Right now you still have time to score some great prices on great devices, and Walmart is offering the Garmin Vivoactive 5 smartwatch for just $189. That’s 37% off its regular price of $289 so you end up saving a total of $100.
This is Walmart’s price for Cyber Monday and that means the price is likely to go back up after today. It may not be all the way back up to the full price but it is likely to be more than what it is now. The Garmin Vivoactive 5 is a smartwatch just like any other on the market, however, it does have a focus on health and GPS-related features. Garmin is mostly known for its GPS devices, so that aspect of this watch might just play into what you’re looking for.
In terms of features, the watch can do pretty much anything you might want a smartwatch to do. It tracks all kinds of exercises from running to cycling, and it also has a sleep coach and several built-in sports apps. One of the more unique features you can only find on Garmin smartwatches is the Body Battery. With the Body Battery feature, the watch can help you get a better handle on your energy levels.
The point is so that you know when it’s ok to keep exercising and when you need to rest. Like most things in life, you’ll perform better in your exercises when you’re more well-rested. The watch also has continuous heart rate monitoring, smartphone notifications and texting, and even some meditation and mindful breathing guidance. My favorite feature, though, is probably the nap detection. This automatically tracks your naps, or you can manually log them, to see how they impact and benefit your body.
