VA4 Sensors Issues(?)

Former Member

Greetings
This is my first Garmin wearable so I'm getting a little confused here. Bought it 4 days ago set it up (software updates, phone pairing, account registration, etc) all working fine until yesterday I notice something a little off. It's the sensors. Compared my VA4 to my another wearable and some application my altitude in VA4 is off around 20~30ish Meters. Also the barometer is acting quiet weird? (number goes up and down constantly). Other sensor such as GPS is taking sometimes to acquire location (take around a minute) and I can't change my GPS setting either (Calibrate or change it to GPS+GLONASS or GPS+GALILEO). Tried to run in GYM, accidentally set RUN instead TREADMILL activities and the result shows the GPS track is awful (line bouncing everywhere).
I'm wondering is this hardware issues, just simply software bug or am I missing something here?
