How does this model compare feature-wise with the Ambit2 S that appears on the Suunto site? Is this an older model? The 2S is over $100 cheaper...

It isn´t an older model. The difference between the ambit 2S and the ambit 2 is that the ambit 2S has barometric features that the ambit 2S hasn´t. Also the battery of the ambit 2 last longer than the one of the ambit 2S. You also can compare the two of them in the suunto website.

Love it, regards to waiting you can put the camera in a multi snap mode that will take one shot right after another, battery lasts forever, bought an extra one almost never get to use it, haven't noticed or paid attention to resolution changes on zooming. I also have a Sony Cybershot, the Casio is my goto camera, Cybershot takes slightly better quality pictures when you have the time, but the battery can go dead just sitting around for a few weeks, Casio is always there and ready to go.

What you should consider first, is what sport do you do? If you are into triathlon this is an awesome watch, if you are going to compare with other garmin watches you should consider the 910xt instead the 620. Also the Fenix 2 can log Drills in the pool that neither the suunto or the 910xt can, but if you are not into swimming, it's useless for you. I have been using my Fenix 2, since march and I can't complain about anything, also garmin have been making a lot of firmware updates (some changes that users ask).

I purchased this for my wife about a year ago after each of us going thru 3 Garmins because they wouldn't take a charge. Not a single issue yet. I also switched out to a Timex (different model) and no issues with charging or corroding on that one either, and it is in year 2 of use. IMHO, they all use the same chipset and software for the GPS, so go with the company that has been making watches for the longest time.

Hey = so I found the fitbit a little more responsive during exercise. But the UP 24 will continue to update (just not as quite as real time). With running - depending on your speed the Up24 should recognize your your activity as running. I have to manually put in when I am hiking though.

Get the Garmin version. I originally bought the Suunto move stick and it lasted for a week. I replaced it with the Garmin and it's worked well ever since

I don't use the silly device. It is a total waste of money. Both the original model and now this one. Instead I'm using the 20 year old Casio B.O.S.S. It does a better job, it's a heck of a lot more useful. There are several offered on Ebay. They are all vintage machines but darn near indestructible. That's why so many are still around.

Kolin would love to hear what you think when you start using Aria. Noticed on the Amazon website that the Fitbit Ultra is now $155. I got a Fitbit Ultra for me and also my daughter. When I ordered it about a month ago it was $99 each. I noticed that they had a Fitbit for $87. I am assuming that the one for $87 is the first one (or old one). You said you had both. I was wanting to recommend it to a friend. Do you feel that there is much differene between Fitbit & Fitbit Ultra.

Hi, the SPX 7800BT is newer than the one I bought but if you ask me about mine, I would say it's fair. I see that in the new one they have the GPS built in instead the external USB. I would definitely go for the new one to be always up to date.

No! That's the beauty of Fitbit!!! Just put your info in & your good to go. I generally charge it up once a week so it is very easy to use. Happy walking/running!

Hi...it is probably best for you to call the polar phone number for the comparison. I was very disappointed in how many features the watches now have. I just wanted one that would measure heart rate and calories burned and a few additional features. But one of the two I trialled was over the top. Anyway, in my experience, the heart rate monitoring feature only works w a chest strap. I know there are products on the market that monitor in other ways but all the polar watches I have had require the chest strap. Hopefully any of that is helpful. The wait time on the phone is very long but the person who finally answered seemed knowledgeable so perhaps worth the wait.

It's cheaper since it's the latest offering from Casio and they're trying to encourage current owners to update and prospective buyers to get the model that looks more "current".In some Asian countries you can still find the FX-991MS selling for $30 USD, but any newer models are around the $20 mark. In case you were wondering, the natural textbook display can be turned off and the calculator operates exactly like the FX-991MS. I use all of my Casio units in non-textbook mode for speedy entry.

Being a former fitbit owner, I love, love, love this over the fitbit. It has sensors on the back and will track movement better (not sure about cycling) but I walked/ran a 5k a few weeks ago and it broke down the minutes I walked versus ran and gave stats on the sync. It is very accurate on the heart rate as I just had an cardio stress test and compared this at the doctor's office and it was right on (within 1 digit). I highly recommend this device and the features online to create "habits" to keep you motivated are fun too. I only wish it had an alarm to buzz you to remind you to do your habit....but overall for the $ it beats the fitbit hands down. Being a former fitbit owner, I love, love, love this over the fitbit.

I don't know about Kaossilator 1, it's out dated though and I love my Kaossilator 2. I played with it just yesterday for an hour and a half and I've had it for nearly a year and a half. I researched the first one thouroughly before I bought Kaos 2, there are many advantages. I think you'd be disappointed if you put your money toward the first generation. Get #2, you'll be amazed!!!

I've been using the original for a little over two years now. This is actually my second one (the first got accidentally put in the washing machine). I'm definitely looking at upgrading to the Ultra real soon and also getting one for my wife. I've also pre-ordered the Fitbit Aria Smart Scale that is due out in April. Check that item out on their website.

yep - i agree - i ALMOST ordered it last night...glad I didn't. even more interesting will be the price they'll have when it's offered by amazon direct - i am still trying to decide between the 765T and the 265 WT, which, by the way has become 7 bucks cheaper than last night !!!MediaHub - i feel like we will both end up with a good in-car nav - let's keep in touch here and try to make a good decision. www.gpsrmagazine.com has a great review/analysis of 265WT and 765T...

The One is the newest by Fitbit, they are no longer selling the Ultra. the ultra tracked steps/distance calories, stairs and sleep, the One is updated and includes goal setting and silent alarm. it has other nice features that weren't in the One.
