The EDA scan claims to be a measure of stress it requires you to hold the device’s edges between thumb and forefinger for three minutes while you sit still and try to follow on-screen breathing prompts. These include new sensor strips on either side that enable electrodermal activity sensor (EDA) scans and the promise that the device will be able to perform ECGs down the road. The other feature Fitbit’s raving about on the Charge 5 is its heart-health-focused features. To my mind, part of a Fitbit’s charm is not having to charge it more than once or twice a week, so I soon reverted to letting the display turn off after a few seconds. To do anything, you have to double-tap to wake it, but that doesn’t change anything on the screen, so it adds another step and is a little counterintuitive.Īssuming you set auto-wake to “on” to get around this and choose the always-on display, you then cut the average battery life from seven days to around two. Second, if you’ve got auto-wake turned off (the feature that wakes the device when you lift your wrist), it looks like the display is on when you look at it, but it isn’t. First, it’s pretty dim, even with the battery-sapping brightness (which it warns you about) cranked up. ![]() Craig Wilson / Inputįitbit’s also introduced an always-on option for the Charge 5, but it’s flawed. The display doesn’t stretch to the edges.
