New Inspire 3 consistently showing HR which is 10 to 20 points low vs Apple watch and gym eqpt. Having used HR for years, I can tell that the Inspire heart rate is far off. Tried tighter/looser, under wrist, over wrist, etc. Anyone have similar issues and perhaps found solution? Wouldnt use this Fitbit at all for HR zone workouts.

Hi, @Salieri619, welcome to the community, you may be interested in this video comparison of HR trackers. While the conclusion is limited to the devices tested the major takeaway is results vary. Note that chest bands measure HR differently from Optic sensors on the wrist. 

I hope this is useful.

Cheers
