Very Pleased!

After spending a lot of time reviewing different fitness tracking watches, I decided on the Vivoactive. I've been very happy with the performance of the different features and measurements.

Exactly as promised!

I bought the watch about a month ago primarily because of the battery life. I am getting over a week of life between charges. The watch, along with my phone, give me an all the data I need. VERY happy with the purchase.

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.

Exactly what I need

I had a VivoActive 3 that finally gave up the ghost so I ordered the Ne 5 model. Veryn happy I did as I really enjoy the added features but it works even better for the sports i do. Cycling, Swimming, and hiking.

Great battery life

I have had my watch for about 2 weeks. So far I love it. I like how it gives a great breakdown of my sleep pattern. It is pretty easy to use. There are other little things like asking me in the morning if I am ready to be up (awake) then assist me sleeping, I also like o. The screen before I actually get up it shows me what the weather is doing, like snowing, raining, sunshine…it has been fun so far!

Disappointing

They moved and changed the controls for no apparent reason. Control buttons are frequently not responsive. No altimeter so it doesn't measure stairs. The best thing about is the charger cable seems improved, so now my old watch charges again. But only on that cable. I like your product overall, but it shouldn't be this hard to charge a watch. And I've cleaned the contacts repeatedly.

Repeatedly registering the device

It seems as if two times a month I am being asked to register my watch. What is happening that my registration of the watch is being lost?

upgrade from the vivoactive 4 in most ways

The general features are better than its predecessor however the overall construct is a bit inferior. I do like the sleep features and the general fitness insights, they are a bit improvement over the 4 version. Would like more guidance on how to make the battery last as long as advertised as well.
