The Garmin Vivosmart 5 looks a little out of date. On the other hand, the inner values are right: it scores with accurate recording and the few smart functions are also successful. Unfortunately, the mobile has to be used for GPS. The display is also too small and has no colours. NFC and always-on display are also missing.

The Garmin Vivosmart 5 looks a little out of date and is more reminiscent of Samsung's first attempts. On the other hand, the inner values are right: it scores with accurate recording, and the few smart functions are also successful. Unfortunately, the mobile needs GPS.

In the fifth edition of the classic Vivosmart fitness tracker series, Garmin has done a lot right, as our test shows. The Garmin Vivosmart 5 is comfortable to wear, records a lot of data and is easy to use thanks to clever menu navigation and clear displays. In direct sunlight, however, it is difficult to read the pricey tracker.
