My second vivoactive with a break in the middle for 2 apple watches. Garmin charges once a week with GPS activity tracking having the greatest toll vs apple where i'd get 36 hours between charges. Decided to go back to Garmin after a multi-day hike with my apple requiring me to drag a battery pack along and never getting more than 10 miles of tracking before battery died. Don't love the garmin user interface and snow sports tracking is questionable having to manually mark runs. I'll use apple for snow sports but garmin for the rest. Fortunately i'm able to share and merge data between the 2 devices.

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!

My 5th Vivioactive watch over the last 12 years. Used for cycling, swimming, SUP, hiking(walking) pickleball and lots of other workouts and activities. This watch has quickly become a disappointment due to how it's sensing and recording my workouts. My 4 was very accurate compared to the 5. Not sure if it's the sensor or the software.

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.

I bought this to update the one I was using. Love the bigger numbers and the brightness at night. Much easier to see.

Battery life literally for days; it charges quickly, has great battery life, and has a number of non-paywall features.

Good value at the sale price of 30% off. Wanted an entry level watch specifically for tracing fitness goals and reading text messages.

Its expensive and I thoight it would be a little less expensive at walmart but it was the same orice as everywhere else.

So sleek and light weight. Very accurate tracking. Gps takes a little while to load before runs but its worth the wait

Just got it and it’s super easy to use. I’ve had a Fitbit for years and never could figure out all the features. This was easy!
