The battery life is great

I bought this to replace my other watch. I do like the sleep functions & the battery life. But it disconnects from my phone when I’m only 5+ feet away. The workouts aren’t very accurate. I miss a lot of texts because it disconnects so quickly.

So far, so good

The watch is smarter than me. I mainly use the GPS function to track my hiking and biking. It connects to my heart rate monitor and my bike computers. So it does everything I need it to do.

Great iteration of the Vivoactive!

I’ve had this model about a month and I think there is a huge improvement over the Vivoactive 4. The colors are vibrant, it charges faster, I can easily read it underwater, and using it is more intuitive. I’m so pleased!

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

Great updated features!

My wife and I both had Vivoactive 3s. Mine, in fact, was 8 years old. We are still learning about all the features and have been very pleased thus far.

Love it!

Got mine through the VAMC for health stat tracking. But it does so much more than that. It even auto uploaded my bike rides to my strava without me having to physically open Strava.

Surprised by all the featres

Given to me as a Christmas present. Really too large for my wrist. Wish Lily had been available. Email about the Lily shows it would be better for my small wrist. Will not wear mine except when doing activities, especially when going out.

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
