Hey guys!
Actually, a have a fitbit charge 3, but I would like to change for the Vivoactive 3 since I want the GPS . Before changing, I have a few quetions.
1. I like to go hiking and the problem I have witth the Fitbit is that if I use my hiking sticks, the distance recorded by my watch is unaccurate (I think that the distance calculation is base on my arms movement. With the sticks, my arms don't move the same way). Will I have the same problem or I'll be fine since I have the GPS in the watch ?
2. I want a watch with GPS for when I go hiking. My Fitbit was ok, but if I want to record the path, my watch needs to be connected to my phone to use its GPS which drain all my battery before i''m back to my car. WIth the Vivoactive 3, will it record the path ? Or can I download a map? How is the hiking app ?
3. Am I able to CONTROL my music of my phone from my watch ? I don't find it necessary to pay more to have music on my watch since I always have my phone with me, but it could be nice to be able to change the song directly from my watch !
4. How's the battery life after a year or more ? Does anyone had major problems? Is it a good watch ?
Thanks
