I bought my vivoactive 5 the end of December as a Christmas gift to me. I had a venue square which I had gotten December of 2021. The venue square was not giving me any issues, I just wanted the vivoactive 5 for some features that the venue didn't have. I'm still learning the features of the vivoactive but I'm very happy with my new watch. I gave my daughter the venue square, she's enjoying it as much as i did.

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.

Hello I just received a Garmin vivoactive 5 on Christmas and was very excited. One of the features that I was really excited about was the battery life, but so far very disappointed. my battery doesn't last more than 24 hours! I've tried all of the things to do, drained the battery entirely and cleaned the ports and no success!

This product has changed my overall health and pushes me to be better everyday!! I've already recommended to so many people and have already had two people get one!!!! I love this watch! I use it for stress tracking, running (training for a half marathon), hydration, steps and so much more!! I love how it is also waterproof and the battery life is amazing. I used to have an Apple Watch and it always died on me but not this watch!

The band that shipped with the fitness tracker caused my wrist to become raw. Currently trying to find a replacement band so that I can continue to use the device. The features are very nice to have when i could wear the device. Need to find a good replacement band that will not irritate my skin.

This item is very thorough at collecting overall statistics about a persons health. It is a hreat little tracker if you dont need all the bells and whistles. If you are apprehensive about having all your health stats in the hands of Google like the fitbit and Google tracker, this is the one for you.

I received this tracker for Christmas from my son. I like all the features, but I had to shut most of them off because my battery only lasts a day. Even with things shut off, like pairing to my phone, the Pulse Ox, notifications and others, I have to charge it every day. It is not convenient if I have to spend time charging it, instead of using it.

My old Vivoactive HR broke down and it was time to upgrade. I bought the Vivoactive 5 even though there is a newer version since it was less expensive. The Vivoactive 5 connects to my phone immediately where the HR model took a while to connect after a run or workout. The display is bright and colorful and there are many options for the watch face. The only change I would like to make it to have the time of day on the workout option. Maybe there is a way to add this but I haven't figured it out yet. This model does so much that I can't imagine the Vivoactive 6 having even more features. I'm sure it does but the 5 has plenty of features for me.

I have had my vivoactive 5 for two weeks now. I simply love it. I was looking for a watch that had a longer battery life than my Lily 2 classic. (which I loved). I get 9 days before I have to charge. Still learning how to use all the features. Ony thing I really not keen on is the band. But easy to change.

I switched from a FitBit and it's fantastic! It definitely tracks my heart rate better and overall is more accurate compared to the FitBit. I am using it 24/7 to get a baseline on activity, sleep, and overall health - so far so good! Quick syncing to my phone and other apps makes this a no brainer!
