"A good robovac is a life changer. Even a $350 basic S8. It is a great place to start. ... I promise you that you will not be disappointed by a basic S8. It will change your life even if it can't fit under every piece of furniture you own. ... My two S8s just finished vacuuming our entire house in about 46 minutes. ... While my floors were being cleaned, I sat comfortably on our patio in the cool shade with a slight breeze and composed my far too long response to you while sipping a diet soda and relaxing. ... I will have to spend about four minutes maintaining my two S8s. This will be my entire contribution to my home floor cleaning effort for today. Four minutes!"


"I got the Q5 Pro for $139. ... costs $450 less than what I paid for the S6 ... it is the best value option out there imo."


"Like 500$ these robots are currently the steal of the century ... You can get a mova p10 pro ultra (cannot remove its mops), equivalent to the l40/x40 for 500$ after a discount code"

"especially because of the battery life. ... The mouse I had right before this was the steelseries super light one, that was an every other day charge at minimum. Whereas this one is like once a week at most - and I work from home and game all night."


"offers significantly better battery life ... insane battery life"


"Oh, and the battery lasts days even when exercising a lot (weeks without excercise)."

"And IF I need to charge it's full in like 15 min or something? ... Also not tracking that, that's how fast"


"The charging is insanely fast making the battery situation even better."


"With my 3 charger the most it ever takes is just shy of an hour, about 58-59 mins, and that's from 0-100%. ... If there's even 5-10% already on the watch when I snap it on it'll take 40-45 mins. ... I know 15 mins doesn't sound like a lot, but I never have to charge more than an hour, and that's huge to me. ... It's the fastest charging watch"

"It also gets confused on sculling and some drills."


"it does not record drills correctly so I do not use it for that."

100%. I took both my Suunto Vertical and Coros Vertix 2 to Chamonix a couple of summers ago. Each run/hike I relied on maps & navigation more than any other feature. I started out with Coros, but after losing the trail a few times at crucial intersections, I swapped out for Suunto. It performed much better in that environment.

Garmin and Coros are the top of the industry for heart rate and fitness watches. Frankly Apple Watches aren’t even comparable. That being said there has been some research that shows heart rate wrist monitors on these watches aren’t accurate all the time. The new ones with the latest technology seem to be pretty damn accurate in my experience. If you’re interested in heart rate training I highly suggest a garmin or coros and then pair it with a chest monitor. You can get a chest monitor and pair it to your watch for like $75-150 bucks but like the watch it should last years. Smart watches are not BIFL IMO

The first and arguably best choice id recommend for anyone is the Garmin Instinct 2 (or the larger Instinct 2X), that’s about it, check it out and see what you think Yes it has smart notifications but you can fully turn off Bluetooth at the system level, and when you do, those notifications are completely gone just like many other models in the market, they’re not as intrusive as you think If you want something even simpler, check on the Suunto Core and if you want to go for something a bit more on the high end side, check on the Coros Vertix 2 which is a premium option but has an insane battery life, dual-band GPS and amazing performance over smart features. Funnily enough, I got both the Instinct 2 and the Coros Vertix which I alternate between but the Coros hits differ with the premium feel idk.

I love my Coros as a navigation tool.  My phone very rarely comes out for navigation now.

My Coros watch has amazing battery life. I went on vacation for 10 days and knew I'd be fine not charging it.

Coros is about half the price for the same features and its not a military contractor

I know I'm going to be the unpopular opinion here. I love my Coros but I've also tried Garmin and there's really not enough of a difference for me to recommend one over the other. I think it's whatever platform you're used to.

Yes, all the major fitness watches can integrate with Runna. I use Coros and the Runna workouts sync with my watch and when I finish a run it syncs the data back to Runna!
