The Runtastic is definitely a Garmin Forefunner 110 contender ...
By D. Fowler
I own the Garmin Forerunner 110, a GPS sports watch that has set the standard as to what this type of watch should do. I've been poring over the differences and frankly, I think that Runtastic is going to give Garmin a run for the money. Pun intended. A lot of people are familiar with Runtastic via their apps: Runtastic, Runtastic Road Bike, Walktastic, Runtastic Pedometer, Runtastic Mountain Bike, and Runtastic Winter Sports. Each watch can be set up to record data via Garmin Connect or Runtastic Connect. If you are working toward a particular goal like hitting that five minute mile you can check your progress and do things such as check out your route.There is a quick start guide included in the box, but you can find a 60-page manual online. I'll put the link in the comments section. When you have a cold start it's going to take a minute or more for satellite connection, but a warm start will get you up and running very quickly. There are a few differences between the watches, but depending on what you want, things seem to equal out here. The Garmin can be immersed in water while the Runtastic is only splash resistant. If you're training for the Spartan Beast and are immersing yourself in a river to challenge yourself you might opt for the Garmin. If you are a runner the choice is yours.The Runtastic has a compass and the Garmin doesn't. Planning on working on your survivalist tactics, you might want the Runtastic if you're heading out into unknown terrain. Bikers will be thrilled to note that the Runtastic comes with bike support. When I did a quick review of the Garmin, I said something like it was as good as it gets. Perhaps I spoke a bit too soon. Price wise, this watch is less expensive. Only time will tell as to how well this one performs over a longer period of time. Using the Runtastic, playing with it, poring over the specs ... some advantages over the Garmin, a few detractors, but overall this is an awesome watch for the money. I do think Garmin has a competitor.WHAT'S IN THE BOX:~ GPS Watch~ Sensor~ Chest Strap~ USB cable~ Bike Support (includes 2 cable clamps and 1 installing plate)~ Quick start guideCHARGING:Both the Garmin and Runtastic can be charged by plugging a USB cable into an AC adapter and plugging into a wall outlet.OS COMPATIBILITY:Garmin: Windows/MacRuntastic: Windows/MacBATTERY TYPE:Garmin: 200 mAh rechargeable, lithium-ion, coin-cell batteryRuntastic: Lithium-polymer accumulator, 380 mAh, 3.7VBATTERY LIFE:Garmin: Rechargeable, dependant on how much you use it.

By R. Wismer
I must admit, I've never heard of this brand before, but I am pleasantly surprised. Having used various brands in the past, including Polar, I have some insight.The first thing I noticed is that the display is clear and large. I have a Polar FT7 and the numbers on the display are too tiny! Not so with the Runtastic. Anyone with reasonable vision should be able to see the display.The buttons are large and easy to press, even with one hand.Holds the heart rate signal well (but have not tested it in the gym where interference can be a problem with some heart rate monitors). I have had heart rate monitors that would just go blank for a few seconds then come back. Of-course some of this depends on the moisture of the skin at the point of contact of the chest sensor. I did not need to moisten my skin at all, to get an uninterrupted signal to the watch.Plenty of settings. You can save your lap times and associated info. There is a website to upload your stored info.Comes with a bike-handlebar attachment for use with a bicycle.There are alerts to sound if you are out of your heart rate range. The beeps are reasonably loud.It takes your body weight/age/sex info to come up with an automatic range of acceptable heart rate zones or you can customize your own.The watch strap should accommodate, both males and females.It has a cool compass to show which direction you are headed.Estimates calories burned.The strap is comfortable and high quality. It does not slip down.The unit has a lithium-ion battery and must be charged. You get 16 hrs max if using the GPS. I suspect more if you shut off the GPS. Charging is easy. You just clip the included USB charger to the face of the Runtastic and connect the other end into a USP port on your computer or a USB wall charger (wall charger not included). Charge time is about 3 hours. The unit came charged.I have not tested the GPS function as of yet, but it should be pretty cool to see exactly how far I've run/walked.I recommend the Runtastic.

Very Good Entry Level GPS and HR Watch
By Michael D. Trimble
I am basing this review on the product's price within the category of Sport Monitoring Watches (those watches that collect and use both GPS and HR data). You can find similar watches with a greater number of high quality features but you'll pay upwards of $250 or more for those watches. Therefore, I am not comparing this watch to those much more expensive ones. This is a GOOD watch, at the currently listed price it also a GREAT value. It has all the basic features that most fitness enthusiasts need or want. Similar to Cable TV, if you want a special feature not available with this watch, you'll most likely pay a lot more, and with that one feature you will also get a "package" of other features that you don't want and that needlessly complicate the watch. As it is, this watch has the most popular features; reading the short version of the user guide is highly recommended and it is included with the watch. There is also a full length 60 page pdf manual on the company's website (runtastic.com). Getting started was easy. The day after I received the watch and read the short guide, I was at the gym on a stationary bike wearing the watch and monitoring my heart. After riding hard for over 40 minutes my watch recorded heart rate data (max and average) that was identical to what the stationary bike recorded so I have added confidence in its quality. Also supplied with the watch is a cable to transfers exercise data saved on the watch (GPS, HR, times, splits, etc) to a downloadable application that interfaces with the company website. This supplied cable also recharges the battery while it's connected to your computer via the USB connection. If you don't have a computer with a USB connection you will not be able to recharge the watch battery with the supplied parts. I don't run as much as a used to but I do hike regularly on the weekends. I plan to take this watch out this weekend or the next and compare its GPS tracking features to my current handheld GPS.One of my few complaints doesn't really pertain to this watch, rather it has to do with the associated website. Basic service on this site free, as it should be, but to access to all the features that similar sites have, like the garmin website, you have to pay for an upgrade to "pro" ($24.90 on sale now). This single limitation is really annoying. The watch and the website are meant to be used together so it's not like you have a choice. You should know this BEFORE you purchase the watch, not after having already paid for it. If you are readying this review then now you know. If you are okay will paying an annual subscription to the full version of the website, which is actually well conceived and feature rich, then I recommend this watch. If the answer to that question is "no" then there are other watches from other companies where there are no subscription fees and one of those other watches might suit your needs better.
