I have been out running with my Motorola Motoactv recently and the new firmware update is proving to be awesome. Not only does the GPS watch now have an extended battery life but it also has a range of features that I was previously unaware of such as the ability for it to read out progress updates and other useful information at the touch of a button or the tap of a screen. 

One of my favourite things about  the Motorola GPS watch is the fact that it is so easy to use and operate. Out of all the watches that I have used the touch screen of the motoactv is the easiest to operate and it is even easy to navigate around the user interface using the touch screen when you are wearing glover or travelling at speed on a bike. 

The accuracy of the GPS is not the best and I have used other GPS watches that are much much more accurate but the Motorola is not far away from watches like the Nike or the Suunto pod watches. Some of them are better than others but the only downside to this particular watch is the fact that is can sometimes take a while to lock onto a signal just before you go running, cycling or training. 

There are lots of positives about the Motorola Motoactv though and I will be happy to share some of them over the comming weeks.
