People commended the vivoactive 5’s upgrade to an AMOLED screen and refreshed interface, along with its long battery life (about 11 days) and accurate heart‑rate and GPS tracking. However, it was issues were raised about the removal of the barometric altimeter and workout animations, and the omission of Garmin’s Training Readiness or ECG features that appear on more expensive models. Users appreciate the wide range of sports modes, on‑watch music streaming and useful sleep coaching tools, yet note that the single button and touch interface can be fiddly and the lack of an altimeter means elevation data is missing. Overall the watch is regarded as a feature‑rich mid‑range option that hits a sweet spot on price, even if it doesn’t include every premium sensor.
