General thread about running with smartwatches.

Why do you run with (or without) a smartwatch? Which model do you have? What functionalities do you use often or are there any that you think are redundant? Did yours ever broke down? Are the sensors accurate?

Currently I do not have any but plan to buy one, budget max 200eu. Both the garmin forerunner 245 or 55 seem like solid choices but I am open to suggestions.

No, you're right, it would cancel out much of the point. The companion app to the smartphone wouldn't have access to your data, but Strava would, since that's the point of the app.
