Looking for advice on new Amazfit wearable
Posted: 30 Nov 2023, 13:07
Hi All! New member here. I'm looking to purchase a new Amazfit and the following criteria are important to me:
Must track these sports: cross country skiing, snowshoeing, hiking, mountain biking.
Must link/sync to Strava
Not too bulky
Decent battery life when using GPS
I have the GTS 4 mini and after a few hikes I've discovered it doesn't track my distance very well. Apparently it does not factor elevation changes or slopes during the hike as it only uses the plane distance based on the GPS satellites . On a short hike of about 4 km, the watch recorded about 3.2 km.
I'm looking for something to better track my movements while taking slope into consideration as I live in a hilly or mountainous region.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!!
