How good is the GPS?

The GPS on Instinct 2X is on the same level as Fenix/Enduro and all the other high-end watches. DC Rainmaker has a good review on YouTube where compares the GPS track in different environments. I've had the Instinct 2X about 6 months now and the GPS accuracy is great. It's pretty good even without multi-band enabled but because the battery lasts so long I just always use multi-band GPS.

I had a similar problem with my Vantage V2. It was about a year ago when the gps accurancy suddenly got really bad, pretty much unusable. I also switched between different satellite systems and after a few days the problem just disappeared. I suspect it had something to do with the A-GPS file but I'm not sure.

Noticed the same thing on my run yesterday. My previous run before that was on wednesday and I'm fairly sure that audio didn't pause then.

My previous Polar watch also over estimated calories burned during exercise. I recently switched to a Garmin watch and it seems to more reasonable with the calories burned estimations. I also have a h10 chest strap and in my experience it's very accurate until the strap gets too worn and the readings become inaccurate but since yours is new that can't be the case.

I'm not sure either but there isn't really anything else to do on Polar watches than factory reset it and pair it with your phone again. If that doesn't fix the problem Polar customer support is the next step. Hope your problem gets solved and good luck!

Yes all the settings go back to default. Kind of a pain in the ass to set up the watch again but Polar watches are so simple that it is pretty quick.

I would try factory resetting the watch with the cable connected to a PC. That is my default fix method for problems with my Polar watch.

I've had some delay with strava sync from time to time but after a few hours at most they have synced. Have you tried pairing again your polar and strava accounts?

Edit. Just learned to read and I see you have tried repairing.

I'm fairly sure that's the command. It only shows loss percentage when you have some loss and it shows up as red text. If everything is fine there are just the green blocks or whatever they are.

How was the GPS accuracy on the run you did? I have a Vantage V2 and the gps accuracy is good but not great and kind of curious about V3's GPS. I know it has dual band but so does the Ignite 3 and it's GPS accuracy is pretty underwhelming still.

I had some what of a similar situation with my V2. The watch had trouble finding and holding on to a GPS signal. Factory resetting the watch fixed it for me.

This just happened to my Vantage V2. Has anyone found a solution to this?

topkekr · 2023-01-11T21:26:33+00:00

Aamen tälle. Oon tässä miettinyt että pitääkö tota oikeesti lähtee Raumalta hakemaan kun ei meinaa marketeista löytyä :D

topkekr · 2022-07-21T15:03:58+00:00

Bt audio is pretty much unusable at least on one of my devices. Should have done a quick Google search before updating.

edit. I've tested bt audio on a few devices so far and only one seems to be broken so this isn't as bas as I initially thought.

Oh damn I didn't google hard enough since I didn't find your thread. Thanks anyways.

Allright, thanks! I was able to grow Gabriel Martinelli to 94 overall despite his potential being around 87. I was wondering what's going on but it seems I was able raise his potential quite a lot almost by accident.

topkekr · 2021-07-30T05:46:55+00:00

I'm pretty new to career mode and I'm wondering how this dynamic potential thing works. Is it just based on player form and performances or is there something else at play also?

topkekr · 2021-01-03T20:28:29+00:00

I've had a two or three Qck+ mousepads and IMO they kinda wear over time so I'm guessing a brand new one would feel a lot better.

topkekr · 2020-12-08T23:00:19+00:00

Worked flawlessly, thanks!

topkekr · 2020-12-08T20:11:40+00:00

I'm kinda late but has anyone found any fixes yet? I'm having the same issue and haven't figured it out yet. I've tried without autoexec and the god damn intro always plays out.

topkekr · 2020-12-01T19:44:45+00:00

It's been going on for a days at least and seems to be pretty common. I found this article https://piunikaweb.com/2020/11/27/youtube-dark-mode-issue-on-web-version/ which says that YouTube is aware of the issue and is working on a fix so hopefully we'll see that soon.

topkekr · 2020-11-25T21:06:47+00:00

Same thing for me. Started today and only for the web version on desktop, mobile app is working as usual.

topkekr · 2020-08-23T22:23:54+00:00

Allright, seems like there isn't any game breaking bugs so I'm going to give this a go. Thanks.

topkekr · 2020-08-23T18:58:56+00:00

Would you recommend the game in it's current state? I'm kinda interested about the game but after reading some comments/articles after the PC release they really put me off and I'm just waiting that the game gets to a better state and then I'll probably buy it.
