Those Moving from MSBand - Sleep Question

Is it just me or is there a really huge difference in the results of sleep tracking?
I expected some, but first night of sleep with F5 recorded about three times what the Band2 had regularly recorded (over the last year) for "deep sleep."
I imagine it's calculated differently.

Same here. I get much more deep & light sleep than MS band 2. However, I believe the F5 is more accurate.

Thanks! Good to know I'm not completely crazy.

Yeah, apparently I'm a much deeper sleeper than I thought I was. I'm befuddled by the huge difference between my old Band 2 (RIP) and my Fenix 5x.

I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

Sleep tracking is really poor, despite me telling it that I sleep midnight to 7am it regularly decides I'm asleep before 10pm and doesn't even decide the time when I'm walking upstairs/cleaning teeth/getting undressed etc. as awake time. The deep/not deep you could fair enough say is just a different in definition compared to the band, but the band was so much better at recognising wake ups in the middle of sleep - and actually telling it you're going to sleep was just so much better, particularly as I read a long time in bed before sleeping even if it fixed the going to be recognition.

Sleep tracking certainly one of the big weakesses of the 5 for me.
