Nice smartwatch

  • Very good battery life
  • Lots of apps, lots of information
  • Charging is not possible on all plugs and USB ports, so you have to be aware of that. Or buy an -too-expensive plug.

A lot of "smart" for a great price

  • Much longer battery life compared to smartwatches
  • Calendar notifications, Spotify and other smart functionality
  • The design of the software, both on the watch and in the smartphone app, looks very outdated.

Helper in keeping good intentions

  • More feedback than with my previous Garmin (Forerunner): HRV, Pulse-oxy, sleep score, recovery time, ... (even though this may not be 100% correct, it still gives you an idea)
  • Looks a bit more trendy with a color screen: cool 'visual' when reaching your step goal or activity minutes

Since this is my first sports watch, I have made a long study of the possibilities. I'm not the type to exercise spontaneously, so I mainly wondered whether a sports watch would motivate me to exercise more? I do not actively participate in sports and my exercise is limited to my daily steps. The types that made my shortlist were the vivoactive 5, the Venu 2 and the Forerunner 255.

My main features were the following: Battery life - Sleep analysis - Heart rate analysis - Breathing analysis - Navigation while walking.

Actually, I first wanted to observe my health status and if the underlying algorithm gets me moving, then that is certainly an added value. After comparing all Garmin types for price and capabilities, I mainly hesitated between the vivoactive 5 and the Venu 2, which is slightly more expensive. What the Venu 2 had more was mainly the altimeter, but since the Garmin Connect App adjusts the altimeters afterwards, I personally didn't think it was worth the extra price.

Also the conclusion that live navigation can easily be solved by installing the komoot app, I did not have to look further for more expensive devices. The Vivoactive 5 gives me more than enough data to monitor my current health and the algorithm also provides a motivational message to exercise on time. And I can still activate the Garmin Coach if I want to achieve sports goals.

As a newcomer to the segment, I notice that I often look at my steps to be achieved, my heart rate, breathing frequency, body battery, stress level and sleep analysis.

The only disadvantage when purchasing was the USB-C charging cable that did not fit into a classic USB charger as standard. But luckily there is a connector piece for that that only costs a few euros in the local trinket shop.

I purchased a Garmin Vivoactive 3 over four years ago and have always enjoyed wearing it. But the battery deteriorated and charging did not always happen automatically. Because I have a walking week this summer without electricity, I wanted a new smartwatch with a long battery life, also with GPS. And that's this one. Not much changes for me because I already had the 3.
I also looked at Samsung and other smartwatches. But a: they are often much more expensive and b: the battery only lasts a day, and with GPS on only a few hours. You can't do a walking tour with that.

A lot of "smart" for a great price

  • Much longer battery life compared to smartwatches
  • Calendar notifications, Spotify and other smart functionality
  • Appearance of a normal round watch
  • The design of the software, both on the watch and in the smartphone app, looks very outdated.

In addition to the pros and cons mentioned, I chose this watch because you could listen to Spotify while running without taking your smartphone with you.
