TomTom Spark

 

The TomTom Spark Cardio + Music is the satnav maker's third GPS sports watch. Well fourth, if you count its partnership with Nike for the Nike+ SportWatch, which first launched back in 2011.

Slim and comfortable to wear all day ; Quick GPS signal pick up ; Reliable heart rate data

Pairing Bluetooth headphones is temperamental ; Software still needs a lot of work ; Poor battery life when using all features

The TomTom Spark Cardio is a solid GPS sports watch, but it's not quite the ultimate all-in-one device I'd hoped for.

Hands on: TomTom Spark review

 

Street beat

Better design ; Music feature could be very useful ; Heart rate monitor improved

Generalist fitness features very basic ; Most of the music controls are limited to your headphones

TomTom Spark Cardio + Music review: Feature-packed for fitness fun

 

TomTom has diverged from personal navigation, seeing the company embrace sports devices in recent years. After an initial partnership with Nike, it stepped out on its own with the Multi-Sport and Multi-Sport Cardio sportswatches, the predecessors to...

Plenty of features, good GPS and heart rate tracking performance, easy to navigate

Music is a little fiddly, dependency on a computer feels dated

The TomTom Spark is a compelling sportswatch offering plenty of features for fitness fans. Importantly, we've found that the results are accurate, with good distance-tracking and very good heart-rate monitoring.

The Spark could have done a bit more - with an improved desktop interface for music - to make you leave your other gadgets behind without thinking twice.

TomTom Spark fitness watch review: No great shakes - The Times of India

 

The TomTom Spark fitness watch is a fitness tracker that despite it's potential can't live up to it's pricetag.

* Big display ; * Effective sleep tracking ; * Rugged

Considering the fact that this watch has been priced at Rs 21,999 (Cardio + Music) its performance is not what we had expected. And it does not look fancy enough to merit that price tag. The less costly versions might be a different case, but the top...

Consumer review (argos.co.uk)

Works accurately

 

Mainly wanted to use as a pedometer, it counts steps accurately and gives distance from its built in gps. Only negative is its a bit bulky but they all seem to be.

Consumer review (argos.co.uk)

Marvellous piece of kit for anyone who is wanting

 

Fab watch. Tracks sleep, steps and has GPS so it can tracl running and cycling etc etc and all downloads simply to Tom Tom app which also links to Strava and lors of other fitness app trackers. Easy to use as my 10 year old daughter can use it. Marvelous
