"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"

"Oh, and the battery lasts days even when exercising a lot (weeks without excercise)."
"insane battery ... in the morning it's still not drained - and this is on a 6 year old set with worn out batteries. ... The case only needs charged once, maybe twice a month"
"Battery good enough to withstand long run in winter (AW tended to have problems in 30+ km runs in cold, not Garmin) ... Forerunner asks me if to go to power saving mode, when there are "just two days left" :)"

"It gives up quickly and does not map well. ... For example, first time out, it was unable to leave the kitchen. ... So it mapped the kitchen and a space outside the kitchen that it could see was called a room. But it was only able to see 30% of the actual room. ... It did not update the map as the dreame would each run. ... Sent out for a remap. Got the center room and failed to get the hallway that did not have a threshold to cross, got 20% of another room it could't get in and didn't place a wall where there was a wall."
"lost of navigation. ... When come out from the dock station, it somehow lost direction. ... Had to reset it and remap again. ... Almost do it 3 time a weeks. ... lost of connection"
"the bot frequently and randomly loses the map so you have to babysit it as you help it remap, and you have to redraw all the virtual boundaries."

"my Coros doesn't seem to understand that kick sets exist."
"It also gets confused on sculling and some drills."
"it does not record drills correctly so I do not use it for that."
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
r/BuyItForLife • What's the best smart watch to get accurate heart and oxygen rates? ->I love my Coros as a navigation tool. My phone very rarely comes out for navigation now.
r/Ultralight • So many new watches. Which watch is best for backpacking? ->My Coros watch has amazing battery life. I went on vacation for 10 days and knew I'd be fine not charging it.
r/smartwatch • Best smartwatch with decent battery life ->I have a Coros watch. The batteries last forever.
r/Swimming • How do you record your swims? ->Coros is about half the price for the same features and its not a military contractor…
r/trailrunning • GPS Watch suggestions ->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.
r/Coros • Best Fitness Watch for me: Garmin or Coros? ->Decathlon gps900, best value Coros watch. GPS is accurate, app is great the bartery life still out lasts most watches on the market. Unless you want the very best tech, this watch is perfect.
r/trailrunning • what fitness watch you all using? ->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!
r/runna • This app is so good (+ some advice on running watches?) ->I used the Coros Vertix 2S for mine in November and it still had 67% of battery life left on all gps systems on. Gpx files are easy to import and work well on the watch. I also love the Coros app.
r/Ultramarathon • Best watch for 100 miler? ->I never regretted buying a Coros watch.
r/trailrunning • Please, recommend a watch. ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
