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

I've had Suunto Race 2, Suunto Vertical 2, and Coros Apex 4 - unfortunately have not tried Coros' Amoled screens yet. Pace 4 will be MUCH lighter. The Coros app is the most polished of any I've tried (Garmin, Amazfit, Suunto, Coros). You will get better health metrics (more reliable sleep tracking,

So, the OHR is definitely better across all Polar devices, at least prior to Race 2 and Vertical 2. Did a run with a series of strides yesterday: Race connected to H10 on one hand, V3 on the other using its OHR. V3 matched Race beat-for-beat, and that's pretty much has been my experience over the ye

I just don't see any incentive to get this over a Suunto Vertical 2. I also think they need to rebrand and come up with better names. If I invest this much, and someone asks what I am wearing...I do not want to say the word Amazfit OR Cheetah LOL.

I'll just tackle a couple of these. I don't think anyone knows what's in store for new watches or software. I used to have a Vertical 1, and now own a Vertical 2. There is nothing I miss on the V1. I have my watch set to raise to wake, and I do a lot of trail running. I have no issues at all with th

You drop about 5% battery per day on the Vertical 2 and Race 2 when used in typical smartwatch mode. Give or take a few percentage points based on what settings you have, how often you use the watch, and battery differences between the two models. That battery drain works out pretty close to Suunto'

I used Garmin for 8 yrs, most of them re Instinct. My last device was Crossover Amoled. The physical hand broke so I sold it. I just bought Suunto Vertical 2 and here are my thougts. Vertical 2 screen is big and easy to read. The buid quality is superb. There are much less watch faces on Suunto and

I would beg to differ having used Garmin, Coros and currently using Vertical 2. Suunto is much deeper in analysis than Coros. Coros does nothing for trail or ultrarunning. Not even Climbpro or trail VO2 Max. Coros will only let you make one run and one trail run profile. On Suunto you can make endle

I’ve owned several Fenix models, from version 3 through 8. Overall, I’ve been satisfied with Garmin, but I’ve also been quite disappointed by the map latency and the lack of responsiveness when updating map orientation. Navigation is important to me, which is why I switched to the Vertical 2 about a
