Decent watch

Have had my garmin for about a month now and can say I am fairly happy with it but there are some issues that could be fixed, for example the connect app is very buggy and I can’t use Apple Music on it which sucks which is understandable

Better than most

Bought the watch a few weeks ago, so it has preformed as advertised. Only one problem with it the O2 only gives one day reading dose not keep a record. And only gives a reading when selecting it, manually.

This watch feels very cheaply made. I had a Forerunner 45S for 5 years and replaced it with this, assuming it would be the same quality. I also don't like the design of the watch. The bezel does not protect the screen

Great watch for the money!

I bought this for myself for Christmas and got rid of my ios watch and I will never go back. The battery is amazing! I forget I’m even wearing it, it’s so comfortable.

So far, so good!

After three and a half years, it was time to upgrade from a vivoactive4. Just a couple little glitches that come along with having a new toy, but everything was all ironed out within a day or two. No complaints, no problems!

Fast connection to GPS and great battery life

I bought vivoactive 4 and always took way too long to connect to GPS. Sometimes I could walk a block before it was ready. Video active five excellent, great battery life.

Joey's vivoactive 5

Like the watch, but was disappointed that it doesn't have an altimeter - Got this as a replacement for my vivoactive 4, via the tech hotline. Knowing what I know now, would have probably gone one more level up.

Great when it works

I enjoy using it when it works, but seems to disconnect more than normal. I am switching over from Fitbit which rarely had issues connecting, but this one seems to disconnect from my phone weekly. Other than that it is a great product.
