I got this watch a month ago and have really enjoyed all it's features. It's easy to use and comfortable on my wrist. I like all the options for workouts. Also, I really appreciate the body battery and recovery features. I'm very happy with my purchase. Garmin make a great watch!

I have had mine about a month and I like it very much I like that it shows my phone calls and counts my steps just wish didn’t have to use your arm all the time when carrying something it holding on the treadmill handles not sure it counts my steps? And I like the sleep feature tell what kind of sleep I have and glad it’s waterproof also hold charge a long time I would recommend this absolutely

I am overall pleased with the vívoactive5 except for the GPS tracking system. Sometimes when I am running. my heart out it will announce that I am going at a much slower pace. I called Garmin about this and they tried updating and resetting. But it is doing the same things.

I made the switch in early August from Apple Watch to Garmin, and the difference has been night and day! From being able to actually track my sleep because I don’t have to charge it every night to customizable workouts and reminders to rest, this watch has changed my life. I work a corporate job so I wanted something that could function as a smartwatch, but I’m also a group fitness instructor and hiking enthusiast so I wanted a watch that could track my varied athletic activities. This watch really hit it out of the park! The Body Battery is my favorite feature, because it lets me know when I need to listen to my body and rest—something I’m not great at doing on my own. I’m never going back!

My third Vivoactive watch. I depend on it to track my sleep quality and activity as well as alerting me to text messages and calls on my iphone. I would have rated it excellent, but I am a bit disappointed in the support for the watch. I can't seem to find out how to change the weather reading from Celsius to Farenheit.

i bought watch about three weeks ago and love it so far. helps track calories and links to other apps such as Myfittnesspal to make tracking and eating easy. good for wearing while running and playing sports. not great at tracking reps when weightlifting but tracks calories and let you edit weight/reps. overall really good. love that it monitors sleep and hydration to help push me to be better

I bought this around Christmas time and am just now starting to use it. There are good points and things I am just not 100% sure of. I have a FR245 that has some battery life issues so I decided to use this watch but, when I finish a run all of the laps don't seem to reflect in the Connect app. Also when I finish a run I am finding that the watch wants to be turned off?? I think maybe I am expecting it to work just like the FR watches and it doesn't and it's something that I need to learn, read up on.

I really like this watch. It’s fairly complex yet fairly simple to Program . I bought this one because I thought it would help me. Keep track of my sleep patterns and it does a good job of that. The other features, I’ve yet to use for the most part, but I do use the flashlight and alarm and a few others. I do like the fact that I can change the face background do something with nature showing!

This is my first watch used to track fitness. I saw a friend and asked her about hers and decided to get the Vivioactive 5. I am imprpressed with the features and how easy it is to operate. I use it for high intensity interval training, yoga, walking and have tried to use it for kayaking. I did not see that as an activity and have substituted Rowing instead. I would love to see kayak as an activity! I like the feature that allows you to monitor your heart rate while doing an activity.

I needed a replacement for a Fitbit Versa 2. I had looked at Garmin in the past, but wasn't ready to buy a new watch. I bought this watch and will never go back to fitbit or any other smart watch. I haven't taken advantage of all the features, but so far it has exceeded my expectations! I have recommended it to friends and family.
