Forerunner 620, the new smart health connected watch from Garmin, an effective solution for experienced runners or simply those who want to progress and have a hard training. But at what cost ?

At the cutting edge of technology

Besides telling the time, because it’s basically a watch, he’s a real coach. She has a sporty look, she smells like new plastic, she hangs the hairs, a real badass who tortures you, she is almost close to slapping you on the fingers, but if you are a racing fanatic on foot you will love it. Indeed it allows you to give your VO2 max (point culture : VO2 max is the amount maximum in oxygen that a subject can use through unit of time during a physical exercise at maximum power, for the average Man, it is 40 ml per min, per kilo, in the antelope it can go up to 300 ml / min / kg, you now understand why they run quickly dirty things) Thing that was only available exam medical in one laboratory, and rather expensive. Today the measurement of your MODERN VO2 looks like this:

She immortalizes so all the outputs on a map available then on the software on your computer (software GarminFit sold with) as well as all the data relating to the race that you will have configured beforehand. It also offers, directly in bluetooth connection with the smartphone via an application, to invite other people to follow your outings live sure their computer, useful especially for coaches, to make sure that you are doing your exercises well.

Shot in the foot

First of all its price: 400 € (369 euros at smart health connected-life.eu). A brake huge for consumers, even if the services offered by the watch are full and numerous, that it is sold with the software and the belt, it's a little too expensive just to find out where we went and how long we ran (there are of course other more useful data). And according to some users, there are some functions who are a little gadgets. Therefore many of features that overflow, too much information kills information. In addition, she is complicated to configure, you have to take it in hand before you can really get the best out of it.

In other words, it is intended for seasoned athletes, which is not yet my case. They should make a watch that counts how many times you hit the keys on your computer, counting the things you delete, start over, mouse clicks, in which case I would be a true Olympic champion.
