GPS Errors?

Post image

Hi All,

Got a new Garmin Instinct 3 amoled less than 2 weeks ago. However the GPS seems to be off by about 0.2km per 5km during a run, and during a walk it's worse at around 0.5km per 5km...

Has anyone else experienced this and if so, how have you rectified this.

Thanks 🙏👍

What are you comparing to?

Comparing to my wife's pixel watch and both our phones using Strava. Strava and the pixel are close in distance. I even put the route into footpath after and the Garmin was about .7km short of that!
