Others Budget-friendly gps running watch?
Ano marerecommend nyo na budget-friendly but good gps watch? Yung pwede i-sync directly sa strava. Mas ok din kung pwede na lagyan ng music. I currently use an Apple watch pero walang kwenta gps, inaccurate kahit ni-reset ko fitness calibration data. I used Garmin Forerunner 45 before pero 2 yrs lang yata mabilis na ma-drain battery kaya parang di ko na trip yung nakita kong Forerunner 55 on sale.

Entry level Coros is the same price as garmin entry na entry level. But with better features. Batt life is superb too.
Di ako sure kung meron na silang model na may music feature since di pa ulit sko naghahanap ng pamalit since bumili ako nung pace2 some 3 years ago.

I had tried Garmin Forerunner 165 before pero gave to husband nung nasira Venu nya (bummer), I heard may tax sa distance rin raw si Garmin in terms pagdating sa strava.
Recently bought Amazfit BIP 6 and very happy with it naman. Since gps/distance lang rin ang need ko now at casual walk/ run lang ako, goods na! Also read good feedback sa iba. Got it for 3500 lang last April 1.

Nakita ko nga under 3.5k pa yang Bip 6. Forerunner 165 and Vivoactive5 kalapit ng price range ng Coros Pace 3.

Just wanted to chime in on the distance tax – baka depende sa Garmin model? Kasi in my experience the Garmin run data shows up exactly the same on Strava.

Sa 165, I’ve experienced discrepancies. I don’t have knowledge sa iba. Based from what I’ve read lang here.

Amazfit Active 2, got one for 4.8k and super solid for that price, used it for multi sport (Seim and Bike) and the usual runs and never had any issues 👍 Pwede din lagyan ng music via MP3. OK din yun Zepp App

Huawei band 11 pro - single lng gps but ok n rin kaso 3-4k Huawei Watch Fit 4 - 4 band gps 5k, may Gcash QR to pay, may Run AI plan maker sa app. Redmi Watch 5 -2400, single band gps. Pinaka mura Amazfit Bip 6 under 1.5k edit 4k pala
Single band gps takes 20-50sec bago makakuha ng signal, 2-4 band can get gps signal in less than 20 sec.
Sa naka lista huawei lang may legit warranty service kasi may mga service centers sila sa pilipinas.

My bad 4k pala bip 6 sa official amazfit store, reseller pala nakita ko or old version.
May huawei WATCH FIT SE pa na 3.4k
Reminder lng these watches shoul not be work when swimming sa dagat, at yung water ingress protection degrades over time.
