partydave Posted August 20, 2018 Share Morning everyone,So I just got a new Vivoactive 3 to replace my OG Vivoactive.So far, it's a great watch and I love it, but the current speed and average speed is wildly inaccurate. On a ride last night with almost no wind, my average speed on the watch was stated as 12.5 and current speed hovered around 13-14kmph. I thought this strange as I was on the roadie and putting in a little more effort that 14kmph When I synced my device, Strava showed my average speed as 23.2 which sounds more feasible. Fair game, Garmin Connect should not be used for tracking anyway, but wait, after syncing, connect shows my average speed as 23.1. What's going on? Is this a common issue with the new Vivoactive range? My original Vivo was quite accurate with speeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bollies Posted August 20, 2018 Share Watch is most likely showing miles per hour. Garmin Connect then converts to km. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
