Our take on the Garmin Vivoactive 5 Fitness Tracker Case

The Vivoactive 5 is Garmin's mid-range GPS smartwatch with a bright AMOLED touchscreen, built-in GPS and heart rate, and a slim aluminum case with Gorilla Glass. It covers running, cycling, swimming and multisport, plus sleep tracking, SpO2 and a pedometer, and works with iPhone and Android over Bluetooth. It sits below the Venu 3 and Forerunner 265: it has no barometer, no altimeter and no running power or training-load depth, but it is lighter and simpler than those. Reviewers call it a strong everyday fitness watch for casual runners and gym-goers who want Garmin battery life and health tracking without paying for a full training watch.

Questions and answers

Is the Vivoactive 5 good for running?
Yes for casual runs: it has built-in GPS, heart rate and pace, and it tracks distance and routes well. Runners who want training load, recovery time or running power should look at the Forerunner 265 instead.
Does it work with an iPhone?
Yes. It pairs over Bluetooth with both iPhone and Android and shows notifications, calls and health data through the Garmin Connect app.
Can I swim with it?
Yes. It is water resistant and has a pool swim profile that counts laps and strokes. It does not track open-water distance as precisely as Garmin's swim-focused watches.
Does it have offline music?
No. The base Vivoactive 5 has no music storage, so you need your phone for music during workouts. The Music edition adds storage for playlists.
How is it different from the Venu 3?
The Venu 3 adds a barometer, a speaker and microphone for calls, more detailed sleep and recovery insights, and music storage. The Vivoactive 5 is lighter and simpler, with the same screen style and core fitness tracking.
What is in the box?
The watch with a silicone strap and a charging cable. It does not include a wall adapter or spare strap.
