You know that I love a good running watch, but there’s a soft spot in my heart for the more lifestyle-y Garmin Vivoactive 5. It’s a sleek touchscreen watch with plenty of fitness features, and it’s going for as little as $209 today in Amazon’s Big Spring Sale.
The original price of the Vivoactive 5 is $299, and depending on the color you want, you can get it for somewhere between $209 and $219 in today’s sale. It’s available in black, white, navy blue, and orchid purple.

This watch is one of the most underrated out there, in my opinion. It beat out the Pixel Watch 3 in my comparison of the two watches, due to its week-long battery life and built-in fitness features. Its GPS accuracy is great, and while its heart rate accuracy is only OK, it can connect to a chest strap for the best possible data. (Pixels and Fitbits cannot.)
The Vivoactive 5 uses a touchscreen for most of its functions, but still has two buttons that you can use to start and lap an activity—essential for when you’re fumbling around at the end of a hard interval. During everyday use, it’s sleek and simple, with fitness features and stats only a swipe or button press away.
The aesthetic is a bit more fashionable than something like a Forerunner; where the Forerunner is chunky and sporty, the Vivoactive 5 will blend in nicely with a regular (i.e., non-sweatpants-based) outfit. Heck, get the black or white model, and pair it with a fancier-looking strap for a further visual upgrade. The Vivoactive 5 takes standard 20-millimeter watch bands.
On the other hand, if you’re looking for something with more running-specific features, consider the Garmin Forerunner 165, which is a similar price right now at $225 (normally $249). Or lean into the smartwatch features with a Venu 3, which is slightly larger and has some extra features, like the ability to take calls from your wrist if your phone is nearby. The Venu 3 is $410 today, normally $449.
