I bought the watch according to the dTest reviews and I don't regret it - for me it has probably the best price/performance ratio on the market. I have tried cycling, running, walking, swimming and sleeping with them and they handle everything perfectly. All activities can be tracked on both your phone and computer in a fairly sophisticated app, where all movement statistics are available, including GPS tracks (built right into the watch), heart rate, steps, etc. Somehow the app also estimates calories burned, stress index, body battery, VO2_max etc. The number of steps, distance covered and heart rate are measured very accurately in my opinion, a little bit with a question mark is the length of sleep, which in my opinion should be taken as an indication, because sometimes it cannot distinguish when I am asleep and when I am just lying down. Connect to your phone for calls, SMS messages, etc. I don't use it, so I don't rate it. You can download an app to the watch that lets you change the look of the face and a bunch of other things I haven't even discovered yet. So it occurs to me that the primary function of the watch - i.e. time display, event. timer, tracks and alarm - are actually a bit secondary in my watch.
Built-in GPS and very accurate measurement of location, number of steps, distance traveled, heart rate.
Smart mobile and desktop app to track all your stats (physical activity, steps, sleep, heart rate, stress index and more)
Option to set a different display appearance via the app
After wearing it for a few days straight, a rash appeared on my wrist
They don't have some of the additional features that more expensive watches have, such as. oximeter, temperature readings, payments. - I'd have to pay extra for those, but I wouldn't use them much
In normal use I have to charge them every 7 to 10 days, which is slightly more often than the announced "maximum endurance"
Sufficiently accurate GPS and wrist heart rate recording
Battery life around 5 hours with GPS on - OK for me, but probably not enough for ultramarathons
For me, the perfect watch for running and cycling, I don't need more features. There have been a few minor tweaks since the last version (Forerunner 45), but otherwise everything works much the same, i.e. Good.
GPS sometimes takes quite a long time to find the starting position
I' m a little disappointed with this watch, maybe I made the wrong choice. They have a lot of functions fine, but what really bothers me is the very insufficient brightness of the display even though I have it set to 100%
battery life, lots of features
Very weak display brightness even though it is set to 100%
Second experience with a Garmin watch. Again, they sit perfectly on the hand, they are not felt in any way. Compared to the previous fr35, they have soaked sports functions, I don' t even understand everything. Finally, they also have a stopwatch and a timer. The alarm clock can also be set from the application. But - the display is a tragedy, I can' t read anything, the colors are washed out, the font is tiny and lacks contrast, if they had kept the black and white display from the fr35 and the same font, great, the case is also 42 mm in diameter, but the display is only 25 mm. There are a lot of dials from the store, but two are usable, or paid for. The strap is short again, my wrist is 21 cm, the buckle is somewhere on the side of my hand plus the last hole, I don' t understand, I don' t have a big hand. otherwise it is of the 20 mm quick release type. I didn' t want to wear glasses because of the watch, I returned it, too bad, I really liked it.
Design, weight, great to wear, lots of running information
