It didn't work for me.

I wanted it primarily for wrist-based heart rate for cycling and skiing. The heart rate was flakey. Plus, the dial is hard to read. I bought the standard in grey, and I couldn't read the words over the buttons. I returned it after 3 days and wound up getting a Fenix 7S. I'm pleased with the Fenix.

Love It

Takes a bit to figure out the scheme for doing things but once you get that it is pretty straightforward. So much stuff it will / can do you need to limit what is enabled by what your goals are.
Notice some degree of difference in measured / calculated values from my old Vivo Active HR. I am hoping it is just newer, better technology.

So many features!
on December 30, 2022
Posted by: Peace
I have had this watch for about 2 weeks and I am really impressed with it's features. There are so many that it will take time to figure them all out. The couple I currently like the most is my heart rate monitor and my sleep monitor. I know have a pretty accurate idea of my hrs of sleep (because it monitors it).

Curious
on December 31, 2022
Posted by: Dave19225576
I enjoy the data it supplies, but curious to know how reliable it is and how to use it. The HR monitor seems to be very accurate. The Body Battery seems a little off some days. It will show my battery to very low, even when I wake up in the morning. I can’t seem to figure out what constitutes as stress when it shows stress while I’m sitting around and my battery is almost in free fall. I like the watch overall.

Instinct 2

I got this as a gift for Christmas and I am satisfied. I just can’t wait to put it to use during the Wildland Fire season. A little too many individual apps to download, but over all, impressive. I like it.
