The Garmin Vivosmart 5 tracks heart rate, steps, sleep and activity, but also gives you more insight into your energy levels. But for $150, it feels a bit pricey considering this fitness tracker doesn’t have a color screen or built-in GPS.

    Buy mi band 😂 it’s way better

    • Mr Egusi

      You have to be absolutely delusional to even compare a Mi Band to a Garmin.
      I have never seen a serious athlete wear a xiaomi.

    • Fareez Rashdan

      Mi Band much better and affordable for many consumers. There no brand can beat the price and have decent quality like Mi Band.

      @Fareez Rashdan Mi band’s HR sensor and sleep tracking are terrible

    • Hayden Wong

      April 20, 2022 at 10:48 pm

      For the average user the mi band is great but for serious athletes then neither the vivosmart 5 or the mi band is great

    Meh, just 150 USD… I am looking for a band more expensive – something like 750-900 USD…

    • Vijaya kakde

      April 20, 2022 at 1:53 pm

      Give me rest of 750USD and get this one. You will have a satisfaction that it did cost you 900USD😉

    • Kingkongolee

      What a coincidence, Im offering a special version of the Garmin vivosmart. It only comes for 899 USD plus shipping.

      Hai boy haaaaiiiii 👋

    Wow, overpriced late to the market product review great video. NOT. I’ll admit I like
    Garmin, but I only buy from the second market because there stuff is overpriced.

    Excellent review! Disappointing that it’s mono screen! Does it have Garmin Pay?

    do people wear smart watch while sleeping?

    • Hayden Wong

      April 20, 2022 at 10:49 pm

      I do

    • Ben Dover

      April 21, 2022 at 2:02 am

      The vivosmart watches I definitely do. Because it is so slim it’s A LOT more comfortable than most smart watches that USUALLY have a huge clock interface

    • heymoona

      April 21, 2022 at 2:12 am

      @Ben Dover thanks, was thinking of getting one

    • Ben Dover

      April 21, 2022 at 2:43 am

      @heymoona me too! I was about to buy the 4 the other week…. Glad I held off!
      I’ve been wearing an older version everyday for 3 years now and STILL no issues!
      Best piece of technology I’ve ever owned…
      😊

    What a terrific review! Very detailed but presented in a way everyone can understand. I thoroughly enjoyed this video.

    Great review and it was very engaging. But considering I already have a samsumg galaxy watch 4 I’m not going get this because of how overpriced this is…

    GARMIN IS WORTH $$$$$$$

    Yea this is a hard pass black and white screen, no color, have to take your phone with you and over priced I’ll stick with my Fitbit.

    $150 for a simple looking fitness band? I could buy two Xiaomi smart bands with that price, and they’re more advanced than this
