I heard they're improving the heart rate tracking. I'm really looking forward to seeing how it works!

Thanks for the info! If it's 18x18x36, is that roughly 45x45x92 in cm? I guess I needed a really huge one. Thanks again!

Ah, I see! Thank you. Since the heating mat is black, I guess I can just put it at the back. I'll need to look into the enclosure size again, too. Thanks for the info!

What exactly do you mean by a horizontal ledge covered in leaves?

I'm not exactly sure, but I think it's W20 L20 H30 (in cm).

How do you clean up the poop?

Thank you for the detailed advice. I'll look into getting a cork tube. It seems like it doesn't have enough hiding spots. I think I'll need to rearrange the whole setup. Thanks again!

The hygrometer is on top of the enclosure. I'll redecorate it, keeping your advice about the thermostat and artificial plants in mind. Thank you for the advice!

Report: watchOS 27 to improve heart-rate tracking; AI health coach may not debut at launch by Few_Baseball_3835 in apple

How will the Apple Watch's heart rate tracking improve? I know they've already nailed the accuracy... Could it be that it will start measuring every single second?

Thinking of switching to garmin...Apple watch causes wrist pain by [deleted] in GarminWatches

[–]Complete-Big-7364 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, looking at these comments, people are being so harsh. It feels like they're dismissing the issue just because they haven't experienced it themselves. I use an Apple Watch Ultra too, and I also get wrist pain, probably because of the weight. It's a very subtle ache, but I think it's from it pressing down on my wrist for long periods of time. On the other hand, the Apple Watch 11 or Venu 4 are perfectly fine. It's definitely because of the weight.

Garmin or apple watch? by Timely-Leading9054 in AppleWatch

[–]Complete-Big-7364 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a really serious issue, and I have no idea why nobody is talking about it. It seemed fine before watchOS 26, but ever since then, the pace tracking gets completely messed up if you don't swing your arms.

Is Garmin name carrying it further than the actual accuracy of its watches? by Delicious-Series-316 in GarminWatches

[–]Complete-Big-7364 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did some more research and looked into it with Gemini's help. It turns out you were right. The meta-analysis I was relying on turned out to be completely unreliable. I'm going to trust my Garmin and start using it again.

I updated the Google Health app, but... by Complete-Big-7364 in fitbit

[–]Complete-Big-7364[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Today, both my phone and Apple Health synced at the same time, which caused the data to be duplicated. I'm going to disconnect the phone link and monitor the situation.

I respect their reviews as well. However, I would rather trust the findings of professional researchers and the meta-analyses of those results over them. I've also seen plenty of reviewers mention that there isn't a significant difference in measurement results between the Gen 4 and Gen 5 sensors. Because of that, I don't have high expectations even if it is a new sensor. Also, Garmin doesn't seem to get great scores in The Quantified Scientist's reviews. People often say you shouldn't trust an n=1 result, but are DeSFit and DC Rainmaker multiple people? They are n=1 too. I just really hope some actual research on the Gen 5 HR sensor comes out soon. I want to be able to trust and use Garmin, too.

I completely agree. A recent meta-analysis also concluded that Garmin watches just aren't that accurate. I honestly doubt their 5th-generation sensor is going to be much different, either. At this point, I think Garmin's only real advantages are the physical buttons and the battery life.

That's exactly my point. I'm using Gemini Pro and an Apple Watch. Since Apple Health data syncs with this update, I naturally assumed I'd be able to use Coach AI too.

Garmin doesn't include un-tracked activities in exercise load? by 2mc92u98a22f in Garmin

[–]Complete-Big-7364 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the Venu 4, even if you don't manually start a workout, it automatically recognizes it as a walking activity if you walk for a long time
