1. I’m super interested in running power. Got a PM on my bike which has been amazing so keen to see how power can help with running training and pacing.

2. Most important is a great display so I can see everything at a very quick glance

3. built in running power with the intention of buying Stryd at a later date

4. Looking for a GPS watch with long battery life in GPS mode to support an FKT attempt.

5. The feature I think running watches should have is to automatically choose the best GNSS/gyroscope combined to give as accurate as possible tracking for pace.

   The other is analytics, not so much a million and one stats/graphs but some real insight into what training to do or how your training run/ride/swim/gym session went and what to focus on. We are probably 5years away from this in the mainstream consumer domain

   1. data>information?insight?knowledge …moving along that spectrum

6. Power based training – native support and hopefully being able to create some actual training based routines on it. Polar I’m looking at you!

7. Accuracy and battery life. Two things I’m getting more frustrated with over time with my garmin!

8. Accurate instant pace
   P.S. I also retweeted the post 😉

9. 1 feature: battery life in a lightweight watch

10. The best features are price and weight. Compared to G245 and G945, it is basically almost half of the weight and the price.

11. Single feature: full Stryd integration with all metrics.
    Something nice: You’re my no. 1 site for info and reviews on sports tech. No other site I’m aware of even comes close.

12. Voice prompts to announce pace without having to look down.

    Reliability – i’ve had to replace a number of Garmin units due to temp/ alt sensor failing.

13. one feature – leave the mainstream garmin sh…

14. Battery life. Both because it enables tracking of longer runs and just being able to go out for a run without the added consideration of making sure your watch has enough juice to last.

15. I think the most important feature is GPS tracking across all sports. (Open water swimming, cycling, and running (; )

16. Accuracy in all conditions. Also, good open water swim GPS accuracy is a bonus.

    Thanks for the great reviews on your site!

    Re-tweeted.

17. Important feature: Intuitive software. They mostly all seem accurate enough, but if the button controls or data analysis don’t make any sense, I’m out. (See: my old Suunto Spartan)

18. Looking for a successor for my polar watch, and the single most important feature is a quick gps fix, so I can start running right away. With my current watch, I need to wait like a fool outside my front door…

    1. most new gps watch models should do that well.

       1. Yes I suppose so… But I guess only when it doesn’t, you realize the importance of it 😉

19. I’m old school when it comes to the primary feature I want to work on a running watch; to know how far and how fast at any given point during the run. (You could say that’s two things, but given speed is distance/time, you have to have distance to get speed 🙃 )

    [done the retweet thing too]

20. 1 single feature – good screen view with customization to view your lap stats etc when doing different sessions

21. one single feature – enough battery life with gps and hrm on to do an all day (10+ hours) activity without having to charge

22. A fabulous giveaway….I think it would have to be accuracy for me.

23. I really like the track mode as I do at least once a week a track workout

24. I like the cadence and power features.

25. Good question…Accurate distance, to stick to the basics, with a twist with the Stryd footpod…and hopefully the Coros Pace 2 soont !

26. Yeah. Sounds really great. I would really like to compare this watch to my Garmin.
    Full Stryd-Support and native Power based structured Workouts? What i waited for.

27. Single most important feature has to be accurate instant pace.

28. My single favorite feature would be to have solar charging good enough that allows the device to never need recharging.

29. Native running power and the ability to use this feature in a work out. Game changer !

30. I just want an actual fitness focused watch with LTE (so not a vivoactive-type watch) so I can send my location while running and receive/send texts.

    1. AW6 ?

31. readability… my eyes are not so good anymore.

32. Better Stryd integration, incl sync of power data with Strava, than my Garmin 645/Garmin Connect provides…..

33. A solid platform behind it so it can be used as a personal trainer in various situations. I run with COPD and without an athletic background, so for me it is more a medical device aiding recovery.

34. A good battery life.

35. Single feature, hmm…. long battery life and GPS accuracy.

36. Single feature – for me is accurate GPS and holy grail of accurate instant pace.

37. Running power

38. Single feature: accurate *and* precise (technically not the same, but for a layman two sides of the same coin)
    Feature two: don’t try to take over my world and try to read my contacts, my emails, my texts etc. Shutup and be a GPS datalogger, not a coffee machine.

    1. +1

39. accurate instant pace, Stryd’s compatibility, light weight, battery life

40. For me the most important thing is the accuracy of the gps and the heart rate. Follow-up of maps and possibility of interrelation with other runners as well. Greetings and excellent your analysis of career products.

41. Accurate instant pace would be great

    1. it’s called STRYD 😉

42. A nitro mode, please.

    1. beetroot juice is nitro. google beet-it

43. GPS accuracy exact heart rate. Good price and promotions. Great analysis of yours, The5kRunners

44. Only just started running and nearly finished C25K and never had a running watch so not sure what feature would be most useful to me yet, but probably something basic like pace and distance to start with. That Coros Pace2 looks like an awesome watch for the price, can’t wait until they are in the shops 🙂

45. Why only 1 feature? This watch has so many 😀 Power from your wrist, STRYD integration, post workout analysis, … The only missing feature is an integrated espresso maker!

    Thanks for the interesting content and the regular postings. Keep up the good work!

46. My Garmin 630 has just cracked the screen, which also seems to have removed the ANT connection to the HRM strap, and I need a great running watch to replace it

47. Since I have Forerunner 945 it’s hard to say that there is one single feature that is important to me. But with all of the features Pace 2 has, incredible battery life and ridiculously low weight, I could easily switch from Garmin ecosystem, music playback, on watch payments, and maps to this beast

48. 1 feature – more buttons. I wish they would ditch the knob. It’s a lot easier to just reach down and hit up/down buttons when you’re running or riding your bike, then fiddling w/ the gimmicky crown.

    1. +1

49. hi, my single feature is structured workout with power and including accurate post wokout analysis.

    Have a nice day,

50. Lightweight and long battery life. Pace 2 sounds like the perfect replacement for my broken running watch!
