Product description
Skip to specifications Garmin vívoactive Series Garmin vívoactive® 5 GPS Smartwatch A bright AMOLED fitness smartwatch with up to 11 days of battery. Body Battery, Sleep Coach, HRV Status, 30+ sports apps, wheelchair mode, music and Garmin Pay in a light 42 mm design. 1.2″ AMOLED Up to 11 days Built-in GPS 36 g Our Take The vívoactive 5 is the Garmin we recommend most to people buying their first real fitness watch. It has the bright AMOLED screen people expect from a smartwatch, but lasts up to 11 days between charges instead of one. Where it earns its keep is health. Body Battery tells you how much energy you have today. Sleep Coach and HRV Status show whether you actually recovered. Built-in GPS, 30+ sports apps and VO2 max cover your workouts, and wheelchair mode makes it one of the few mainstream smartwatches built for wheelchair users. Know what it is not: there is no barometric altimeter, so no floors climbed, and no running power or route following. If those matter, step up to the vívoactive 6 or a Forerunner. For everyday health, fitness and smart features, the vívoactive 5 covers it. Tap for details Bright AMOLED Display A 1.2-inch 390 x 390 AMOLED touchscreen wi
