Excellent Multiple Features!

Been enjoying this watch for a month now and still learning how much it does! I basically just wanted a good watch step counter! Love the morning weather, the sleep tracking and so much more. Very comfortable to wear.

Works great, easy to use.

Only issue I have with it is that the power cord is non-standard - I misplaced the one that came with the unit and now awaiting replacment cords so can recharge the waatch

Great iteration of the Vivoactive!

I’ve had this model about a month and I think there is a huge improvement over the Vivoactive 4. The colors are vibrant, it charges faster, I can easily read it underwater, and using it is more intuitive. I’m so pleased!

Does the job

I replaced a Fitbit that over time the display became unreadable. The Garman is much easier to read. The Garmin menu system is not great to navigate. I am satisfied but not enthusiastic about the watch.

No always on display and not on with movement

Got this one to replace my old Vivoactive3, disappointed. Watch face do not stay on and it does not turn on with turn of wrist. I will start looking for alternatives.

Significant Upgrade to my VA3

I'm happy with my purchase at the sale price I paid. It seems to be more accurate than the watch it replaced and includes a number of new features to justify the upgrade. Battery life for me is 7 days.

Love it!

I recently switched from apple to Garmin and haven’t thought about my Apple Watch once! It has everything I need for running and more! I am so highly impressed!

Amazing!

The battery life is spectacular. There’s a little bit of a learning curve but not too bad! It goes with much more than my Apple Watch did. Love the round watch face instead of the square.

Somewhat disappointing

I wanted something I did not have to charge daily and this fits the bill. Overall its a good watch, however it connects and disconnects constantly and I can not connect at the distance it said I could. That is very disappointing and obnoxious
