming mode and can be worn in the shower. This watch is great for anyone who is active or wants to be motivated to become more active. You get a lot of value for the price. Highly recommend!

I bought this around Christmas time and am just now starting to use it. There are good points and things I am just not 100% sure of. I have a FR245 that has some battery life issues so I decided to use this watch but, when I finish a run all of the laps don't seem to reflect in the Connect app. Also when I finish a run I am finding that the watch wants to be turned off?? I think maybe I am expecting it to work just like the FR watches and it doesn't and it's something that I need to learn, read up on.
