    Great Health Watch

    I picked this watch out for my birthday and it is doing exactly what I want it to do. At first I had too many things turned on and that battery drained in a day. After figuring out the menu systema and what I actually wanted the battery is lasting a number of days now. I am very happy with this product.

    Purchased a few weeks ago. Overall not bad. Sad it does not have a compass. Athletic tracking not bad. Sleep tracker much better than my Fitbit

    Mixed Feelings

    I bought this Vivoactive 5 primarily from the recommendation of a family member. I should have done a little more research. My main desired upgrades (from my apple watch) was the long battery life and the sleep tracking. Total win for these 2 things! I only charge it once a week and the charging takes less than 2 hours. Awesome! The sleep tracking is also fantastic. My disappointments come from a few things: 1. I cant answer texts on my watch. 2. I cant use Siri on the watch. 3. It doesnt have any sound notifications. It only vibrates once for any notification, and ALL notifications (text, email, app, workout, etc) are all the same vibration, so I find myself checking my watch and phone CONSTANTLY. (The apple watch followed the settings of my phone, so if I had a certain sound for a text vs email vs app, the "ding" on the watch was different. So, I could hear the ding and know if I really needed to responding or if I could continue to just do my job. It also only vibrates ONCE, no matter that I have my phone set to notify me 3 times of an unanswered text, so I find that I am missing texts. I also miss calls because it only vibrates one little time (instead of a continual vibration until answered or declined). 4. It doesn't have an altimeter (wont calculate elevation gain, and therefore, no "hiking" activity tracking). I also realize that the Vivoactive is kinda the bottom of the feature list and therefore on the more affordable end. I could have paid more and gotten all the bells and whistles. The fitness part of this is spot on. I like all the details you can get from a workout. My mixed review is just that it is more of a fitness watch than an extension of your phone and that it probably just a "me" problem. Overall, I really do like this watch and do not intend to go back to my apple watch that I had to charge everyday.

    So-So

    For the most part I like the Vivoactive 5, it’s similar to the Fitbit Versa that I had. I like that the face can be customized for my needs. I DO NOT like that it continually connects and disconnects from my iPhone 15. I sent the first Vivoactive back because of this ISSUE but this 2nd one does the same which must be a Sotware problem. I also wish the face was a little smaller especially for smaller wrists.

    Yuck

    The price they charge for this watch and they don’t give you a decent charger for it with the plug-in. It’s ridiculous. It’s difficult to figure out how to use it. It’s just a big PIA not happy.

    Super functional and battery life, screen fragile.

    I'd maybe go 3.5 so far, but rounded up to 4. As far as the overall use of the VIvoactive I am happy. Having used other devices, the touch screen and ease of use/simplicity is not quite as straightforward. The touch screen isn't always responsive. The data from Sleep and Exercise are better than other watches I've used. The battery life is amazing, easily get a week+ in between charges. Happy with the weight, size, and so far I'd buy another Garmin for my next device. My biggest complaint so far is the fragility of the screen. For a device advertised for activity, swimming, active lifestyle, my screen cracked in 2 places with 1 minor drop. I accidentally dropped the watch and the case has multiple scratches and the screen, while still functional, is cracked. I am concerned now about any use around water and how much more durable it will be for what I hope is more years of use. I'm disappointed in the damage of the screen but overall happy with my Garmin.

    Great watch for my needs

    I got this watch as a replacement for my first vivoactive 5. my original watch which was several years old. it stopped charging. Garmin replaced with a remanufactured watch at no charge. The remanufactured watch works fine and looks brand new. I am very pleased that Garmin provided the replacement watch at no cost. concerning the each itself. I love it. it looks great and does everything I need. I use it primarily for biking, hiking and walks, and basketball.

    Overall, this is a good watch. By far, the best feature is the battery life. If I don’t do any activities, I can get over a week without having to recharge. My wife has an iWatch and she can’t even get through the whole day

    Excellent craftsmanship

    This is my second Garmin watch, but the vivoactive has exceeded all my expectations. I haven't begun to really explore all the functionality, I inputted the basic and the watch did the rest, it put me to bed and wakes me up. A great piece of technology...

    Worked well...but only for 3 months.

    This is a good watch and would be fantastic if it worked beyond a few months. It also would be helpful if it didn't require multiple apps for simple uses-like a personalized watch face. The watch also didn't automatically track activities well and the interface was needlessly complicated and not user friendly.
