The $150 Garmin Vivosmart 5 is a more understated option. It’s slimmer than the Charge 5 and will blend in with your bracelets and other jewelry more easily. But its appealing form is just half of its allure – Garmin understands how to measure fitness, and the Vivosmart 5 proves that you don’t have to spend hundreds of dollars on one of the company’s fitness watches to receive a decent gadget.
It offers many of the same features as the Charge 5, with the exception of a built-in GPS. It does, however, enable linked GPS, allowing you to track outside runs and bike rides as long as you have your phone with you. The Vivosmart 5 monitors heart rate and activity throughout the day, as well as sleep and workouts, and we’ve always loved how many exercise profiles Garmin offers. You may choose which apps appear on your smartphone and modify them at any time. You’ll also receive extra health information such as Garmin’s Body Battery score, which shows you how long it will take after a hard exercise to train at top performance again, pulse oximetry measures, sleep stage data, women’s health monitoring, and more.
The Vivosmart 5’s main drawbacks are the aforementioned absence of built-in GPS and its somewhat more difficult-to-use mobile app. On the other hand, Garmin devices can sync with Apple Health, although Fitbit devices still do not.
