vivoactive 5, GPS Smartwatch for Health, Wellness, & Fitness
Product details
Web ID: 19879678Very disappointed in my vivoactive 5
The first week I had the device, the battery lasted about 5 days. NOW, I need to recharge it every 24 hours. It is not reasonable and very disappointing. I like the feature of the sleep assessment, so I have to charge in the morning and it is not fully charged before I leave for work.

Hoping to love it
I got this as a gift after my Apple Watch died and I was really excited about the 11 day battery life that was advertised but soon realized that only happens if you basically never track anything on your watch. I’ve only gotten at most 3 days on a single charge. Also, the watch band has apparently given me a rash and looking up reviews on Reddit it appears to be a common experience. So I have to spend more money to buy a different band. That’s a bummer. Hope once I get my new band and my rash is gone, I’d be able to start loving it.

Small buttons
Returned after 1 day. Buttons to small for ease of use.

Great iteration of the Vivoactive!
I’ve had this model about a month and I think there is a huge improvement over the Vivoactive 4. The colors are vibrant, it charges faster, I can easily read it underwater, and using it is more intuitive. I’m so pleased!

You can't beat Garmin!
Fantastic watch with all the features just perfect for my needs. It interfaces smoothly with my Google Pixel phone, has an awesome battery life, keeps me motivated to reach my daily health goals, it's comfortable to wear, and I feel safer with it on. Zero regrets!

Poor battery
Watch works great, but battery life is not ideal. Maybe I got a defective one. I charge it every night and it is 40% the next morning!
