Less than a week ago, my colleague shared a surprisingly good promo on the Garmin Vivoactive 5 at Amazon. Honestly, I didn't expect the deal to last too long. Not only is it still here, though; actually, one particular model is now on sale at an even lower price.

Yep, the Vivoactive 5 in Black is now available with a smashing 42% discount at the e-commerce giant. That brings the $300 smartwatch with a battery life of up to 11 days below the $175 mark. In case you're wondering, it's never been this cheap before.

In case you're looking for a more premium Garmin watch, consider the Venu 4. It's down by $50 at Amazon right now.

Unlike many Garmin models, the Vivoactive 5 packs an OLED touchscreen, making it easier to read outdoors. The model is also quite lightweight, so you can wear it all day long without really noticing it on your wrist. That makes it a great choice for tracking workouts, too.

Speaking of which, the wearable supports a slew of workout types, including swimming, skiing, and e-bike riding, giving you detailed insights into your performance across different activities.

As my colleague Vic mentions in our Garmin Vivoactive 5 review, the device is also excellent at tracking your heart rate. Even though hardcore athletes probably won't find it perfectly flawless on its own, it should prove more than capable for casual users.

But if you ask me, the best part about this bad boy is the battery life. With an always-on display, you can get up to four days on a single charge. If you turn off the feature, however, Garmin estimates you can expect up to 11 days of use. Now that's more than what any Galaxy Watch can deliver.

With Amazon now selling the Vivoactive 5 at its best price ever, this wearable is a particularly tempting option for those after a capable smartwatch at a decent price. Act fast and grab the model in Black for 42% off while you still have time.
