I've had my Vivoactive 5 for several weeks, and I'm happy with my purchase. The watch has many features that are easy to access and use. The battery holds a charge for several days and charges quickly.

Had bought it , battery would not last had to charge it within a day. After i tried to update and settings battery lasted a bit longer but kept Locking me out ended up returning it within a week

I had a VivoActive 3 and do like the VivoActrive 5 better. It has more vivid colors, it was compatible with my favorite watch face "Rails". It seems brighter but I used to use the 3 for a night light walking through a dark room, but the new one doesn't work for that. The old one I charged once a day, the new one goes about 4 days between charges. The 3 used to use 7% of batteries on walks, the 5 only uses 3%. It doesn't keep trying to change watch faces like the 3 did. Not sure I like the morning update feature. I would like to be able to set the Oxygen sensor to check levels once every 10 minutes during the day along with the night monitor.

After about 4 years I replaced my (original) Garmin Venu with this Garmin Vivoactive 5. I was a little sceptical because this watch was quite a bit less expensive, and I was hoping that it would like it as much as the Venu. I wanted mainly a large heart rate display during activity, an alarm, and sleep monitoring. After I personalizing the Vivoactive I couldn't be happier! I was able to download my spotify playlists onto it and do not need my phone during my workouts anymore. It is slightly thinner than the Venu and makes it more comfortable wearing it during sleep. The display looks great, and the watch has all the features I wanted and exceeded my expectations.

This is my fourth vivoactive fitness watch (1, 4, and now 5). As a runner and triathlete, I've used the vivoactive watch to train for four half marathons over the past three years. From triathlon training to golfing to pickleball to walking, this watch does everything I need to help me train, stay active, and make it easy to see notifications from my iPhone. Love my vivoactive 5 fitness watch!

the watch itself is okay. i got it for my son who loves tracking his steps. im just disappointed in Sams for advertising this as a 'Tech Savings' at the start of the month yet now it is on sale for $20 less than I paid for it %26 I only got it a week ago. if it wasnt a birthday gift, i would have returned it %26 repurchased it to get my $20 back.

Super wonderful product!! I am so satisfied with all the features and the quality is amazing. My favorite feature is that the battery life is great as well as the fact that it tracks how much weight I lift. Would definitely recommend if you are into weightlifting and exercise.

I have been wearing a vivo since the 3, and was excited to get this “upgrade” to a 5. The bright display is great, yep. The loss of the altimeter is not great, however, and unfortunately I have returned the watch. It's not in the 6 either. The “fix” I was given was that I could view the altitude after the activity in the app, however elevation is something I check during the activity, not after. Huge bummer, Garmin.

Bought 4 weeks ago. Very impressed , easy to use but worth taking tutorials as I am still discovering new features. Previously had the whoop on a trial but did miss the watch face ( didn't miss the annual subscription). Battery life is great. Logging strength based activities is a little tricky but with practice all ok.

I've had a Vivoactive 3 for years and loved its size and features, but it's resolution wasn't too great and it's color rendition and clarity were limited by today's standards, so I just upgraded to Vivoactive 5 at a bargain price, below the current Vivoactive 6, while supplies last. Wow!!! What a difference. Lighter, slightly smaller, the colors and resolution pop, more features, better glass, and more memory. I love it. I took off one star simply because they took away the barometric pressure sensor (for elevation) and replaced the SS bezel ring with a composite material. I'm a little rough outdoors, so hoping it doesn't get banged up. So far so good. Thanks Garmin.
