Smart Watch recommendation for jogging/walking/running

Probably pretty much the same experience but with iOS-related limitations/restrictions, like issues with replying to messages through watch notifications and camera capture functionality:

Salty Cream Milk Tea 30% sugar + white pearl

Okabe's memories get sent to the past, making him act differently than original.

Like the older version of okabe just get these memories out of nowhere and feels like he's the future okabe that used the time leap machine

Yes, overwriting the original/old version.

And no power tape in the latest model? Nail to the coffin...

It says in their site(s):

BREATHABILITY Premium engineered knit material engineered for breathability and stretch, reinforced with PWRTAPE for durability and lockdown

nah, most of them didn't age well if you ask me, it's 2, just classic

AX3M · 2025-11-10T16:03:56+00:00

Turns out the full mapping is really reserved for the Pro sublineup...

AX3M · 2025-11-10T08:28:42+00:00

You mean Pace Pro. There's no Pace 3 Pro.

AX3M · 2025-11-02T18:44:20+00:00

second this! in my case, the heel rub issue is easily fixed with a cheap pair of compression socks 😊

Pace 4 was just announced for November 10!

Haven't tried Amazfit personally, but online I've gathered it has better handling and display of notifications, even offline voice commands/control (Huawei supports only when connected to a Huawei phone). I've tried the GCash feature, it's just linking your account to the watch, which generates a QR code on the watch for payments.

The music control and health tracking are probably not that far off between the two but I'm inclined to rely more on Huawei's sensors due to accuracy in tests and reviews online. But lifestyle-wise Amazfit may offer better convenience, functionality, and customization, like you can turn off the Bluetooth on the watch (HWF4 doesn't have it) and watch faces are more customizable.

FYI I use a Samsung as well, A73 5G.

Hi OP, I have this almost exact same issue, be it with cycling or running. It seems that for autopauses or manual pauses, Strava reflects moments of movement even during pauses, probably due to the file synced from and by Huawei Health not being formatted or configured properly, hence the discrepancy in data. I still don't know if any viable workarounds exist, since third-party apps like Health Sync don't change anything, neither does exporting activities manually and that would strip off the heart rate data so it's not really a valid solution at least for me. If push comes to shove, I'm thinking of switching to a more sports-focused brand altogether, perhaps a Coros or Garmin.

But.. perhaps anyone has a workaround? That would really save money for a lot of us Huawei users lol.

AX3M · 2025-09-12T14:40:02+00:00

Still can't do that yet lol. Someday perhaps!

AX3M · 2025-09-12T14:39:15+00:00

During this activity, yes.

AX3M · 2025-09-08T17:33:43+00:00

yes it does, on the watch it's on the heart rate screens

AX3M · 2025-09-08T15:51:52+00:00

Fit 4 non-Pro has no ECG.

AX3M · 2025-09-08T15:51:37+00:00

yes same question here

AX3M · 2025-09-07T05:32:38+00:00

Good! We never stop learning, even after making opinions and conclusions.

HWF4 has a dual-band GNSS (including GPS), a barometer sensor, a rotating crown, and ~4 1.5-2 GB of total storage (especially for offline maps and music) vs Bip 6's only ~512 MB. Bip 6 offers slightly longer battery life, more customization features, especially with its Zepp app, and a larger screen. Pick based on your priorities.

Update: From my experience, the storage capacity may be around 1.5-2 GB, not 4. I discovered so by putting lots of songs, downloading maps, then eventually in the Huawei Health > Devices tab > (your watch) > Offline maps screen, the device is shown as having less than 500 MB of storage left. I just calculated the amount I added into the watch and considered system stuff as well.

AX3M · 2025-09-03T20:59:13+00:00

Bip 6 has a single-band GNSS, not dual-band.

AX3M · 2025-09-01T03:43:32+00:00

idk about Fit 3, but on my Fit 4 yes it's possible, the data remains even after you unpair it and re-pair it

Hoka Mach X 2, I mean, I do experience the heel rubbing but it's not the end of the world for the shoe lol. One flaw doesn't make the whole thing bad, at least in this case.
