Be an iron man - Garmin Garmin Forerunner 735XT iron three tables evaluation

It was pleasantly surprised and surprised to be able to test the Garmin Forerunner 735XT. According to Garmin's official introduction, the Garmin Forerunner 735XT was used to locate the top runners.

Especially triathlon runners.

Do not talk nonsense, first out of the box

Exterior

Inside the box is very simple, in addition to the watch itself, there is only one charging clip, no other accessories, this is not as good as 235 generous ah, 235 also has a watch strap and a screwdriver with a strap removed. We still look at the table first, the dial of 735XT is not big, slightly smaller than 235, the key function is as before.

The optical heart rate sensor on the back slightly protrudes

The strap is detachable, but it is a pity that unlike the 235, a screwdriver and replacement strap are not provided with the watch.

The strap is of good quality, but personally prefer the design of the 235 strap (below the strap of 235).

Clip-type charging/data cable

function test

The 735XT is a multi-functional sports watch with a variety of sport modes, including running, indoor running, cycling, indoor cycling, pool swimming, open water, triathlon and more. Simply speaking, it is mainly running, cycling and swimming. The point to note here is that when we enter the sport mode, pressing the up button is to select and change the exercise mode. Press the down button to set the exercise mode.

You can wear swimming and running in the rain is not a problem.

Of course, the features of the 735XT are far more than these. By referring to the official map, you can see how many features of the 735X5 are, and the most in the Garmin Forerunner watches.

Since it is a table for triathlon, it is an item test

Run


First run, 10 km run, there are three circles in the running page, respectively, display time, distance and calorie consumption, below shows the circuit diagram, the middle two tabs show the specific speed, speed and other information statistics.

The last tab shows the pace, heart rate, cadence, altitude, and timing of partitions during exercise. We look at the picture below, because there will be some things during the running, such as answering the phone, tying the shoelace, what is the pause, this time the speed must be reduced to the minimum, the corresponding pace must also stop, the heart rate because of sports The relationship will change more smoothly. From the point of view, these points are roughly corresponding and the problem is not significant.

Riding

Let's take a look at cycling again. This time we use the Garmin Connect web version to see how the statistics are consistent with the App. There is no difference between statistics and running, but content data is different.

There is also statistics on heart rate partitions,

If you want to count the cadence of cycling, you must combine the heart rate, but unfortunately I do not because I really do not like to take that.

Swim

Triathlon naturally can not be less swimming, swimming is too low (just learning, not far away, always paused, in order to test this to learn to swim, I'm easy), please do not joke. There are three main swimming statistics: round trip time, number of strokes, SWOLF (time + strokes), and average statistics.

One of the more interesting statistics for swimming is the distance statistics of the stroke distance in the statistics. If you add the following distance, the figure is 1276.7 meters, which is more than double the 525 meters. ,why? Based on my analysis of this distance and stroke, it is likely that this distance will be repeatedly counted when it is found that the stroke is incorrect or the stroke is changed . Originally, I wanted to find out the law of judging mistakes and statistical errors in this swimming stroke. As a result, I found that my swimming stroke was too bad and led to a very inaccurate swimming stroke judgment. However, it was impossible to record and analyze in real time and I had to give up.

GPS

The biggest advantage of sports watches is that they have their own GPS and they can get rid of mobile phones. At this time, the accuracy of GPS is very important. This will directly affect the statistical results. Let's take a look at the distance we have traveled above and we can see that the accuracy is still very high.

Look at the road map of the playground circle. When it was actually running, it was originally in the inner circle of the playground. Later, in the outermost circle, the GPS recorded by the watch was probably shifted by about 1 meter to the south (down). This is perfectly acceptable.

Also worth mentioning is that the 735XT's GPS positioning is significantly faster than the 235.

Heart rate

Personally, I don't like heart rate with this kind of thing, but for a good comparison, refer to the light year and others article (a large wave heart rate device intrusion: Scosche Rhythm + arm optical heart rate band) I entered a Scosche Rhythm + The arm-type heart rate belt, in combination with the 735XT test, results in a sad reminder of the discovery data, which is not returnable. Can only be done, observed in individual sports, when running, the heart rate is almost the same, in the HIIT-like movement center rate difference is a bit obvious.

It is worth mentioning that the heart rate beam of the 735XT is very concentrated, because of the principle of the optical heart rate meter, this can effectively improve the accuracy of the optical heart rate sensor, and it is estimated that it is done at the translucent point.

In addition to the above, the 735XT also provides a lot of more professional data for training reference, such as lactate threshold, maximum oxygen uptake, etc. These data need to be improved with special training, and will not be described here.

software

For sports, the analysis of data and data is very important. Garmin Connect is still very powerful. It can plan routes, can make training plans, can analyze sports data, and can do a lot of things. It will not be introduced here. I also Need to constantly explore.

Not to mention these advantages, I would like to say some shortcomings. In the above riding and swimming tests, I used the web version of Connect data, but this data is not visible on the web side. This problem has troubled me for nearly a month and was finally found in the "Science Online" accidentally . Under the circumstances, we will be able to access the specific data of the event normally. We hope to solve this problem as soon as possible.

At the time of setting up, it was found that choosing Chinese (China), there was a bunch of traditional characters, what other Chinese (Chinese) and Chinese (Taiwan) ghosts ? Never heard of this name, what is Singapore's Chinese? Chinese only has the distinction between Simplified and Traditional and no regional distinction.

Whether it is the App or the web-based Connect, which is very cumbersome, there should be a lot of room for improvement. In addition, both the Yue Run and Yao are unable to access the data of Jia Ming. This is unfortunate.

to sum up

In sports mode (turning on the GPS), the actual life is about 13 hours, which is still relatively good. Considering the 735XT positioning the top runners, playing a lot of iron and super horses in the top runners, for them, this life Still tight. As an iron three watch, the statistical judgment of swimming needs to be optimized, especially the judgment of swimming stroke.

735XT charging, battery life, GPS, heart rate are significantly better than 235, of course, the price is much higher, for the average person is 235 can be used, and want to better able to bear this price 735XT is worth considering.
