The Garmin Vivoactive 5 is a well-rounded fitness smartwatch that excels at health tracking and battery life. At the current price of £158.59 (24% off), it offers outstanding value for anyone upgrading from a basic fitness band or entry-level watch. It covers the essentials—GPS, sleep, HRV, stress, and sports profiles—without the premium price tag of Garmin's flagship models. The AMOLED display is a treat. However, if you need features like music storage, onboard maps, or advanced training analytics, you might prefer the Venu 2 or Forerunner series. For most users, this is a smart buy.
Editorial review
The Garmin Vivoactive 5 is a versatile GPS smartwatch that combines a bright AMOLED touchscreen with comprehensive health monitoring. With up to 11 days of battery life in smartwatch mode, you can wear it day and night without worrying about frequent charging. It tracks your body's energy levels through Body Battery, giving you personalised insights based on sleep, naps, stress, and workouts. The sleep score and coaching feature helps you understand your rest quality, while HRV status offers a deeper look into your overall health. You get over 30 built-in sports apps, from walking and running to HIIT and swimming, plus a wheelchair mode that counts pushes instead of steps. Automatic nap detection logs your daytime rest and shows how it affects your energy. Other monitoring includes wrist-based heart rate, stress tracking, menstrual cycle tracking, and more. At £158.59, down from £209.99, this is a significant saving of over 24%. The watch is a solid choice for anyone wanting accurate fitness tracking without paying top dollar. Whether you're a runner, a gym-goer, or just keen on better sleep, the Vivoactive 5 delivers reliable data in a stylish package. This is one of the best value Garmin deals we've seen recently.
