    Overall I prefer this to my Apple Watch when it comes to running. It takes some learning switching from apple but I do love the data and the more granular approach you can take when it comes to your running training.

    Nice screen and durable. Only compromise is the watch band did give me rashes on my forearm. I also do feel the optical heart rate sticking out a little too much where it gets uncomfortable to wear sometimes.

    Not as intuitive as I was hoping it to be. I was promised that it would sync to my Apple Health and Fitness Apps to help me keep track of my activity, to no avail. Currently have it up for sale on eBay.
