    Got the 65s. Like it very much found I need to recalibrate the compass often as I often drive 200 km from the last place I used it. Getting used to Reset it before starting my next hike catches me out sometimes too. Slowly learning. Regards vk5cz ..

  • @christopher1800
    @christopher1800 4 дня назад

    One thing I noticed is that it performs poorly in a forest. It wasn’t even all that overgrown . Every time I had a clear view, I was standing still but the map was moving as if to recoordinate. I’m pretty sure that my previous gpsmap 66st did better. You may want to give it a try and comapre it to a different gps unit.

    • @cyclenorthumberland
      @cyclenorthumberland 3 дня назад

      When standing still with this type of Garmin with the default auto compass setting, it is not the GPS signal that aligns or moves the map orientation but the electronic compass , once you start moving over approx 2.5mph it is then the satellite signal that aligns the map orientation. I would re-calibrate the electronic compass by pressing the menu button once whilst on the compass screen and selecting calibrate compass and follow on screen instructions. Potentially a very weak GPS signal could make the device think that you are moving but I have not seen a GPS signal drop that low in the outdoors to make this device show me moving over 2.5mph. You could next time you are in a similar location add a current speed field to a databox and see if it shows you moving around a speed of over 2.5mph, hope this helps, also for a stronger satellite lock make sure in setup - system you have multi gnss and multi band duel frequency both turned on 🙂

    @northcountrygirl1980 13 дней назад

    This really is a deal breaker for me. I was close to buying an Apex 2 this week but yet another "change for change sake" by the Coros devs. Getting rid of the previous design with each metric in a box when displaying more data makes it harder to read. Larger, fonts lead to a more cramped screen and the design is visually jarring for neurodivergent people like myself

    Nice video. When you disable the always on mode on the Epix you will get 16 days and that’s not far ahead from the Fenix 7 which should get 18 days. I would always disable the always on display because it doesn’t make any sense because when you turn your wrist the screen will turn on anyway. The longest batterylife I have ever got on my Fenix 7 was 19days because I was ill and couldn’t train for a week and I always charge it when my alarm comes and then I would have two days left🙂.

    Fantastic. You may have just saved me from buying an Apple watch. UK resident. I do a bit of hiking and have a Garmin handheld GPS(62 I think it is) that has OS Survey maps. So it's won't show OS footpaths on moors, hills etc? If I am correct, I can plan a route on Garmin connect. I can then send that route to my handheld Or the Garmin Fenix 7? I understand the watch won't have OS maps :-( But it will give me a line/trail to follow? (Like my old hand held Garmin) Why no UK OS maps on a Garmin watch? :-(
