    I’ve just got the vivoactive 5 for the purpose of health tracking and weight loss / fitness. It’s my first SmartWatch. I’m very impressed with it, looks/feels great, full colour amoled but still over 10 days of battery life easily, etc.

    The problem with Garmin is the amount of artificial segmentation they do, I know my watch is randomly crippled on some stuff (like no altimeter) to push people to the more expensive models, but since it’s my first one I don’t really know what I’m missing and the price/feature ratio felt good for me, maybe in a year if I keep at it I’ll miss some of that but for now it’s really helping me out with my lifestyle changes.
