Not as user friendly as other devices I've owned. I had to set the time for sleep; if I go to bed earlier or later, it doesn't seem to detect that. Has a lot of features but can't seem to sync usage. Admittedly some of this may be user error.

So happy that I decided to buy this watch. It does everything I hoped it would and then some. The Fitness tracking, Golf, sleep and the battery life is phenomenal. Highly recommend.

Very happy with the Vivoactive 5. Had a Venu Sq prior so everything connected quickly. The sq watch face seemed to fit my wrist a little better. Thanks for continuing to make an affordable quality product.

I've had my Vivoactive 5 for a few years now and it's one of the best investments l could make to keep track of my health. It's inexpensive, light, and not bulky. It's streamline shape and size fits perfectly for my needs.

I've owned a few Garmin watches and this one has been the worst. With only 2 lasers on the back it often times won't track, well anything. It's pretty and smaller, which is great, but definitely needs to have the 4 lasers like all of my other watches.

Had watch for a month, still haven't tried all features. Wish it had altimeter. I was 69% complete on climbing Mt McKinley on Garmin app, but this watch doesn't track stairs. I wouldn't have bought if I had known. I only purchased because my vivoactive 4 band broke and you cant replace the band. Sleeping with the bigger face is bothersome as well.

Mine works great, for the most part. It does have a habit of coming out of sync with Gamin Connect though. This last time it took forever to get it back in sync. Now, every time I happen to walk about 25 feet from my phone it vibrates and sends a message, "Phone Disconnected." And when I walk back within that range, it sends another message, "Phone reconnected." This has become rather annoying.

Love this watch!! It’s beautiful and looks in place both at the gym and at the office. The battery life has been awesome and I love that it updates itself without having to be attached to/synced up with a computer like my last one (VenuSq). Metrics track consistently with my prior watch and the face is easy to read and navigate. Love that there are so many options for the watch face, too. Very happy with this purchase!

My third iteration of this product line. Purchased to replace aging Vivoactive 3. Significant upgrade with much more health data and improved accuracy, particularly in sleep measurements. Much better in my lap swimming. Hats off to Garmin for making it affordable and significantly improving its usefulness and performance.

I been using this watch about a month and I am not to happy with it. First it says 11 day battery life. Try about 5. 11 days if you don’t wear it. It doesn’t keep correct stats on sleep and your body’s battery level. I can pretty much tell when I sleep good or I don’t. I have a bed that monitor sleep. My other watch was right on with that. Then when you wake up. It gives you negative messages. And then tells you your day might be irritable.
