HR Discrepancy Between Logged and Autosensed Workouts

[Astralhippie]

Howdy!

I'm posting to see if anyone else has noticed that the charge 3 senses higher HR's doing the same activities when I log it manually with a button rather than letting the watch autosense the workout. I do a lot of Beatsaber and VR workouts, and if I start an aerobic exercise it's showing my HR getting into cardio levels whereas the autosense barely breaks 110 at highest intensity. Which reading should I trust?

The one that is closest to taking a 6-10 sec pause and manually taking your pulse at your neck.

Then I'd suggest getting that issue logged along with which was the true pulse in the device specific forum for Fitbit to troubleshoot.

That's interesting. Make sure you have latest firmware - since you know they'll confirm you do.
