Long Learning Curve

Love it! But I am still learning how to use it. Need to recharge every three days. I've transitioned to partial recharging every other day or whenever convenient, like when showering at home.

2nd Vivioactive

I'm really happy with the Vivioactive 5. It is so much better than the Vivioactive 4. The display is brighter and it's easier to use. I do wish they made a longer wristband. I only have 2 notches left until the end of the strap.

Bought it for my wife to use in the hospital. She loves it. Really sleek and practical. She loves all the metrics that the watch and the Garmin Connect app provide.

Vvioactive 5

I am still exploring its full capabilities. It works well connecting with my iPhone. It tracks my pulse rate and steps and time very well out of the box. I have not used the fitness features nut plan to do so soon.

Garmin vivoactive 5

This is by far the very best fitness watch I have ever used. Ready to read information and graphics are stunning. I used Fitbit for 9 years, that is over. Garmin for the rest of my life. Thank you for such a great product.

Good all around watch that won't break the bank

I've had my watch for over a year now. I beat the crap out of it and it still works great. I like it for the GPS function while running. I also use it while golfing and getting the distance to the hole quickly.

So far, so good

The watch is smarter than me. I mainly use the GPS function to track my hiking and biking. It connects to my heart rate monitor and my bike computers. So it does everything I need it to do.

Tracks Workout Amazingly

I used to be a Whoop user and it stopped tracking my workouts... once I moved to Garmin I was incredibly impressed with the way it tracked my workouts, to the T!
