I haven't actually tested/measured, but mine seems pretty darn accurate. I can see which side of the street I was running on and whenn I cross
Great deal on a good watch. I think they may be clearing these out. Why? Two months or so back I looked at warranty exchanging my wife's with a dead battery. IIRC they wanted $100+ for the swap. Well, I check back last week and they wanted $0! I took it obviously and she has the reman watch on now.

This is advertised to have up to 7 days battery life but is that probably stretching it and in normal conditions, is it much less? For something with a mips screen, I would have thought the battery life to to be much more. Is this simply because this watch has old tech in it?
Are there any other good options at a similar price point for smart watches with a mips screen?
Was wondering if anyone knows how this Vivoactive 4S compares to the Garmin Venu Sq, which is listed at amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product...X0DER&th=1) for the same price of $150. At first glance to me, it looks like the Vivoactive 4S would be a better buy, but wondering if the Venu Sq has any advantages.
My Vivoactive 4 has been the best watch I've owned. Over 2 years old and still easily gets a week of battery life. That's with a few 5k runs in the week.
This 4s looks slightly smaller. Great watch for casual runners/cyclists and accurate. Good notification system with the ability for quick responses to texts.
Not interested in Samsungs 1-2 day battery life, and the new Vivoactive 5 may add a few features but also loses a few.

Now I'm curious, anyone else have any thoughts here? I'm between venu series and vivoactive
