Our take on the Garmin vivoactive 5 Watch

The Garmin vivoactive 5 is a GPS smartwatch with a bright AMOLED touchscreen and up to 11 days of battery life in smartwatch mode. It is built around health and fitness tracking: heart rate, sleep, Body Battery, stress, women's health, and more than 30 built-in sport apps, plus Garmin Pay and phone notifications. It suits people who want a light everyday watch that also logs workouts and recovery, rather than a rugged multisport or diving watch. Against the Apple Watch it trades app depth and a cellular option for multi-day battery life and a lighter build; against the Venu 3 it drops the speaker and microphone and some advanced training metrics.

Questions and answers

Is the vivoactive 5 worth it over a basic fitness tracker?
Yes, if you want GPS, a color touchscreen and phone notifications on the wrist. A basic band is lighter and cheaper but tracks fewer sports and shows less data.
How is it different from the Venu 3?
The Venu 3 adds a speaker and microphone for calls and voice assistant, plus more advanced training and recovery metrics. The vivoactive 5 keeps the AMOLED screen and long battery in a lighter, simpler package.
Does it work with an iPhone?
Yes. It pairs with both Android and iPhone through the Garmin Connect app for notifications, syncing and settings.
Can I swim with it?
Yes. It is water-resistant to 5 ATM and has a pool swim profile, so it handles showers and lap swimming. It is not built for diving.
Does it have built-in GPS?
Yes. It has built-in GPS, so runs, rides and walks are tracked without your phone.
What is in the box?
The watch, a charging cable and documentation. The strap is already fitted.
Where is the Garmin vivoactive 5 Watch cheapest?
At In The Bag Disc Golf Company, for $224.99, as of our latest check.
