Sobre a Garmin
Putz, pessoal....eu estou começando a praticar corridas e fiz uma breve análise nos relógios da Garmin. Fiquei perplexo! O topo da linha Forerunner (970, certo?) está custando a partir de R$ 6000 em lojas mais confiáveis (centauro, garmin store, etc). Eu sou engenheiro eletrônico, tendo atuado com p

Like the look of the Vertical 2 but is the software really that bad ?
Currently have a forerunner 970 and really tempted by the vertical 2 just love the look of this watch, but reading data not correlating and other software issues is this really that bad ?

New to Coros Pace Pro Family
Hello all,
I had the Garmin Forerunner 265, but then I upgraded to the Forerunner 970. I had the Forerunner 970 for about 3 weeks, and I realized it wasn’t really for me. I didn’t need all the fancy features. I just run, and I need a watch that’s simple and easy to use. So, I switched to the Pac

Runna w/Garmin
I am so close and on the verge of getting a Garmin Forerunner 970 - but I have always been an Apple user. Currently have an Ultra Watch 2. I don't really use the watch except for workouts and running. I started running seriously in January and I don't see myself slowing down with it for a long time.

Forerunner 970 blurring the lines with Fenix 8
so, this just dropped:

$750 price tag ($150 more than the 965) with an Elevate5 sensor, speaker/mic, flashlight and first ever Sapphire lens for the Forerunner series.
to be fully honest, this is the Forerunner I grew impatient of

Suunto vs Garmin
I’ve had a fitbit Versa 3 for quite a while and it’s recently died and I’m looking into upgrading for a watch that can do a bit more. I’ve been getting lost in all the extra little features that I probably won’t use to the full extent and need help picking one out. I had the Garmin Forerunner 970 in

Trying to decide between Race 2 and Coros Pace Pro
I’ve had my Garmin Forerunner 745 for almost 5 years and the battery is starting to struggle, so I’m looking to upgrade soon. My top contenders are the Suunto Race 2 and the Coros Pace Pro. (Maybe a Forerunner 970 if I can find a good discount.)
I care most about **software quality and long-term su

Race 2 Or Forerunner 970?
In short I'm looking for a sports watch with good battery life, good stats tracking and if possible gives you good advice depending on the stats. I really like the Race 2 but other than the better battery life it just seems to be a bit worse in every other aspect (hence the cheaper price). So is it

Stryd/Forerunner 970(?) problem...
Hi! I have a stryd (next gen) and I am using it with my Garmin forerunner 970. Once in a while the stryd data field "crashes", freezing up unless I restart the activity. Pause and resume doesn't help, nor does switching to a different screen.
The pod is still recording and I can get the data later

Smartwatch for running
What smartwatch would you guys recommend for running? I'm running for two months and I'm looking for a good watch to track my workout. I was thinking about Garmin forerunner 970, Fenix 8 or maybe I just wait for Apple Watch Ultra 3. My biggest concern about Garmin is the OS due to a lot of people
