Yol bisikleti ile dün yaptığım sürüşte nabzım 172 ortalama 201 max idi. Normal mi bu? Kendimi kötü hissetmiyorum yüksek olsa da. Xiaomi akıllı saat ile ölçüyorum az çok doğrudur yanlış veri değil ki kendim nabzimi kontrol edince rahat 150-160 üstü olduğu da belli oluyor.

Hi everyone,

I'm a road cyclist planning to get an iPhone 17 and Apple Watch Series 11 combo soon. I usually go on long rides and I need to know if the battery can survive a 10-hour session (100% to 0%) under these specific conditions:

• Sensors: An external Bluetooth cadence sensor will be paired to the watch.
• Usage: I will use the 'Mirroring' (Live Activity) feature to view my data on the iPhone screen.
• Display: 'Always-On Display' (AOD) and 'Wake on Wrist Raise' will be OFF. The watch screen will remain dark most of the time.
• GPS/HR: Active heart rate and GPS tracking through the native Workout app.
• Connectivity: Non-cellular model (connected via Bluetooth to the phone). No LTE.

One more detail: During short breaks, I can charge the watch for 5-10 minutes using a power bank or via the phone's port.

Under these settings, do you think it's possible to reach the 10-hour mark comfortably? I’m trying to avoid dedicated bike computers as I need a watch that is also great for daily use. Any long-distance riders here who have tested this? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I’m planning to upgrade my phone and watch in a few months and I’m currently torn between two setups: an iPhone 17 with an Apple Watch Series 11, or a Samsung S series flagship with a Huawei Watch GT 6 Pro. Which combo do you think performs better specifically for cycling? I’m particularly interested in the feature that allows you to mirror real-time data from the watch to the phone screen, essentially using the phone as a bike computer. I know this works seamlessly on Apple, but I have no idea how it performs on the Huawei/Android side, or if an iPhone + Huawei pairing is even a viable option for a cyclist. While I love the Apple Watch in every other aspect, the battery life is my main concern; I need the watch to last at least 10 hours on a single charge (100-0%) with GPS and Bluetooth active while paired with a cadence sensor. Huawei seems superior for sports and battery, but I’m not a fan of its UI and design for daily wear. For those who do long rides: will the Apple Watch Series 11 let me down on a 10-hour trek, or should I go with the more sports-focused Huawei despite the design?
