Hi,
Can anyone tell me why the 220 is worth double the cost of the 10.
I have the nike gps watch but want to replace it for a gps watch with better connectivity and not 5 minutes at a time for a signal.
Does the 10 allow you to scroll between screens during a run? I know you can put two data fields per screen?
I'd like distance, time, split time, and avg pace for distance.
Thanks!
FR 10 can switch views while running. FWIW the watch does *not* record elevation data. You used to be able to upload the data to Garmin Connect and it would interpolate the elevation data (and allow you to export the complete data). That stopped working at some point, and, unless they fixed it in the last month or so, there was no ETA on when it would be working again. It made it kind of dumb, so I went back to using my phone. When it worked, though, it was a nice watch.
I have the nike watch and I feel your pain. The forerunner 10 is by far the best watch I've ever bought. It connects in only a few seconds even under heavy cloud cover and is spot on with the mile points. I just used it for a race Sunday and it was dead on for each mile marker. Finally found a great watch. Super light weight too.
Good to know Im not alone!
I like the nike but it could be better. Ive had it two years and the synching is getting worse.
The 220 has the ability to create workouts which is cool.
A tough call indeed!
Never had the 10 but I use the 220 and it is a very good running watch. Acquires satellite lock in less than 5 seconds (unless you fly to a different location - then it might take 30seconds the first time). Also since the watch face is so small (compared to 310/910 etc) like that I can just use it as an everyday watch with almost unlimited battery life. In GPS tracking mode it's only about 8-10 hours.
