    I love the features on the Peregrine TX...For recreational divers like myself, this covers all the spots I need. The large, colored screen is easy to see. Ease of use and some degrees of customization are also great. Plus, Peregrine now comes with AI and Digital Compass too. What a great dive computer!!

    As previously mentioned, great video guys well done. My favourite for diving warm water (holiday) dives is the Shearwater Teric. Bright clear display with plenty of dive information especially when linked to the tank pod. Its small enough to wear as standard watch also on a liveaboard for example and not having (email, text) notifications is a plus, im on holiday relaxing. Ive seen, own, used and discussed the others on the list but keep coming back to the Teric every time.
    Keep up the great videos guys.👌

    My favorite dive computer is the Garmin Mk3i (51mm) for several reasons:
    Very good dive watch- Supports multiple gas mixtures and dive types.
    Tracks and navigates dive sites with GPS.
    Very good battery life(not surprising with Garmin)
    Supports air Integration on the watch

    Bonus is that it's a watch I can grow into as a diver.

I jumped on that since it had Ai and compass.. The screen is really bright as stated in the video. I highly recommend this computer for new divers. It's about $1100 with the pod and is amazing

    Garmin MK3i 51mm is my favourite because it can do it all as a multisport smartwatch and is still a kick ass technical diving computer with air integration and crazy battery life. The dive readiness is a useful crossover of the smartwatch and dive computer features.

    I have the Garmin Descent G1(non-solar) - As someone moving towards either technical or divemaster it was a great choice (especially secondhand in great condition and very affordable). It's a big step up from my old Suunto Zoop (non-Novo! That old!).
    The Descent G1 is awesome, like noted, above and below water. A close competitor to a traditional "smartwatch".
    My problem and the reason I drrool over the Garmin MK3i 51mm? Presbyopia (I need reading glasses) - I just can't read the small screen fonts 1/2 the time. Having a bigger, better, brighter display will make a *huge* difference.
    Ohhh, Air Integration too... like, duh! So journey progression will be towards Air Integration, and for a dedicated "smart watch" that does all of the tech diving plus everything else + air.... Clear winner for me.

    In the bottom tier I understand taking the established values, but as a new diver I went with the astonishing aqualung i330r, which is holding its ground quite firmly offering also nitrox capabilities and free dive mode, while also having a colour screen and rechargeable battery.
    But if I may dream, I would of course go for the Garmin Mk3i. The air integration I find is a big difference with the descent as well. I want to better my air consumption and therefore an air integrated watch would be very helpful to analyse at what moments my air consumption goes up. For that specific reason the Suunto Ocean has an important edge. It has air integration, cost considerably less, and is a sport watch all around. As I am a hiker and horseback rider, this is the one I am particularly saving for!

      The Fenix 8 is obviously playing against the Apple Watch Ultra. In terms of diving they are kind of the same level with the 40m rating, no AI, no gas change. While Apple in my opinion is the better smartwatch, Garmin is more focussed on sports. So, the Fenix 8 has battery life on their side and especially no subscription model which makes it cheaper in the long run. And, as far as I know, they won’t lock you, if you drop below 40.

    As a recreational diver, I own the Cressi Donnatelo and for the price point I think it's a good choiche when geting into the dive world without breaking the bank and investing in other quality gear instead. It does everything I need at this moment. The one push button though... yeah, you need to get used to it.
    I do however see the benefit of having an always on screen (OLED) as on the Cressi you have to always long-push the button for to light it up for those few seconds.
    An integrated compass and possibility of air integreation seem like a good reason for a future upgrade. But the price entry for those devices at 600€... Ouch
    For your next roundup, would be great if you could include the Cressi Raffaelo, Mares Sirius/Quad computers as well.

    Good overall review with very detailed differentiators helping with ‘Who is this computer for.’ I really liked that. Thanks for showing a wide variety of price points as well as highlighting readability. I have some older pucks and a Peregrine TX. The readability and ease of use on the Shearwaters is amazing and consistent across their entire line and I would buy another like a Perdix or Teric if I wanted to do more Tec diving. The actual battery life was a unique group test and some great data with a few big surprises. You also nailed why so many are hesitant on the Apple Watch - the lockout potential kept me away…. The subscription deters many unnecessarily, as you noted because if one dives a few times a year … and all in a one or two week period it’s a good deal economically. Also appreciated seeing the new Suunto as compared to Teric and MK3s…. Screen looks amazing, but your coverage of usability was very insightful. So many great choices. Did you notice any differences algorithmically/diversified time and deco response in their implementations? Thanks for such a thorough set of reviews.

      @@DIVEindotcom I have the non-AI Peregrine; love the unit. Less than a year after buying it...the TX comes out! Just my luck. I'll probably buy the TX and trans, and put the original in my wetsuit pocket for backup. The MK3i is fantastic I bet. The new fenix 8 will be a big hit for those divers who don't need/want AI.

    As a diver just getting back into it after 30 years, I’m new to the computer age of diving so this video was a HUGE help in learning what would be best for me as an occasional sport diver with 60 year old eyes. The Perigrin would be my pick because it’s in my price range relative to my type of diving, and the large bright screen is a huge plus over monochrome screens. Especially diving in Midwest lakes with less than pristine visibility the screen and features would fit me nicely.

    Has to be Garmin Mk3i (51mm) as it simply does everything so well
    The battery life is amazing. The dive logging is so detailed, the usual, depth, bottom time etc. but so smuch more:
    GPS coordinates of where you entered and where you exited the dive, water temp, gas consumption rate, and more and more.
    Track your gym workouts, sleep patterns, runs, ... what doesn't it do 😄
    ... and I'm a regular Diveinn shopper 😉

    Apple Watch Ultra - I've dived it 7.5-8 hrs a day repetitive, in addition to wearing it in between, and charged it daily. No issues.I understand that is a bunch less than the others, but still reasonable. And it doesn't do everything, but I didn't buy it to be a dive computer; pleasantly surprised by how much I like it as one.

    Hi. Absolutely the Garmin Decent Mk3i… imo the best supporting software and ultimate device below and above water. I have an 10year old Garmin Fénix3 and it’s still my every day watch and activity sports tracker. Now that my kids are interested is diving, i think AI is becoming more priority than nice to have. I would be able to keep track of their tank pressures. At the moment, it’s just way outside of my budget.

    I can highly recommend the TernTX (plus SwiftAI) for recreational: it has a rich but concise UI/UX and performs brilliantly, nice to wear in surface intervals too. No silly smartwatch gimmicks, no silly touchscreen. IMO the only competition is also a Shearwater: the PeregrineTX. It has more battery life and a larger screen although it’s LCD with worse viewing angles, lower resolution and more wasted empty space. It’s also very bulky and tall off the wrist, so I think makes the most sense if you’re diving cold water and/or have poor viz (i.e equally bulky drysuits & gloves, in lakes).
