This Garmin fitness tracker is just as good (if not better) than an Apple Watch — and it's on sale right now
You can get the Garmin Vivoactive 5 for 37% off right now.
The Vivoactive 5 has many of Garmin’s signature fitness and health tracking features, but is slimmer and sleeker than models like the Garmin Venu 3 and Garmin Forerunner 165. It still has plenty of my favorite Garmin features: sleep coaching, Garmin coach training, workout benefit summaries, workout recovery times and over 30 supported exercise modes.
It’s not all fitness — the Vivoactive tracks your basic health metrics, sleep, naps and notifications, and can be used for tap-to-pay. Plus, it has wellness features like meditation modes and guided breathing exercises.
It’s also important to note that it gets up to 11 days of battery life. That’s long enough that I almost forget I need to charge at all — a far cry from the daily charging of my Apple Watch.
The Vivoactive 5 works with iPhone and Android devices and comes in four colors — the black and ivory colors have the steepest discount right now.
