A360

I'm willing to stick with them because I still think their heart rate sensors have been a lifesaver from obesity and poor health. I used them for heart rate training (with HIIT) and ask anyone that knew me, they were amazed by my results. I don't run!!! I don't trust wrist sensors, I've found them to be glitchy and innaccurate. By doing heart rate training in 2011, I lost weight, built muscle and developed a healthier heart with the FT4 for a very budget friendly $60 (came with a chest sensor). Years later, the newer watches (I used A300) combined with their app tracking my long term activity and syncing with meal planning apps was the cherry on top, an excellent investment. I just feel like I'm an abandoned market segment because they want to appeal to smart watch users and people who want GPS... the gimmicky colour touchscreen watches have awful battery life. I tried the A360 but it wouldn't let me start a workout because most days it would say not enough battery life (I'd take off the watch and plug it into the wall during the workout and try to check it from a distance). I'm going to try a Polar Unite or Polar Pacer next, and I hope the investment will get me back to where I was with the A300. I noticed they were on sale today and it's closer to what I can afford.

I had the exact opposite experience, switched to a polar one and didn’t have any issues anymore

G-Shock Edit: Used to wear a Fitbit. Broke too many of them hitting my punching bag. The heartbreak tracker would stop working. Fitbit was great about sending me replacements. I got sick of it and bought a Polar heart rate monitor. So much more accurate anyway. I pair that with my iPhone. Whenever I’m not hitting the bag or tracking heart rate, I wear my G-Shock.
