    The biggest difference is that the GTS runs an amoled display whereas the S is a *transflective* LCD display, which is why it has such good battery life yet can stay on for a week of heavy use.

  • @julskechap
    @julskechap Před 3 lety +5

    What I love about my bip is that the transflective screen allows for longer battery standby time. I like this because i and don't see my self charging a watch every day or even ever week.
    I wish they continue to update the bip and release a version with newer tech inside like oxygen and blood pressure tracking and day time sleep tracking.

    I wish the GTS had been out when I got my Apple Watch or I may have bought that instead. I had the Bip before and liked the battery life but finally gave into the vanity of wanting something with an OLED screen.

    The question is: which one is more accurate and consistent... That's more important than screen quality as we aren't going to watch any media content on it... Yes battery is a major point and so is the sunlight visibility.

    • @donavonhornbeck
      @donavonhornbeck  Před 4 lety +9

      I mentioned in the video that both have been consistent in terms of GPS and heart rate. Both are always within .01 of a mile for each mile in comparison to other GPS watches I’ve tested them with (mostly my Apple Watch Series 5).

    Does the bip S give an pace notification at every mile when running. I recently got the Garmin insinct solar and that's the only thing I really want on my watch. The watch is to big for me as an all day watch. I'm considering either the Fenix S or the forerunner. I have to have a bear minium of at least a week battery life using gps right under 20 hours a week.

      It does give you a vibration at a interval that you set (you can set it at every mile, or every KM, or even every 5K if you want). The Bip S does not give a sound notification like my Garmin watches do though, just a vibration (which is pretty easy to notice though).

    Did you find a difference in GPS speed? GTS is supposed to locate too slow. And did you try sleep tracking on BIP S?

    • @donavonhornbeck
      @donavonhornbeck  Před 4 lety +1

      The sleep tracking on both has been incredibly accurate (both recognize when I wake up in the middle of the night and then go back to sleep). As for GPS, the GTS is slower than my Apple Watch at getting a signal, but it always has signal within 30 seconds, and it’s typically closer to 15 seconds (the Bip S takes about the same amount of time as well).

    I bought my business partner the GTS last Christmas and he had so many problems with it paired with his Galaxy S9. Bluetooth would randomly disconnect, watch would randomly turn off & sensor accuracy issues. He ended up going back to his old Garmin until I bought him an Honor Watch Magic 2 - 46mm since I have 4 Huawei/Honor watches and their build quality and extremely accurate sensors just can't be beat. His Honor watch was the same price as the GTS and its like comparing a Porsche to a Fiat. I also have a Bip and Bip S along with a Galaxy Watch Active, Gear Sport, Fit 2 Pro, Versa and 3 Pebbles that I still wear occasionally. None of these come close in build quality to my Honor watches and their steps, heart & sleep monitoring can't be beat.

    Well, non of them is a real smartwatch, they are just a sportwach with some notifications. So, as a sportwatch the most important feature is under the sun readability. GTS have amoled which is colourful with deep black, but under the sun is inferior to Bip S. Your outside try is not under direct sun light, just under cloudy sky.
