||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I loved the actual product, it worked great, but when I received it some of the pixels were missing on the screen.

I would recommend this to a friendToo Much Work
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I didn't have a lot of time to learn how this works. I tried it for a few days and didn't find it to be helpful. I returned the item. It's probably a great item. It just took too much work to figure out.

Posted .Thank you for taking the time to review the vívosmart. We're sorry to hear you returned it so quickly. The vívosmart band displays steps, calories, distance and time of day, while also offering smart notifications like vibration alerts for calls, texts and emails from your compatible smartphone.
Although you've already returned the device, we did want to address your issue with finding it too much work to figure out. There is an quick 'how to' page that explains getting started, and setting up the device on the Garmin support page here: http://connect.garmin.com/en-US/start/vivosmart/gcm. The full owner's manual can be downloaded at the following link: http://bit.ly/1rbzBjN. There's also a tutorial, with FAQ's, and links to several helpful videos at http://bit.ly/1y5NIU0.
We do appreciate your feedback, and hope you may reconsider the vívosmart in the future.
Thank you. *CG
sub-optimal
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really wanted to love this thing, but alas it fell short of expectations. It has rather poor battery life (2-3 days with moderate to heavy cardio use) and the screen doesn't stay illuminated to use it functionally for workouts. As well, the "screen illuminates with lifting of the wrist" functionality is unreliable and inconsistent.

Posted .The battery life on the vívosmart can be impacted by several factors, including screen brightness, frequency of smart notifications, and frequency of heart rate monitor or speed sensor use. Depending on usage, a single charge of the vívosmart's rechargeable battery can last up to 7 days.
The screen illuminating when lifting your wrist is a feature called auto-on. The auto-on feature is designed to conserve battery life and should trigger by turning your wrist toward your body. We recommend checking Garmin Connect to ensure that the correct wrist orientation is set to how you wear the vívosmart. Additionally, double-tapping the vívosmart will turn on the display. If problems persist, please contact our support team at www.garmin.com/us/support.
Thank you for the feedback and review! ^DK
