NotebookcheckSep 2024
The 46mm stayed within 1-2 bpm of a Polar H10 chest strap on a ride and tracked about as well as a Garmin Venu 2, lasting almost 13 days; a stylish refresh with no big new features.

Expert ReviewsNov 2024
Measured against a Polar H10, heart rate was off by 6.6% on average, and distance by about 5% versus a Stryd foot pod, both worse than the GT 4; nice to own but not quite finished.

A good-value health and fitness watch with dual-band GPS, calls and music storage, fine for iPhone owners who don't need apps; no accuracy test reported.
