I had the original VA and updated from it. There really wasn't anything wrong with my old VA, I just wanted to upgrade to a slightly more feature rich watch. The new VA3 amazes me. It will do almost everything you need and more, from basic steps, floors and other tracking to built-in HRM. I have a chest strap so I don't use it all the time, but the convenience of not having to constantly tug on the HRM strap is nice. While features are important, battery life is perhaps the most important. The original VA ran great on battery so I was hoping the VA3 would be the same. Almost everything is out of the box, giving you step and movement alerts, text messages, and more that I don't need but others might want to add. I pretty much use it in a stripped down form until I hit the trail and ride, then turn on the various features I need while I'm out. This allows me to keep 3-4 days depending on the duration of the recorded activities. The other part of it compared to the old VA was the GPS + GLONASS option. This is another battery saver. This comes in handy when you're promoting marathons or ultra-long races, which are events you'll likely be promoting before 8-9am. In general very satisfied.
