So Much Better than Fitbit!

I am loving my vivoactive 5 - better battery life than my old watch and I believe the heart rate monitor is more accurate than fitbit.

This is a far cheaper smart watch than an Apple Watch. I love this Garmin. Would highly recommend to those looking to track their biometrics.

Good Value for a Fitness Watch

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

Great watch for tracking and usability

Bought this for my wife's birthday as a gift and she loves it! The tracking and apps to customize is just what she was looking for. I have the VivoActive4 and the updates to the 5 are great enhancements. Definitely a good all around watch and tracker.

Good features

I bought this watch a month ago and still getting used to it. It is not intuitive. I tried to set up the swim app to adjust for my water aerobics class and it does not work. The sleep app does work well as well as the calories burned, heart rate, and steps. The best feature is the battery life. It can go a full 5-6 days without need of recharging

Mixed Reviews

My Vivoactive 5 is a recertified product due to previous Vivoactive 4 malfunctions. I did receive a recertified, not new item. Smaller than the Vivo 4, the Vivo 5 has a low budget look and feel to it. My main concern is for how long will this watch last until it shuts off. All the bells and whistles for an active person but a few glitches during the day. Battery is something you have to be aware of as well, I'm always checking to see when charge needed. Not too confident in this device.
