Vívoactive 5, Health and Fitness GPS Smartwatch, AMOLED Display, Up to 11 Days of Battery, Slate Aluminum Bezel with Black Case and Silicone Band

Why spend way more on other digital watches when you can get the best watch for a much better price. The watch looks good, battery lasts about 5-7 days depending on use. The heath tracker is fantastic. It helps to keep me honest with my workouts as I send them to my wife after to keep me accountable. I also enjoy playing golf and the golf app has tons of courses and accurate distances. I upgraded from the Garmin Vivoactive 3 and am so happy I did.

I’ve been using the Garmin Vivoactive 5 for a while now and I’m really happy with it. The price is very reasonable for what you get, and the watch feels solid and well built. It’s fully waterproof – I swim with it and wear it in water parks with no issues. The only thing to keep in mind is not to press the buttons while in the water and to lock the screen so you don’t get accidental touches. Battery life is excellent: in normal use I consistently get around 7–10 days on a single charge. The watch is light and not too big, which makes it very comfortable to wear all day and night. The display is easy to read even in bright sunlight, which is a big plus if you spend a lot of time outdoors. In my opinion, the value for money is great – it’s a very successful combination of price and quality. One detail worth mentioning is that notifications come only via Bluetooth. Unlike some Samsung watches that can also use Wi-Fi for notifications (which increases range but drains the battery faster), the Vivoactive 5 relies on Bluetooth, which helps preserve battery life. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this watch and would definitely recommend it.

Great for runners or workout enthusiasts. Tracks every thing possible: miles, heart rate, sleep habits. Know what kind of day you are having ie if you are stressed or didn’t get a lot of sleep. Love the rubber band makes it easy to were running and to bed. Sleep design. A must purchase for the serious athlete.

I am very happy with my Garmin Vivoactive 5. It was easy to set up, and the battery life is outstanding — lasting up to 10 days on a single charge, which is very impressive. The app is user-friendly and makes it simple to track and understand my data. Fitness and step tracking are accurate, and the built-in GPS works great for outdoor activities. I also love the bright, beautiful AMOLED display — it’s clear and easy to read in any lighting. The wellness features are extensive, including stress tracking, sleep coaching, Body Battery energy monitoring, and more. I’m still learning all the additional features, but so far, I’m very satisfied. Overall, I am very hapy with my purchase.

I’m someone who really really did not want a watch of any sort, especially not an Apple Watch or anything else that is bloated with unnecessary hardware that needs to be charged every single day. Charging a phone every day is enough of a pain without needing to add any other junk, so no thanks to the useless gimmick-loaded “smart” watches. But I really needed to do fitness tracking because without some sort of gadget I just have zero idea how lazy or not lazy I’ve been lately and whether or not I need to get at least some minimal exercise. And my #1 must have feature is week-long battery charge life. This watch is good enough, even though the battery life might be more like 5 days in some cases if you’re using it for activities a lot where the gps is turned on. But for those not running with the gps every day or constantly tinkering with it a full battery charge seems to last a week. That is, charge it for an hour on Sunday and no need to charge it again until the same time next Sunday. You could get the battery to last longer if you’re willing to shut off absolutely everything that might use more power. I started out with a Garmin vivosmart 5 because I didn’t think I needed anything beyond that, but I have sleep problems and decided I needed better sleep tracking. So I ended up with this one even though I don’t really care about random silly “apps” on a watch. Overall this watch has been excellent. It has a very good UI and the fitness tracking features a quite good. The sleep tracking is decent, but still has its issues that hopefully Garmin will fix with software updates. In particular the “nap tracking” doesn’t seem fully baked yet, and things like laying back in a recliner reading a book or watching TV can get falsely detected as a “nap”. Then there’s no way to delete a false nap on the watch or in the Garmin Connect app. There are still a few minor bugs that some people will run into but they seem to be things that can be fixed with firmware updates and I haven’t run into anything completely feature-breaking. If you feel like messing with it you can also install some “apps” like custom watch face designs or sunset/sunrise times, more detailed weather and such. But even without installing anything the watch does everything needed for health and fitness stuff. Almost all of the apps that come with the device can be uninstalled, so if you don’t need “women’s health tracking” for example then you can just remove that to free up space. Their mobile app is pretty well designed and only awkward in some parts of the configuration. The watch reliably synchronizes as long as you leave the phone app running in the background and I’ve never had any Bluetooth connection failures, lag, or lost pairings. Things that the watch is not good for are things that you’d typically use a phone for like communication, turn by turn navigation, maps, games, and such. But I don’t want a watch to do any of that stuff and I’d rather have it save its battery charge so I don’t have to charge it constantly. So overall, this is “the” watch you want if you want as little nonsense as possible and don’t want to worry about battery charge all the time but still need full health and fitness tracking stuff beyond what the $75-150 models offer. And there are also no subscriptions required.

Opinie piszę po około 3 tygodniach od zakupu, więc zdążyłem już dobrze zapoznać się z zegarkiem. Produkt jest rewelacyjny i spełnia moje wszystkie oczekiwania, a nawet więcej. Świetne wykonanie, zegarek jest lekki, a pasek bardzo miękki, dzięki czemu praktycznie nie czuć go na ręce. Rewelacyjny wyświetlacz, na którym wszystko idealnie widać nawet w pełnym słońcu. Przy ciągłym pomiarze tętna, włączonych powiadomieniach ze smartfona, rejestracji kilku aktywności i dokonywaniu nim kilku płatności dziennie, zegarek wytrzymuje na jednym ładowaniu 7 pełnych dób i zazwyczaj jeszcze jest około 20-30% baterii. Jak dla mnie wynik rewelacyjny. Świetne modyfikowalne tarcze, które możemy za darmo pobrać ze sklepu Connect IQ. Zegarek sprawdzi się w przypadku osoby która chce mieć nieduży i lekki zegarek z płatnościami zbliżeniowymi, z ciągłym monitorowaniem stanu zdrowia i rejestrowaniem aktywności. Oczywiście dla wyczynowych sportowców Garmin ma lepsze urządzenia, jednak dla amatorów jest to bardzo dobry wybór.

Lo compré con descuento, fue una gran compra, el tamaño de la pantalla, el ajuste y todo me encantó. Fue muy fácil de sincronizar con la aplicación que además es gratuita. Es de los mejores monitores cardiacos del mercado y el seguimiento de sueño es muy interesante.

I’ve been really happy with the Garmin vívoactive 5. It’s comfortable to wear all day, has great battery life, and the fitness and health tracking are very accurate. I love the sleep tracking and Body Battery feature. The screen is clear, workouts are easy to track, and it looks good for both exercise and daily wear. Definitely worth it if you want a simple, reliable fitness smartwatch.

Nice watch that does everything I need- hr, sats, steps, sleep, vo2 max, gps for exercise tracking… quite a big face and I bought the screen protector which makes it pretty bulky but still- not a bad looking watch. Checked the reviews- made no sense to get the vivoactive 6- this one actually more user friendly.

Fiquei muito satisfeita, produto chegou certinho e muito rápido, não atrasou. Relógio original, estou usando já tem uns 2 meses e estou muito satisfeita, resistente à água, já tomei banho com ele, nadei, e ele está em perfeito estado, é leve e confortável e tem muitas funcionalidades que me agradaram.
