I bought it about 2 weeks ago and it is really great, especially the blood oxygen reading, what is important to me. It has tons of exercise on the watch, sleep monitor ist the best i ever had. The only thing is, that the face of the watch changes oder dissappear suddenly. NO idea why, but I will find it out. Otherwise a wonderful smartwatch!

Excellent watch. Very comfy and tracks everything you can think of. I use it for making custom workouts and tracking my sleep. I also use it for tracking my vitals while snowboarding and mtb. Theres so much more you can do with it. Anyone could enjoy this watch. Battery life is over 5 days for me.

Got this for my wife as she was tired of her Apple watch. I did a lot of research online to figure out which one would be best for her. Yeah it won't do everything an apple watch does BUT it does do things an Apple Watch doesn't do. Go on YouTube to hear the product breakdown from people to learn warm. She would recommend it to anyone. The watch is customizable in many ways and looks great. The only negative was she got irritation from the band.

Switched from Fitbit to Garmin. I feel the info provided from the garmin is less than accurate. Working out HR shows 70-80 ewhile manual HR check at same time is in the 120's. HR in tje period after exercise shows higher than while exercising. Resting HR is consistently 5-7 beats lower than avg HR while sleeping. Not sure why this is and Fitbit did not provide this info so nothing to compare too. Sometimes steps are not counted or delayed in reporting? My stats from days and times I exercise are no different than days or times I don't exercise so not helpful to monitor progress. Showed 1 hr nap while up and active fixing dinner. Battery life 8-8 days not 11 and that is with notifications and GPS off. Garmin may be good for somethings but for routine tracking of steps, HR, Sleep etc other companies may be better

After 5 years of being an apply watch user I switched to garmin and am not very impressed. I do like the sleep statistics, but feel that the vivoactive is missing a lot of activities that I used to track all the time on my Apple Watch. If they added rock climbing/ bouldering, dancing, and barre I would be more impressed. It also has a lot of glitches.

My Vivoactive 4 had a great feature under golf. It had a live screen telling the distance since the last impact. So I always knew how long I drove the ball. This was also handy to help locate an errant ball since i could go the direction of the ball and use the distance to reduce the search radius. It also helped give feedback on the impact of a swing change. I can't speak for the Vivoactive 5 but that feature was lost on the Vivoactive 6. There is a way to check the distance, but it is too cumbersome to actively use it on the golf course. All of the other changes that I've used have been nice and some real improvements.

This is my 4th Garmin watch and the best one yet. It has great battery life and connects well. One of the features that I especially like is being able to set the font size at setup. I selected a large font size which makes it very easy to read. Love that it tells me Good Morning and gives me the weather. I am very happy with my purchase.

I have owned Garmin cyclometers for many, many years to measure my effort when cycling. My age (low 70s) has pushed me more into the gym than on the open road for workouts. I wasn't pleased with the type of information Fitbit was providing me. I moved to a Garmin watch and I've been very happy with it thus far. It pairs with all of my Garmin sensors and gives me useful feedback on workouts of all kinds. It seems to give very good monitoring of sleep habits and daily rest and exercise. Overall, this was a great choice for me.

I got this watch a month ago. I like the look, sleeker than my previous watch, fits better on my nature wrist. The features I want are there, easily accessible. Some of the features that I don't want, I can't turn off which is frustrating. I didn't have sleep issues, yet its a permanent function. So instead I take it off at night. Other than that its what I wanted from a watch.

I bought this about a month ago to help improve my overall health. I felt like the garmin watch was able to provide me more health data than my Apple Watch could provide! So far I been really enjoying the he health features and the gps during runs. It's been interesting seeing all the features to figure how to decrease stress levels and improve overall cardiovascular health
