Suunto Race S Long Term Review
I came from a Polar Pace Pro to Suunto in August last year. Polar forum was very pissed when I wrote a goodbye review about the old watch mentioning how the features offered didn't match the price for an otherwise decent watch...they actually were pretty hostile about it. Whatever. My experience wit

Pomoć oko odabira Garmin sata i tenisica za trčanje
Slažem se s ranijim komentarom da ti ne treba nijedan sad da počneš. Pouch za mobitel je 6-7 eura Max i dobar je početak, pogotovo ako planiraš i uz sat nositi telefon na trčanje. Ako si baš odlučna oko sata i oko toga da bude Garmin, apsolutno ti ne treba ništa više od FR165. Ja bih ti samo preporu

Amazfit Balance vs Garmin Venu3
Personally I would go for the Garmin between these two. The original Balance uses Amazfit's older sensor array which wasn't that accurate or great. Is there a reason why you won't consider the Balance 2? Also, look at the newly released Garmin Forerunner 170.

Whoop vs. Forerunner 170
I went from Whoop to Garmin FR 170 also. I can understand your frustration. I switched because I was not convinced whoop is worth the steep cost for what I wanted out of a device. I swim, run, lift, and a few other activities. IMO, the FR 170 is far more useful for training. Yes, whoop UX is more po

Need help picking my first cycling computer
Consider the Garmin Ecosystem if you want to expand your fitness activities later. I've tried quite a few of them but as soon as I expanded into rucking , running and needed a forerunner 170, Garmin Connect website that is able to tie in your load / activities from your cycling and running activitie

Laufuhr
Als Multisportuhr habe ich die Garmin Vivoactive 5 Music. Glaube mittlerweile gibt es ein 6er Modell, das leicht verbessert wurde. Das wäre eine Option für dich. Wenn du primär läufst, wäre aktuell die Forerunner 170 Music sehr gut geeignet. Es ist ein Einsteigermodell laut Garmin, aber es hat dick

What’s the most accurate watch for pace and distance? I don’t care about heart rate and other health stuff.
May I know which watch did you end up? I'm currently looking at Pace 4 and Garmin FR 170 but these insights of yours makes me lean towards FR 170 more.

Upgrading to a Pixel 10 or 11 Pro Fold in October
I just got myself a Garmin Forerunner 170 and it is superior to my PW in every way tbh, 10 day battery life and in depth health analysis swayed me.

What watch should I get
If you surely want a watch then the Garmin Forerunner 170 is priced at 270, but can come to 200 during sale. Or you can go for the amazfit helio strap although the helio 2.0 is gonna launch soon or you can go with the fit bit air. These are options for faceless bands/straps if thats your thing. Dont

What's your biggest fashion ick you just can't seem to break?
I just upgraded my Garmin and went from a turquoise forerunner 55 to a black forerunner 170 so that when I wear formal clothes it’s not so obvious…
