ASUS VivoWatch Review

Features

Apart from the obvious tracking features, VivoWatch also has some additional bells and whistles to further enhance the experience of its users.

Shortcut button – brings you back to the watch face after swiping through your stats. It also lights up the display for when you’re in low light areas. Pressing and holding it for four seconds activates the Exercise Mode that continuously detects your heart rate in real-time.

Assisted UV Index – lets you check the current UV level from the sun and avoid the risk of over-exposure to its harmful ultra-violet rays.

Auto Sync – automatically transfers data from the watch to the paired smartphone with the use of Bluetooth. This includes records and achievements of activities.

LED indicator – shows a green pulsing light (based on the heart rate) when you’re effectively burning calories; red for when you need to take things slower

Happiness Index (HI) – shows an overall rating of your wellness based on your activities and sleeping patterns. The more you maintain a good exercise and get enough sleep, the higher the HI will be.

Activity reminder – tells you when you’ve been inactive for too long and encourages you to start moving.
