Garmin - Vivosmart Activity Tracker (Large) - Black
Garmin Vivosmart Activity Tracker: Track your steps, calories, sleep and other health data, and enjoy access to a free online fitness community. This activity tracker reminds you to move when you sit still for too long, automatically sets a daily step goal based on your current activity level, and has a sleek, invisible OED display that comes to life when you get a call or text.
 
Band is great, IOS app is subpar

The band works great. The only negatives for me is the IOS app. You cannot choose which notifications to receive (you can on the Android App). Also, it doesn't seem to recognize iMessages, but normal MMS it does.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Does it sync with note 5 and can it receive text and calls

Yes, there is an android app called "Connect" by Garmin (it's better than the IOS one). It receives txt messages and notifies of incoming calls. It does not receive calls though.

Does it have a gps?

does the Vivosmart have a gps to measure distance traveled?
No, but you can set custom stride lengths for walking and running to increase accuracy.

Does the vivosmart have back lighting so you can view the display at night? If not - - which Garmin unit has this feature?

Yes. It is oled. The brightness is adjustable and easy to read at night. Not as well in direct sunlight.
