Review on Samsung Gear Sport Wi-Fi NFC Smartwatch, black by Bhavin Seth ᠌

Bought Gear Sport to replace Gear Fit2. Therefore, I can only compare with them. The purpose of owning this device is primarily for autonomous control over training (without a connection to the phone), other chips such as the player, weather, altimeter, notifications and answers, contactless payment and all sorts of widgets were welcome, but still were secondary. The conclusion is that, despite their name, they are not suitable for sports due to a completely stupid heart rate monitor. And judging by the reviews on the forums, not only in the 2022, this is a massive problem. The pulse is measured correctly only at rest. With active exercises, even when walking, it is greatly overestimated and often shows dashes at all, you can resume work by restarting the workout, but then problems again. I don’t pretend to be metrologically accurate, but when, with a completely light morning jog at a neighboring entrance, it immediately shows 160 beats / min, and after another 50 meters it’s already 188, despite the fact that breathing hasn’t even quickened yet. This is a fiasco Tightening the strap, shifting along the arm, transferring to the right hand does not help. Obviously some kind of software bug in the algorithm. Contacting Samsung support and the official SC was in vain. They conclude that the function of the heart rate monitor is working, and the manufacturer did not promise any error. Short toy. In Gear Fit2, there was no problem with the heart rate monitor, everything showed adequately. There were problems with GPS, sometimes I caught geolocation for a very long time, despite the fact that I ran in the same place without long breaks
