I assumed that the VS5 had the latest bluetooth technology installed - and now I am disappointed with the range.
I used my Forerunner 245 as an activity tracker for a long time because I was waiting for the VS5. The bluetooth range of my Forerunner 245 is much wider than that of my new VS5. Two walls between my smartphone (Bluetooth v5) and the VS5 - the connection is gone. With my Forerunner 245 I can go twice as far and even go to another floor.
Is the reception on the VS5 really that bad or is there something wrong with my hardware. Maybe a software issue?
What are your experiences?
