Nike+ SportWatch GPS Powered by TomTom w/Pod Customer feedback

Comments: Awful product.  Even though I charged it until the screen says "full", it quit on me during a long run at 8 miles and quit in a marathon at mile 23.  At mile 23, it was off from the race course by about 3/10 of a mile so the pacing wasn't very accurate.  Hard to sync with the computer.  I hate it and regret it much. From: Lisa, Jax, FL, USA Comments: I have had this for about 8 months and it has worked great, up until I dropped it once. It has absolutely no durability or protection and the glass breaks easily. That is not a problem though as it is just the corner of the screen. However, the strap with the cord in it is beginning to kink and I am having trouble getting it to charge. Also, the little USB cover is very brittle, I have had to superglue it twice. Overall, very good for Nike's first GPS watch and I will buy an update should they fix those problems. I would recommend this, just don't drop it, ever. From: Sam, Bemidji, MN, USA Comments: I've had mine now for about 4 months, and have had little to few issues with it. It's an all around great watch and GPS tracker, and works well even without the shoe chip (I'm a Vibram FiveFingers kind of guy). All in all, an excellent running watch. From: Andy, Crestwood, KY, USA Comments: Mine has worked perfectly so far, I've put about 600 miles on it in the last 6 months including three full marathons in a 41 day time period.  I don't use the shoe chip at all though, I run exclusively in Vibram FiveFingers.  I've had little hiccups here and there, connection issues to Nikeplus.com, but in the end I've never actually lost a run.  And relying only on the GPS, my distances have been near perfect!  I've ran 3 full marathons with this watch now, and one was a trail marathon on single track mountain bike trail with %100 tree coverage!  I still got an accurate reading!  On my full marathons, the distance was less than .15 miles off over 26.2 miles!  The only real complaint that I have is that the plastic piece where the USB connection is has finally cracked after so much use, they need to make this part of the watch sturdier.  Other than that, this has been my single most beloved piece of running equipment that I have. From: Tim, Portland, Oregon, USA Comments: I run anywhere from 50-80 miles a week, usually at 6:30-7:30/mi training pace. I have never been so looking forward to a product then disappointed as I was with the Nike GPS Sportswatch. I bought it at the Boston Marathon expo and after 2 months, I wish I could get my money back. Last night was the last straw, when it said my workouts were uploaded but the site (after many attempts to even load) wouldn't show my 13 miler. How is there no Export function to account for possible glitches!? Seems like a no-brainer. Also once again the GPS was inaccurate and short. It has consistently been short of half a mile or more. I think the foot pod was a good idea in theory but the watch relies on it too much it should ONLY go to the pod when in tunnels. But seems like the only time it's ever accurate even in wide open outdoors is if I have both. That shouldn't be the case with a decent GPS. I had issues with the unit connecting to the computer, with the settings for display not doing what I selected (although that was fixed with a firmware update), but I can't put up with short-changing my runs and not displaying one entirely. Nike keeps saying it's a "work in progress," but what it really seems to be is a broken product that was rushed to market without enough testing. Ordered the high-end Garmin yesterday and while Garmins historically haven't been perfect they've been a far more solid product so I'm hoping for good things. Nike, you could've had a winner here but opportunity lost. From: Bill, Boston, MA, USA
