Bluetooth doesn't transmit very well underwater.
It's a great all around fitness/smart watch and mine stays on my wrist 24/7. I like that it geotags your entry and exit! However, I always dive with my Teric for deco and wireless AI. If I am on CCR, I dive with another two Petrels in addition to the Descent and Teric.
If I knew that, I would be making PDCs.How does it do that on descent? Does it use the last GPS position it had before it can't hear the satellite any more?
In air, sure.Really? Supposed to be 33 feet unobstructed.
AI uses Bluetooth or WIFI? Garmin descent has WIFI. Could be okay when some day a WIFI pressure sensor has been built?Bluetooth doesn't transmit very well underwater.
Neither. Can't speak for all transmitters, but the pelagic used by shearwater, oceanic, etc transmits at 38 kHz. Way way lower frequency than Bluetooth or wifi.AI uses Bluetooth or WIFI? Garmin descent has WIFI. Could be okay when some day a WIFI pressure sensor has been built?
Ha ha the information from Garmin "your case which seems like a malfunction on the device depth sensor"Ha. I didn't even notice.. Reset and try next time and see. Better it's not pressure sensor issue. Never had that for me
In air, sure.
Underwater it's not unobstructed.
