Stepping up in the same dial colour
The vívosmart 5 is the direct successor to the vívosmart 4, and the most significant change is one you notice immediately: the OLED touchscreen is 66% larger than its predecessor's, with a physical button added below the display to make navigation more reliable than touch alone. The result is a tracker that is genuinely easier to read and operate without feeling bulkier on the wrist. At 24.5 grams the device is light enough to disappear during sleep tracking, which matters given that continuous monitoring — heart rate, blood oxygen, respiration, stress — runs around the clock rather than on demand. There is no standalone GPS, but it will borrow a connected phone's signal to log pace and distance outdoors. The silicone band and its plastic pin buckle need no tools to fit and will survive everything the 50-metre rating implies.

Learn more about Garmin
Gary Burrell and Min Kao founded Garmin in 1989 — the name is a contraction of their first names — to build GPS receivers for aviation and marine use. Consumer navigation came later, and wearables later still.
Unlike most names in this directory that arrived from outside watchmaking, Garmin is not a licence. It designs and builds its own devices, writes its own software and runs its own satellite-positioning stack, which is why its watches do things Swiss houses do not attempt.
The fenix line established the template in 2012: a rugged multi-sport GPS watch with mapping, altimeter and week-long battery life. Forerunner covers running, Instinct the hard-wearing end, Venu the smartwatch end, and the MARQ line puts the same electronics in titanium and sapphire at Swiss prices.
Battery life is the differentiator. Where most smartwatches are measured in days, Garmin measures in weeks, and in solar-charging models sometimes in months.
These are instruments rather than heirlooms, and they date the way electronics date — but for anyone who actually trains, they are among the few watches on the market that earn their place.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
Will the glass scratch?
Yes, but it polishes out. Acrylic marks easily and a scratch can be buffed away at home, which is why vintage-style watches still use it.
Does it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as unisex, and at this size it suits any wrist that takes the dimensions.
