We bought my wife a VA4s. (I am the techy husband so I am setting stuff up and testing things out)
I have already found 2 things that annoy me: (even though we've had the watch for like 24 hours only)
1. When you pause an activity, you can save or discard it. So far OK. But if you do not react, it will be autosaved after about 5 minutes. This sucks. What if you do a bike daytrip, stop to eat? Recording will be stopped. Boom. (Maybe autopause will help this but sometimes that can be annoying too)
Also related to this, other watches have the Save for later option - not happy to see the VA4 does not have it
2. No HIKE by default. Furthermore, if you create a new sport (let's say by copying one of the existing ones) you can call it RUN(2) or Trail run BUT you cannot rename it to whatever you want.
How crazy is this? If I copy walk it offers to call the copy Dog Walk LOL. How come they could not fit Hike as one of the default sports?
Other than that (and some battery drain I read about) this is a great watch right between the hardcore sport watch and daily wear.
