Comparison between Vivoactive 5 and Venu 3
With so many changes to the vivoactive 5 it is more appropriate to compare it to the new Venu 3 rather than the previous vivoactive 4.
- Available in only one case size: 42mm - the Venu 3 has two; smaller 41mm and larger 45mm
- The watch does not contain a microphone for making or receiving calls
- There is no voice assistant for sending hands-free text messages
- There are no audio prompts for your running and walking activities
- The Elevate 4 heart-rate monitor means the vivoactive 5 will never be ECG capable
- There is no barometric altimeter - elevation data is provided by the GPS only
- There is no jet lag advisor
- There are no animated workouts
- The watch cannot be paired with power meters or smart trainers
