- This 20 second video compares the display of the Garmin Descent MK2i to the Shearwater Teric when viewed in bright sunlight. For my complete review, please visit www.divetech.com/post/review-...
You have the Garmin with White Characters and the Teric on Purple... Daaa Garmin will look better. Put the Teric on Cyan or White and try again. For the Record, I used the Red Color and found the same issue, I have had no issues with the Teric in White or Cyan. Saw a MK2 at Paradise Springs, FL.... Yeah not that much brighter then my Teric on the surface. Underwater, the Teric won.
Very nice written review. It pretty much sums up what i was thinking.
As pointed out in another comment, the brightness on the Teric may be turned up full but you selected a color scheme that has very low contrast. For example all yellow or white text on a black background would have looked twice as bright.
with a low contrast color scheme on the teric it isn't really a fair comparison and was the light setting on high?
Hi. To be clear we are huge Shearwater fans here, and the Teric is an amazing computer - we're not knocking it. The screen setting on the Teric was a bright as it would go. The purpose of this video is more to show how well the Descent does in sunlight due to it's different display. If you read my review, where I compare the 2 displays, I write they both have their strengths and weaknesses. The Descent is much easier to see in bright light, but in any dim or dark light the Teric is much better.
@@DivetechLtdWestBay hi there! Where can I read your comparison review about these dive computers? It's a rare information in the internet as l see for now. Thank you

@@DivetechLtdWestBay Thanks 🤗
@@DivetechLtdWestBay He is not talking about how bright you had it set. He is saying that you used a Low contrast color scheme on the Teric. This will be more pleasing when you dive but about half as bright in direct sunlight. You unintentialy set the Teric up to fail.
Having the Teric set to purple text, and the Descent to white text is not comparing apples to apples. Show the Teric with white text and compare it to the Descent with white text.
This is the worst and most misleading comparison i have ever seen 😌
Hi Patric, Did you read the actual review? And I'm curious why you dislike the comparison. Please elaborate.
A bit disappointing the MK2.... I prefer the design of the MK1, looks stronger with the metal boarder.... The MK2 is by far to expensive! Not worth to upgarde from MK1 to MK2 I would say.
I won't speak to the cost of the MK2 - it is expensive. However the metal bezel is titanium and having owned both the MK2 and MK1, this is as sturdy as the MK1.
