only treadmill so far, thats an old video i saw one where it looked fine for gps, since it just got released here and i was waiting on alexa integration, they seem to fix things with OTA updates, so i'm not worried.
besides wouldn't the gps be tracking w/ my phone anyways? i really don't see a time i would go out w/o my phone.

Hmm. Phone in pocket when I bike, so need that gps in the watch. Considering ordering one, stainless with leather strap, once it’s available in eurocuckistan. Keep us posted, Sir

Fun and giggles. Try to put your testing hand in cold water for 2 mins, then quickly dry and then test saturation. If I had a dollar for every primary care worker who don’t know that cold hands = low perfusion -> low sat I’d be a trillionaire. 50% of ptt I see are gomers who don’t drink enough, low perfusion, zomg it’s corona, must dial 911.i have one of these
i bought it for covid, in case
the gtr2 and apple watch6(my wifes) were in +/- 2%

you have to add alexa (amazon) account for it to be active, at this time its still not enabled, waiting on patch
the native voice commands for the watch are there, i.e. "open workout"

Tested that gps more? Asking specifically because the gtr 1 gps was atrocious. Debating whether to get the gtr2 or the Garmin vivoactive 4 from 2019. 100 freedom bucks difference here (garmin is expenive for some reason).
EDIT: ordered the gtr2, will see how it goes. Cheers.

Wyze with real spo2, heart rate, sleep tracking and apps with a 9 day battery life is only $18+ shipping preorder right now.
If it works 75% of the time it'll be better than $200 fitbits by default. Fitbit promised spo2 for years and when they finally added it it was just sleeping only and even then wouldn't give you a percentage you could really use which is sad as fuck given it has the same finger wavelength sensor the $10 spo2 finger readers have.
Fitbit and Samsung COULD allow you to see that reading but they took the feature out of the Samsung watches last year with a host of other things so they could add them back in even more expensive and newer models.
I'll try the wyze in Feb or so, what's $20. I just wouldn't be shocked if it was either not working right or on the other end, works better than $200 "fit" watches that have been bending over consumers and lying for years.

Already smeared my grease on it. will see how it faires. cant wear at work obviously. but looking forwardto testing it. thanks,Lanx -)
yea i've been cleaning around the house, i've knocked it around a lot of places (even inside computer cases) no scratches, it's really holding up.
