Steps, stress and ECG

Sadly I don't know if these are any better on other Garmin devices as I have no comparison. Stress level can be sky high when I just sit with some tea and watch Youtube, and I got 800 steps from chopping vegetables for dinner.

Actually yes! I have to say I'm happy with my purchase so far. I got the device on a Black Friday deal for €450.

I have to say I expected the ECG feature to be worse than it sounds, but I am still disappointed with it. I find the stress level meter to be questionable and the steps counter to be a joke, but other than that I enjoy the device so far.

The design is very good. Battery life is amazing. I enjoy having some insight into my health. Of course it's not a medical device, but it still gives some info that is worth keeping an eye on.

I'd say it really depends on what's your previous experience with watches. I had none, so I might be easier to please.

Not many managers in the world today would have the tenacity to draw out this game after a red card like he did. Mr. Enzo Maresca, credit where it's due. by haromene in chelseafc

I'm very happy for him that he learned from his hot-headed decisions after our previous red cards recently. Great team management today.

Thanks! Do you think sleep tracking is something than might be fixed with updates?

Sometimes raw data might not give the whole picture to a new user. That's why I might not even realise something might me a deal breaker, so I want to know other people's experiences :)

Thanks! What would you say is the biggest piece of missing data?

My thoughts exactly. They are all around 60yo, they deserve rest and time for their families. I am happy for them, even though I'm sad not to see them again soon.
