I test ran the gf2 for 8 days. Although I knew after only a day that I would be returning it. The display, looks, fit and feel of the band are spectacular. And they were the only reasons I pushed off going back to my subpar looking fitbit charge hr.
Within 15 minutes of putting it on I realized that the 3 times I walked upstairs to prep for my first outdoor run...no flights of stairs were counted and over the next 8 days it counted only 10 of the approx 15 flights I do per day. Then came my first GPS used run...which only calculated half of my route. While mileage was close but not 100% accurate, the steps were way off normal. The same abnormalities occurred with my steps plus heart rate over the next 8 days. During cross fit exercises, there is no option to track the workout with heart rate being counted. The band's "other workout" has an option for moderate or vigorous workout types which calculates calories burned based solely on time of workout depending which type is selected.
I'm not sure if most or all of this stuff can be fixed via software updates but I will be keeping an eye on it, hoping. The band has so much potential but the basic fitness operations of the band just aren't good at all.

It's what you'd expect, but not much more...

I am average gamer nowadays, as I don't have the time I used to. I've been through every system in the passed 20 years and expected more out of this one. It's a great system but it's Def not the step up I thought it would be. Hopefully future updates help improve the system. Overall I'm Def happy with the PS4, I just hoped for more.
