Hello, I sincerely loved the video, it takes a lot of effort and dedication, you have earned my subscription. I have the GTR2 and I was able to compare it to a medical grade EKG, and the measurement was very good in anaerobic ranges, but at VO2 max the measurement is about 6BPM below the real one. I assume it is a software problem that has already been fixed. Greetings from Argentina

I'm looking forward to your analysis of the Amazfit Neo. The GTR 2 uses a Huami-made sensor, but the Neo uses an older sensor (which does not include SP02, VO2max or HRV). I wonder whether the inaccuracies are caused by the new sensor in the GTR 2 or whether inaccuracies are also present in the Neo. If problems in one and not the other, then probably a sensor issue, but if problems in both then it could be either the sensor or the software causing problems.

Biotracker2 is definitely capable of an accurate tracking see WesKnows jul. 9th video]. It could, and should, get better through updates though as zepp health gathers more data from users.

@tzeimet Жыл бұрын
It's slightly better with the update. In this case I don't think it's the fault of the sensor, but rather the algorithm trying to filter out the true HR and any bad measurements. The watch essentially does not register HR which it thinks are anomalous e.g. if you're heart rate jumps up quickly, the watch is likely to register a lower value because the algorithm thinks it's a bad measurement, so sometimes it will register 80 instead of 160 bpm.

I bought this watch as a present for myself at Christmas since the cheap amazfit BIP S did quite well. I couldn't believe that it didn't work for me at all. I thought I must have a faulty unit since why should the more expensive gtr2 be a lot worse than the 60 Euro BIP S? Well I returned it and seeing this video it seems like it's just garbage. Such a shame, could have been a nice watch. The watch that I'm most interested now is the oneplus watch. I'm using the garmin vivomove luxe at the moment and it's 'ok', but something with more than 3 days Battery life that looks good and works well enough would be a reason to switch. Since amazfit is out of the game, apple and samsung don't even get 3 days - the oneplus watch could be the one.

When HR trackers are this adamantly stuck at heart rates in the 75-100 BPM region while cycling I always suspect that they pick up your pedalling cadence over the heart rate. As in, pedalling causes your whole body to wobble slightly, up into the wrists, where the optical HR sensor picks up sine-like changes in brightness from periodical flexion to support your wobbling upper body... Or maybe I'm reading too much into it and it's just really bad & mostly guessing :)
