Garmin is bad. There are some people that have done lots of testing to examine how accurate the sensors/features are.
Apple Watch = best heart rate tracker
HUAWEI = 2nd best, so best for Android users
Fitbit = best sleep tracker
None of the fitness trackers are actually great at doing anything, but Garmins are not great at anything. Unfortunate if you live in USA HUAWEI isn’t really a choice. If you are going to buy a serious fitness tracker and care about the heart rate + step counter + O2 your only real choices are Apple Watch and huawei. If you want a sleep tracker it’s Fitbit. Almost everything else is bad enough in everything else that you won’t get an accurate measurement. People will cope because they wasted money on expensive fitness trackers which people said were good, but people who actually go and test them always come to the results that Apple Watch + HUAWEI are the only actually good ones.
Not worth it. Get a real watch.
>oh look at me I have a clock on my wrist sure hope someone will come up and ask me what time it is, because no one else has anyway to tell the time except for me
Good Info , thanks
Wrist based heart sensors are trash. You buy a watch for its gps accuracy where dedicated fitness trackers excell.
If you want a fashionable accessory you buy apple
For some of these things this can change overtime. As new firmware updates fix some issues and new models may have significant improvements. As I know with the Venu 2 it has an accurate heart rate tracker if you do an activity where your arm doesn’t move (like indoor bike training) but it’s horribly inaccurate as soon as you have some movement, like running outside.
Apples wrist band heart rate tracker has near 100% accuracy, huawei is close to 95% now. The brands past them are lucky to break 80% in many tests.
HUAWEI only achieved this with their newest GT3 watches before that they were in the low 80%. Many other fitness trackers are sub 70% (so completely worthless). GPS tracking isn’t worth that much money, your phone has a gps and you can use that instead in most cases.
Seethe brokefag. A good Rolex displays class, value, and eloquence
Huawei and apple watch may have the best HR tracking, but afaik Garmin has far and away the best app/features.
You obviously aren't active. Wrist sensors can't track well if you are doing any intense activity. That's the reason soccer players use chest straps for heart rate tracking and marathoners fitness watches for accurate distance measuring
> Oh wow look at me I have a hip fit bit so you know I work out even though I’m a fat piece of shit, sure it might provide 0 practical benefit to my workout but now you know I workout even though I’m obese
I use the Polar vantage V2. I like it.

Lots of people have tested this individually with all sorts of different activities. Apple Watch gives same results as a chest strap.
Another android fag seething.
Since you seem to know a thing or two about this kind of watches, how good or bad does the Garmin Instinct 2 Solar look? For me, it being solar-powered is indispensable.
>buys a hand clock
>keeps it in the box and not on hand
I guess that all those multimillionaire athletes with an army of professionals behind them didn't read this paper
How it looks? To me it looks fine.
However it’s heart rate tracker is decent compared to others. So very bad. Around 83% accuracy when not active falls into the 70% range when active. This is good compared to many other watches but overall not reliable. It’s gps tracking is good, it’s O2 seems to track decreases in O2 but by how much it doesn’t seem to be so accurate. It’s sleep tracking is worthless like every other fitness tracker (except Fitbit)
Alright, thanks, user.
You are retarded. Hmm let’s see you have the top standard in functional testing the chest strap which has been accurate for a long time, or you have a new device that only recently got similar accuracy. Of course professional athletes use a chest strap. But I guarantee you if you walk around with a chest strap everyone thinks you are a retarded faggot. The post isn’t about the best chest straps, it’s about the accuracy of fitness trackers. Apple Watch is accurate, it shows this in studies and lots of individual tests that it is super comparable to a chest strap. You made the claim it’s not accurate but you can’t back it up. Do you also buy overpriced preworkouts because your favorite pro athlete shills it?

I don't trust a faggot "research" over decades of use by professionals that care about results.
Post body.
>A 2018 study had found the Fitbit charge 2.0 consistently underestimated heart rate by 5.9 beats per minute
muh accuracy
yeah, cause that 6bpm makes such a difference. I guess I will hook myself up to ECG 24/7
