Tive um Amazfit 2a geração(2016), durou 1 ano e meio, comprei um Amazfit de 3a geração (2018) pro meu cunhado e durou mais. Em 2019 um grande amigo meu foi pra Inglaterra e pedi para entregar um Forerunner 245 Music, que custava 60% do preço aqui no BR. Resultado: 6 anos e funcionado muito bem com b

I do similar with a Garmin forerunner 245 music (music is the key bit), you can download Spotify playlists, though it is a lain in the butt pairing my headphones back and forth from watch to phone. The upshot is it has a long battery life if you're looking for something for more than just lab use

Aside from the RHR and HRV stuff in the other comment, I really like Coros' approach to load management as well. It's super simple - based on recent training load they give you a window to try to stay within for the current week to avoid under or over training. You can also map out future workouts a

Yes, I did the switch from a Garmin FR245 to Pace 4 a couple of weeks ago. The Coros app is much better than Garmin Connect. It’s the primary reason why I made the switch. Pros: quick and reliable syncing. Marathon plans. Many watch faces. Cons: Interface with other apps is somewhat limited. I’m usi

Edit: why not change the battery of your AW7? Shouldn’t be too expensive normally, and that may help you run the 15k distance without running out of battery. It should still be supported for a few years, so it won’t be obsolete immediately. The FR55,165 and 255 won’t receive any updates anymore, exc

For me, personally as someone who moved from Tomtom > FR245 > FR955, the FR955 is great for both my road running and trail running. It's a few models behind now, but with excellent battery life, MIPS display and sharp prices due to being older I would happily pick it up again (and am thinking of pic

These were pointed out to me recently and you're right it does solve my issue. I've just purchased new sports ear buds (Sony Linkbuds fit) and I'm really happy with them so it isn't ideal to purchase more. I've also not tried bone conduction so I am still sceptical, but would love to be proved wrong

Kjøpte Garmin Forerunner 245 Music eller noe sånt til en tusenlapp på Finn. Hatt den i mange år og bruker den fortsatt. Kjøp brukt!

I bought the forerunner 245 music from garmin like 4+ years ago and now i like it a lot more for tracking speed etc but the main reason i love it is that i can leave my phone at home and still have my music. For that alone i'm going to stick to watches for sure. Running with a phone was okay-ish whe

Been using Garmin Forerunner 245 Music for years even though i could upgrade to newer/higher models. Still works like new and has all the functionality you'd required other than maybe highly detailed GPS mapping (it still does turn by turn navigation) The newer 255 or 265 models well worth looking a
