I bought this watch a couple weeks ago and so far I am loving it. I bought it to replace my venu sq that I had for a few years. The updated features are nice and very intuitive. I like the additional settings for sleep and coaching. I don't do as much running as I used to, so I use it for other workouts (strength training and yoga) it seems to work well with them. I also enjoy the costumizable faces.

I love my vivoactive 5 so far. I previously had the Forerunner 245 and I love it too, but you can't beat the AMOLED display for its vivid colors and easy readability. I also wanted the open water swim feature, and I'm looking forward to trying it out this spring/summer. The vivoactive 5 is a great multipurpose watch at an excellent price point.

I moved to the vivoactive 5, as I was having issues with my older vivoactive 4 (battery life, inaccurate heart rate readings. Battery life in the 5 is much better. However the heart rate monitor is still severely inaccurate. I'm getting credit for "intensity minutes" with high heart rate reading, when in fact my heart rate is quite normal. It's reading 115+ when in fact it's barely in the 70's ( confirmed with my Kardia Care ekg device. Also with the Vivoactive 4, I could get to the stop watch with one swipe. Now it seems I have to scroll to find the stop watch (unless I'm missing something). Waiting to use the golf app in the spring, hoping it is as good, if not better than the vivoactive 4.

I have been a Fitbit girl since 2017. Well, I broke up with Fitbit at the end of November. After, actually, I will spare you the dirty details. Anyway, I am now a Garmin girl! I received my Garmin on January 1st, and I love my vivoactive 5! It is comfortable, and I love all the features. My only complaint is I have to connect to fitness pal to log my food, and I don't get all the features there unless I pay for premium. It’s OK. I don't mind typing my food in. Thank you for making a great watch!

I received this for a gift and couldn't be happier. I get all the information I need for my health and fitness. The information is accurate and up to date. I also like the round and easy to read size of the watch. The charge lasts longer, and when it needs charging, it's fast.

I've only used the watch a few days. So far, it seems to be fine.

Garmin makes a quality product

Price was a little high, but I wanted durability- and I got it!

Upgraded from vivo3 and love the 5. I needed the body battery HRV features

Didn't track my sleep correctly so I'm returning it.
