Versatile Tracker
This is a nice watch for a wide variety of people. I'm not into sports but it works just fine for my focus on health tracking. It gives me enough depth for sleep and daily stats to be very useful. I think it would be useful for people into sports too.

Horrible battery life
If the battery life lasted more than a day, Id really like this watch. The first week it worked fine with minimal features. Then it did a software update. Now it won't last more than 24 hours with a full charge on the battery saver setting.

So helpful!!
I love the “new to me” features with this watch. Compass, hints, morning reflection, and encouragements throughout the day. More features than I expected with this upgrade.

Great fitness watch!
I bought this looking for a great fitness tracker for overall workouts and runs with all of the tracking. I’ve had the watch for 2 weeks now and I really love the sleep tracker and the programmable workouts so I don’t need to keep checking my phone. I also horseback ride and while I do hope that in the future, that feature will be available on this watch, the cycle fea...

Garmin over Apple any day
I’ve had this watch for over two weeks now and it easily out does my Apple Watch hands over fist. Yes it doesn’t have all of the fitness activities the Apple Watch has, but it by far more accurate and more reliable. I’m glad I bought this watch and slowly getting away from the Apple eco system.

Great Features
I bought this a month ago and I love it! It tracks everything even your sleep and it recommends how many hours of sleep you should get every night and I need to get my sleep on course! I also like how it gives you medals for activities that you do

Replacement for Garmin Tracker
I've used Garmin trackers for years. My last one finally bit the dust and I bought a Vivoactive 5. Very happy with it. The battery is fantastic. I charge it once a week and it usually has 35% or more left.

Great Features and Long Lasting Battery
I had my Garmin watch for almost 3 weeks now and I am impressed with the features on it and I am also impressed with how long the battery lasts before I have to charge it again. I have an Apple Watch and I had it for a few years and I would need to charge it maybe twice in the same day. I still will continue to use my Apple Watch so that I can track all of my activity o...

A nice upgrade from the vivo active 4
I got this watch, because my vivo active 4 stop working and it has been a great upgrade so far. Improved battery life and display. Plus, the new activities are great for me, especially soccer.

Not Happy
I have problems with the Vivoactive 5 watch and need to do an upgrade.
The features don't always work correctly, and it's not much better than the vivoactive 4.

My first and favorite smartwatch
It’s been almost 1-1/2 years since I bought this, and I’m still happy with my purchase! I bought this because I wanted to track my swimming (I’m a biker and love tracking stats, but I needed something that worked in the water). I love how it also tracks my sleep and rest, had many options for sports, and can be paired with my phone )no, thanks; I love being able to disc...
