Hello @TheQuantifiedScientist Can you please make a review on Forerunner 265 or 265s preferrably I saw your review of 965 and 165 and saw a good deviation between the two Wondering how 265s would perform as it is in my bucket list Thank you!

I just want to say please don't stop reviewing Huawei watches, because there are only a few quality reviews about them because of the US ban. I bought the GT4 because of you and it's top quality. Also maybe you could start doing general reviews of watches with specs and overall feature, not only the scientific sports part, because you really are a good reviewer and you would be a top channel for this.

Great video, having music also is a huge plus, will probably end up buying the watch. Are you planning on review the samsung fit 3? I have a watch 6 and I'm thinking in getting the fit 3 as an lighter alternative (mainly to sleep)

I've already had the watch for 2 weeks and I love it, but I'm even happier after watching this haha

Hey would you be able to do a review on the ScanWatch 2. Thanks so much and btw your videos are awesome best in this category by far

This video helped my wife who runs marathons, half marathons & 5k's often decide on picking this over her current Amazfit GTS4. This looks to track here wayyyy better at an affordable level. I also realized in watching maybe 5-10 of your videos you must be in great cardio shape w/ all the cycling, biking, running to get these tests done hahaha. Great job on the videos.

This is next level attention to content. Good review, thanks!!!

Thanks for the videos Rob! Any chance you could see how the Withings ScanWatch 2 compares to their older models you reviewed?

This is gold. I appriciate you .

Thank you so much for doing these reviews! Although it would be amazing if you reviewed some Suunto watches as well 😊

Picked up the FR165 a few days ago, first time smart watch/Garmin owner. Gotta say I'm impressed so far! watch looks great and feels light and comfortable. Did a gym session with it and there is a minor delay in picking up increases in HR from time to time, but does eventually seem to catch up just fine. Yet to take it for a run but loving the level of customization with the watch. Thank you for your video, helped me make a good choice!

Hi Rob! I've noticed that the Withings watches now have many more updated features, any chance you would test them in the near future? Especially Withings ScanWatch2 :)

Can I expect a review of Suunto watches? Thank you for great review :D

Thanks for commenting!

I have the Huawei Fit 2 and purchased the new 165. I use them at the same time and they are quite similar in terms of GPS. When I sleep the 165 is better for me since Huawei accumulates my naps with my sleep. With heart rate monitoring they generally have a difference of 2-3 beat, nothing significant. The garmin plataform is excellent as well as its amoled screen, the Huawei price es pretty good as well as its battery life.

cool video! can you review the new galaxy fit 3?

Nice video. Wondering are you using R or Python for your data analysis? Not that it matters. Statistician in the market for my first sports watch.

Hi Rob. Any chance you could review the new Samsung Galaxy fit 3 tracker ? Thanks. Very good reviews by the way. I bought my Fitbit charge 5 after watching your videos and it exceeded my expectations until off course that infamous update.

Hey Rob! Please review the latest Huawei Band 9. You're the greatest in Smartwatch review on YT!

Hallo Rob, can you review more Xiaomi or Redmi watches? There are a lot of new ones... Just bought Huawei Band 9 somehow looks the same as the predecessor but hoping it really does have an upgrade since I got my Band 8 damaged... Thank you for your reviews they're very helpful

So many of Garmin's features are centered around HRV. What is the HRV accuracy like? Would it be the same as HR accuracy? Also, thanks so much for the work you do!

I bought it for size and low price, but if you're serious about sport you're probably better off paying 150$ more for the 265. There are often sales. The 165 is always going to be arbitrary crippled in software

thanks Rob! If you were to choose between 165, 965 and pace 3 what would it be?

How do you feel about the constant EMF exposure with all these wearables? I've been looking into the science and non-ionizing radiation, such as EMFs, are potentially unsafe over long periods of exposures.

Please review the OnePlus watch 2 🙏🏼😀

Could you please test mi band 8/pro for heart rate accuracy during running as well? I want a cheap but fairly accurate hr tracking. If it performs similar to garmin 165 would be interesting! And definitely a buy for me. Looking forward to your test 😅

Would you recommend this for a non runner? I'm just looking for accurate cardio measurement like indoor biking as well as calorie counting. Thanks

Hi, love your videos! Do you have any recommendations for a smartwatch for cycling? Maybe interesting for a seperate video! I now own the pixel watch 2 for heart rate accuracy, but the screen is so tiny while cycling you really can't see the information properly😂

Rob, do you have any recommendations on watches for pool swimming? Thanks!

0:55 you are absolutely right. If you sync the data to runalyze you can actually see what is hidden in the FIT file. As an example the Vivoactive 4 does not have Training effect or recovery time. But in runalyze both data is present. Garmin just chooses to hide it from the user to sell their more expensive watches...

Thanks for the amazing reviews. Tbh I am now even more confused to pick up the right choice (honestly most smartwatches look useless after your review). Watches which are good in sports tracking are lacking in sleep or some other important area. Your review on Garmin venu 3 was an eye opener. I earlier thought that garmin watches are far superior but apple seems to be the best in every area ! As an Android user, only pixel 2 looks the best overall but it doesn't look good at all.

This is what I waiting for

Can you use the Apple Watch on your ankle and get reliable data? I have a few, and it would be great to use one to capture lower body movement.

When is the galaxy Fit 3 review coming by ?

Do you also do smart rings? It would be nice if you could review the Ultrahuman Ring Air some time in the future.

He's done Oura a few times so I'd think it's only a matter of time.

I think the most important thing is to have the best accurate heart rate sensor than gps because as far as i know sleep tracking , running and all of the other features are being measured by HR. 3rd important thing is the software because i like when i do fitness garmin recognise which move i make (like bench press or barbell squat) this is amazing. Or apple recognises if i do rowing . Even though i like garmin eco system or app the most because of apple measures the most hr accuracy so that sleep tracking im being have to use apple watch

I think there is clarification needed. There are so many watches underperforming, or fairing literary bad. The Forerunner 165 here also. Is there a possibility of this being related to some physical condition of your wrist or arm? To be clear: I do not doubt your methods, or such.

Why is the heart rate measurement of Galaxy Watch 5 way better (see 6:30) than that of Galaxy Watch 5 Pro? Seems strange. EDIT: I actually watched a bit of your Galaxy Watch 5 Pro review and it also achieved >0.98 correlation coefficient for indoor cycling, the same as Galaxy Watch 5 so it seems like there is an error here.

Another smartwatch that can't track sleep properly. I'll stick with my Muse S, despite its weaknesses. Anyone know of a decebt affordable EEG sleep monitor?

1:00 I'm also annoyed by these artificial restrictions, but only really because the high end watches are ridiculously clunky, and I definitely don't want to wear these day to day.

I look for 3 things on a smartwatch: 1. Battery life of 10-14 days 2. Great sleep tracking (more than sports tracking) 3. Android (not an Apple user) It seems to me that my only option - to date - is something like the Garmin Venu 3 or the Garmin Fenix 7 Pro. I'm not looking to lock my own data behind a subscription (so no Oura ring, though I think it looks great). I want those things on a smartwatch form factor.

Daar wordt je toch hartstikke gek van, Garmin is zo goed met hun gps (duh, dat is hun forte), maar hun algoritmen voor de Hf en sleeptracking blijft mediocre. Ik zou er wat voor over hebben dat ze net zo go3d presteerden als de Apple apparaten, maar die moet je dan weer om de dag opladen. Waardeloos natuurlijk. Ik blijf kijken of er eentje aankomt die in de buurt van Apple. Is het niets dat je bv een baan neemt bij Garmin of een ander merk?
