@snow crazy how it didn’t occur to them that people running with their running watches would be interested in running data from another device by the same company, and in combining both sources of running data for analysis.
Other than that, the experience is quite good in my view, coming from Schockz Openrun. Which I broke. Several times. In the end after 3 years i couldn’t repair them adequately anymore. So, let’s try the Spark…
Sound quality is really good, very enjoyable. Unless…
it’s a windy day
you’re road or gravel cycling
you’re on a average-noisy treadmill
there’s traffic nearby
the gym is blasting music at you
Then it’s just not loud enough and doesn’t isolate you from those noises (that is normally part of the appeal).
Those issues also affected bone conduction headphones, but not as much. So, no new issues, but a regression.
I will do another cycling commute next week when I’m back from overseas and check again. Until then I’ll be using them at hotel gyms a lot. I think i will keep them, but the fact that I’m not sure yet says it all.
