Learning skills

I’m very happy with the Vivactive 5 watch. There was a learning curve in the beginning but the company service team was extremely helpful and they talked to me and helped me off the “ledge”.

Better than most

Bought the watch a few weeks ago, so it has preformed as advertised. Only one problem with it the O2 only gives one day reading dose not keep a record. And only gives a reading when selecting it, manually.

Much better than Fitbit

I love my new Garmin. It syncs seamlessly with my iPhone, the battery lasts several days and I love the challenges offered. I especially like the sleep data

Excited Beginner

This was a gift. I had help me to push forward with my daily steps to drink more water and sleep when I should. I have been able to achieve my daily goals. I love it! I also have been able to see when I’m stress and can wind down and meditate.

Joey's vivoactive 5

Like the watch, but was disappointed that it doesn't have an altimeter - Got this as a replacement for my vivoactive 4, via the tech hotline. Knowing what I know now, would have probably gone one more level up.

Still learning how to operate it...

I am not Gidget's person; I am from the 1900s generation and got the first smartwatch for swimming, Zumba classes, and health purposes. I will update my reviews once I learn and understand all the features.

Vivoactive 5 hits the mark!

This is my third Garmin watch and I would not have another. I have years of activities all in one place and each new watch adds new features that help me track my health and fitness. Oh, and it's waterproof too!

Stop auto sleep mode pls!
4 out of 5 stars review

Can't disable auto sleep mode

Excellent watch - great features and layout but having the sleep mode automatically turn on and turn off is extremely inconvenient and annoying. This has been captured for years in forums and blogs and Garmin you need to change it.

Great watch!

I bought this about a month ago. So far I am loving the features, workouts, and sleep tracker. The battery life is a major plus!!! I also like the way it looks on me as well!

Amazing

This is an incredible device. Covers all my body metrics. Leaves nothing undone. I used to use fitbits. In my opinion they are just toys compared to garmin
