Some text too small

Basically. I think this is a good watch. Some of the text, especially in notifications, is so small that it requires reading glasses which definitely doesn't work in the Sun. And when they send you a notification, it's only up for 2 to 3 seconds. By the time you put on reading glasses, it's gone. So it does you know good. I would not buy this watch again.Because I think there are others out there.That would have suited my needs bettearth.But it will be fine.I don't hate it, it's very pretty.

Great visibility

I have been using my vĂ­voactive 5 for 3 weeks now and absolutely love the bright readable display. I was having issues reading my old venu, the pixels were getting dim. I am still learning all of the features. I like listening to music on my earphones without needing my cellphone.

Very disappointed in my vivoactive 5

The first week I had the device, the battery lasted about 5 days. NOW, I need to recharge it every 24 hours. It is not reasonable and very disappointing. I like the feature of the sleep assessment, so I have to charge in the morning and it is not fully charged before I leave for work.

The vivoactive 5 is compatible with both iPhone and Android phones. The recommended OS version is 16.0 or higher for iOS and 9 or higher for Android.
