Garmin is making waves today. First things first: Garmin has just launched Garmin Connect+, a paid tier of their health tracking service that gives AI insights, more challenges, and extra features for Garmin watch wearers. Despite some community pushback, there are no deprecated features from the free tier, making this a strict upgrade. Then, we’ve also seen the Garmin Vivoactive 5 go on sale for up to $91 off the base price. The Garmin Vivoactive 5 is typically $300, but we’re seeing it offered for $220. That’s a savings of $80. But, you can get a white one from Amazon for just $209, a savings of $91, or a black one from Walmart for just $215, a savings of $85. Choose your favorite retailer and tap the button below to start shopping, or keep reading for more info on the Garmin Vivoactive 5.
Why you should buy a Garmin Vivoactive 5
Garmin’s Vivoactive 5 is a comfortable, stylish, and easy to use smartwatch. With around 11 days of battery life, you’ll get a good picture into your rhythms at periods of a week or more at a time. The watch analyzes your sleep and energy levels, giving you advice on when to go to sleep and when to wake up for an optimal you. And, of course, there are sports and training apps included within the watch, with special workouts made explicitly for those that need to use a wheelchair. This is a smartwatch made for a wide variety of people and is a safe gift.
Let’s loop back around for a moment to that new subscription service. In our Garmin Vivoactive 5 review, we praised the smartwatch for a handful of things that included its AMOLED display and great battery life. We even called it an Apple Watch alternative. But there’s one more item in the “Pros” list that needs to be looked at again in light of recent events, “No subscription needed.” That’s still true and the features discussed in the review are still present. It’s just that now you can pay for extras. In other words, this is still one of the best smartwatches and it is only getting better with a subscription, not worse. There is no subscription required for legacy features of the Garmin Vivoactive 5.
