Versa Sense GPS Elevation Way Off

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Took my new Versa Sense on a 20 mile bike ride.  Wore my old Versa 2 on the other hand connected to my work phone with a different account.  Also had Strava running on my personal cell phone.  

 

Results:

 

Versa Sense:  2856 feet of elevation gain

Versa 2 Using Iphone SE:  481 feet

Strava running on IPhone XR:  543 feet

 

The elevation graph from the Versa Sense looks a lot more scattered with a lot of extra high frequency dips.  Feels like the filtering is not the same and / or the GPS gets a lot of erroneous readings.  I did have auto pause enable and did use it a bit.  

 

When I saw the 2856 number and the calories burned I was shocked.  Is this a defective unit or is the GPS in the Versa Sense GPS just that bad?  This feels like a deal breaker.  I so want the Versa Sense to be everything my Versa 2 is with the ECG feature.  I could care less about the built in GPS.  If it is this bad, I would much rather use the phone GPS which is not an option.
