What app/device do you use to track yourself on a marathon/long race? Strava was not accurate on my last race.

Strava is an app, not a device. Your phone determines your gps accuracy to the largest extent. Some phones really suck. If you're going to run on the road, get a dedicated device like a garmin, suunto, polar or coros watch. Running in cities with gps sucks. Tall buildings = dodgy signal. Better off

Runners should already check Coros instead of Amazfit

The Coros Pace series build quality isn't great. They're all-plastic watches, normal glass screen. The base Pace 4 also has only a 1.2" screen (same as the Garmin 165, which is also a cheap plastic build). The Active 3 seems to be targeted as Amazfit's entry level running watch has better build qual

Amazfit makes it official Cheetah 2 Pro

For that price, I'd buy a Suunto Race 2 or a Coros Apex 4. Not this thing

Anyone ditch Amazfit for Garmin, Coros, or Suunto regret it, and actually switch back?

Lifelong runner and Garmin user since the original Forerunner 201, with numerous devices from a few brands along the way and now with a Balance 2. I have little reason to consider another brand at this point. Amazfit has fixed or added most of the important things for me as a runner. Sure Garmin has

Finally!

449 Euro in Deutschland. Kein gutes Angebot. Dann lieber eine Suunto Race 2, Polar oder Garmin. Alle haben für den ähnlichen Preis ein viel besseres Ökosystem

Running isn’t fun anymore, it’s consumerism and external gratification

Stop giving a shit what other people are doing and just run dude. You say you got into running for yourself but sure seems like you're the problem with your view on running. I don't follow influencers, I upload to my suunto app for stats which links to strava but I don't follow anyone and I don't ta

Froze mid run

I use race 2 since 4 months. I had 3 restarts during 2 long runs in training and worse, one during my race. During the training it's unfortunate but I can live with it. During my race, I'm only missing 500 meters of 23km because I had the chance to check my watch relatively soon after the bug. I was

Other than being beautiful, what does Suunto do better than others?

Couldn’t have said it better myself. Been a Suunto fanboy since my Ambit 3 Sport many years ago. They are just streamlined, solid, reliable tanks. Have a Race 2 currently and am just blown away every day with its battery, build and overall performance!
