      @@TheQuantifiedScientist Actually using the Apple Watch, Oura ring and Inspire 2 in combination, a bit overkill 😂 - I find the Oura actually estimates my readiness level the best, the Apple Watch has the most accurate data but pretty poor presentation of it and difficult to draw actionable conclusions - it's also sometimes hit and miss, sometimes it detects 12 hours of sleep for no apparent reason - and Fitbit to avoid FOMO and it presents data nicely.

      @@DigiDriftZone Dude that's awesome you have all three! I have the inspire 2 it's great but I wear my Tic Watch pro 3 I love having Google pay and being able to call text, control smart devices, set timers and stop watches, ask it questions it's not that reliable based on Rob's testing though I wish there was something on Android with super reliable health tracking that also has Wear OS and doesn't cost a bunch of has a subscription. Cause Huawei doesn't support play services as far as I know. And I know how accurate that gt runner is thanks to Rob!

    Hopefully you will be able to review the polar ignite 3 as it falls into the same category as the versa 4/ sense 2 or Garmin venu 2 plus. Shame it would seem with your testing the Fitbit range has actually taken a step back under Google. Great video as always.

VERY GOOD PRRATICAL ideal. Was wondering if you would look into digital scale, like mi scale 2, I have one, but always wondering how accurate the date is. Only thing I'm very convinced is the estimate BODY AGE, as its 10 years younger erhmmmmm

      Just seen the video really enjoyed it Rob, having never owned a smartwatch before I’ve spent the past few days reading reviews etc, currently own an iPhone 11 so the obvious answer would be the Apple Se 2022 but battery seems a problem. Did look at Amazefit but obviously they didn’t perform well in the test. I’m mainly just interested in recording steps checking my blood pressure etc and sleep.

    Do you have any idea why the heart rate from fitbit went "downhill" after you tested the inspire 2? I have a Versa Lite and I'm looking to get a polar H10 or H7. Do you happen to know if there are differences of accuracy between the H7 and H10?

I would love a review of all the Wear OS watches if there are any you would recommend!

  • @liyahnicolette

    I recently exchanged my Versa 4 for the Versa 2 due to how consistently inaccurate the hr monitor was. It was almost always 30-50 bpm lower than what my Charge would detect. I could feel my heart practically beating out of my chest but the watch would say 119.
    After doing some digging, I found this is an issue with the Versa 4 and Sense 2 due to their new hr detection “upgrade.”
    I know that sports watches are never perfectly accurate, but I’d like to be as close as possible (while being brand loyal lol) and the Versa 4 just wasn’t cutting it.

    My uncle gave the versa 4 as a gift for my birthday and it does everything well except for the gps when going out. For some reason when I have not used the gps for a few days it simply does not want to connect and even when it does it is extremely inacurate, even in the open.

    Obviously not the primary concern on this channel, but the Versa 4 removing music control/spotify 3rd party means basically the watch is dead in the water to me regardless of how good the tracking is. Sad considering the beautiful the watch is, and how the Versa 3 had that functionality.

    Important detail - best ones,but not expensive,I know that apple 8 or gt3 pro would be good choice ,but is there something more convenient,that doesnt require taking a lone from the bank...:)

    @mik272727 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's kind of strange you assume Polar is correct when it drops your heart rate from 100 to 70 randomly and then back up to 100... And that's the reason the versa 4 is inaccurate? Isn't that showing your polar monitor might have slipped off or isn't that accurate?

    I have a stupid question, since I'm not very familiar with the subject: don't you have to calibrate the heart rate monitor from Polar that you use as a reference device from time to time? I mean, the police also have to calibrate their alcohol meters from time to time, so that they always give the exact values, or don't you have to do that with the heart rate monitors?
