@ChaseTheSummit 2 года назад

I don't really have an "every day" watch at this point but I've been wearing the Enduro for a long term review video.

@javierf55 2 года назад

Great video, thanks. In my experience the sync process for Spotify EATS the battery. Also, I'm using Jabra elite active 75t which are very good but I need to rise my hands up to my chest level, otherwise I get lots of noise and interference in the signal, maybe from the GPS.

@ChaseTheSummit 2 года назад

Yeah anything that leverages the wifi connection tends to eat the battery. Thanks for sharing!

@PhilMargolies 2 года назад

Hey Javier. Some earbuds have their "master" bud on the left or the right earbud and that cannot be changed. Some will change automatically. That bud is used for the Bluetooth transmission. So, if your watch is on your left wrist and the master bud is in your right ear, the audio might cut out or have inferior quality since it's trying to transmit through your body. I had the same issue until I switched the wrist used to wear my Garmin watch. Now it's perfect, regardless of where I'm holding my hands. Good luck.🙂

@javierf55 2 года назад

@@PhilMargolies Hi Phil, yes the Jabra elite 75 are master/slave with the first at the right. I also solved my issue by switching the watch to the right wrists. It's also important to switch it at user profile options. Thanks for your advise!

It automatically syncs when you're connected to wifi.

I've heard a lot of complaints with the Vista 1's dropping with Garmin watches. So far the Vista 2's have been pretty stable for me.

Are you manually uploading MP3's or syncing to Spotify? If they're MP3's you'll need to plug the watch into your computer and use Garmin Express to remove them. If they're spotify you can just edit your sync'd playlist to remove songs or remove playlists entirely.
