  • Bigger display, Multisport mode, Intuitive app, Week-long battery life
  • Inaccurate distance tracking, No pause function, Not waterproof
  • More times than not, the Verge score is based on the average of the subscores below. However, since this is a non-weighted average, we reserve the right to tweak the overall score if we feel it doesn't reflect our overall assessment and price of the produ...

  • Larger display shows more information so you don't have to open the app as often, Interchangeable bands let the more fashion-conscious among us switch things up, Accurate SmartTrack auto-monitoring of exercises
  • Only supports connected GPS, so keep your phone with you if you need maps, Cardio fitness score is only an estimate of VO2 max and is arguably limited in its usefulness, Smartphone notifications are limited compared to other similarly priced devices
