I like that yellow strap…won’t be me, I already have the GBD200UU, but nice nonetheless

Probably we have to wait for owner reviews to compare GPS acquisition time

It supports GPS, QZSS, Galileo, Beidou, GLONASS (GBD-H1000 supports GPS, QZSS, GLONASS)

It supports L1+L5 signals. (Is it the first G-Shock to support dual-frequency GPS? I don't know, maybe someone can answer)

It is dual GPS chip but unlike Garmin it uses either one or another and not both to compensate for signal loss. At least according to Casio. There is frequency of acquisition setting which is good. 14 hr with GPS continuous is not impressive though and similar to previous model. so probably not a new CPU on board.
There is may be new HR sensor with O2 data (like previous model) and sleep tracking. Could be only software update could be new sensor. Proper pictures of the back will reveal truth.

Personally i would not be dreaming about sleeping with such big watch on my wrist but adding sleep tracking and recovery data which i assume is some kind of Garmin Body Battery equivalent is a good addition. Which is software feature and not hardware related.

Over all it seem to have better fitness tracking and truly worthy of new model status GPS/functionality update.

It seem to be using new GPS chip and i would assume it same as one you find in Garmin. There are not many of them out there.

We can probably expect reviews from usual suspects very soon. Casio probably sent them review units already.
Given Casio keeps prices same it becoming more worthy competitor of Instinct 1 Solar.
Still not the Instinct 2/2 Solar though.

Many things are still missing, but at least few core things are there. And as i said in other thread it was worth to wait. New model indeed was close and without doubt given same price it is better buy than previous one.

Just goes to show how long they took to get to the level of instinct 1.

Something isn't right here. First are dimensions of the 2000 bottom is the 1000 but on the last photo it just doesn't seem to be correct. Or the photo is done on a strange way or the details are incorrect on Casio web 🤷🏻‍♂️

I think the the H2000 is placed farther back than the H1000 in the photo so it appears smaller. That retail price is way up there for that kind of watch. It's already looking bad for this one.

That app and the has been out since last year and im gonna say the watch already exist from theh autum 2022 as i see the video they wearing Not winter clothes

View attachment 17278464
haha too many variables to make a call like this. the app display could simply be superimposed and the date was when they created the video of the functions. clothing means nothing, plenty of shoots take place in off seasons but are made to look like diff seasons. whole tv shows are set in summer but filmed in winter or they couldve simply had the footage filmed in a summer looking country, plenty of ways to fool the viewer.

again they not add multiband 6
and they said
When GPS radio waves are not received or when not linked with a smartphone, it operates with normal quartz accuracy (average monthly difference ± 15 seconds).
they used word OR is that mean u can use gps and adjuste the time without linked watch withe the phone ??
the gbdh1 has gps sync without the phone which is why ive always said it was an upgrade of the 9400 ie. an ABC watch with gps sync and step tracker (and bonus hrm and some fitness stuff). ppl just get stuck on the clumsy mb6 for some reason

Yes, you can use the watch without linking it to the phone. As for MB6, it's becoming a thing of the past.
