      @jthomi At first view seems that are very close, but i guess watch is better. More stable line and close to tracks, no?
      Which model of smartphone did you use and in watch did you use Navstar+Glonass or without Gl?

              @slashas Or there is a bug on graph or in values of table. The zone in question (maybe a valley) i bet that graph have right values.

                  Its the Suunto Spartan Sport in shiny Blue, so without Baro.

                  And the iPhone7 with newest iOS.

                  But now that you mentioned it, the tracking of elevation in the app was with GPS not Barometer. And it may sound dumb, but my iPhone7 has a barometer? Oh, my, just seeing it right now, who knew…
                  I can switch the barometer on tomorrow for the other ride.

                    Maybe the app was exactly 204 descent and ascent? The screenshot from the data in the app is also pretty close, only 0,40 meters off.

                          Mygps files calculates its own way the ascent.

                          All day in comparison look fine do not create a problem out of this.

                            Watch looks better. At the moment Galileo from.my tests does not give more than 4% improvement. Tested on Android and the test gps apps that support Galileo.

                              I would not bother with ascent at this time. All services do it their own way. Especially mygps files.

                                Also the correct term is ascent. Elevation is altitude. You can say elevation gain for example or altitude gain or ascent.

                                  @dimitrios-kanellopoulos In this case we cannot make that extrapolation, because Suunto app in smartphone will get information from 3 or 4 systems. We don’t know which satellites device use in certain activity. Unfortunately we cannot select on iOS or Android what system to be on/off.

                                    I also think watch looks better, you can see the track points, App has 2317 points and the watch 11684, guess that why its more accurate.

                                    And I guess nobody here would make a problem out of it. I think even if watch looks better, they seem pretty similar, don’t they…

                                        @dimitrios-kanellopoulos If we can have access to information of native file maybe is possible to get that information (each satellite have one id). But in smartphones i really don’t know.
