You can’t convince me Garmin is better than Apple
Ha! I've been an Apple Watch user since they came out. I had some FOMO with my ultrarunner husband and daughter with their Garmins, so I got exactly that Epix Pro Gen 2. It lasted maybe 3 hours, and I hated it so much I returned it right away. I barely got through setting it up and knew it wasn't fo

Buy fenix 8 or wait for fenix 9
I’m waiting, the 8 processor is so slow and dated. The screen takes longer to turn on than my Epix gen 2 (non pro) does. IMO it’s half baked for what they cost these days. That being said, if I needed a new Garmin right now I would still buy it lol.

Exact same. Bought the Epix Pro Gen 2, and eight months later went back to the AWU3 once it came out. I prefer the AW, but different strokes for different folks

Amoled regret
I did the same. Went from Fenix 5 to EPIX Gen 2 and quickly back to Fenix 7 Sapphire Solar. I really like the MIP

Men who have cut out alcohol for health reasons (not because you're an alcoholic), what is your story?
lol I got a watch when I started running as well, and now I refuse to actually log my runs on the watch. Not sure what you have, but I have a garmin epix 2 and what frustrates me so much is the watch will judge my run and give me an endurance score based on the first quarter mile of my run. I genera

Which Smartwatch should I choose between the amazfit balance 2, the garmin fr 165 and the fr 255
I tested Garmin Epix 2 Pro and the Balance 2 for a month for running and sleeping. I decided to keep the balance and sold the Garmin. Garmin app is really bad, not intuitive at all, hard to find things, etc. Zepp is more intuitive. Still need some work on the algorithms but it works just fine. balan

Back in coros... and i m happy!!!
I’m in the same boat. I had Epix Pro Gen 2 and got the Coros Pace Pro, and love it. I wouldn’t go back to Garmin. One - their prices are ridiculous, and, Two - as you say to much useless data. Coros is streamlined and has the necessary data you need. I used the nylon strap and still felt uncomfortab

Just upgraded from AWU2 to Fenix 8. Officially joining the club!
I have the same situation - the switch from Apple to Garmin. Been using Epix Pro Gen 2 51mm for a few weeks with AWU2 switching and testing. I have already sold Epix - now it’s time for AWU2 to buy the Fenix 8 47mm with exact model. The 51mm were heavy and the software was little bit sluggish. The A

Can we agree?
WARNING - this is not going to be a popular POV, but I am trying to bring a balanced perspective to this whole view that companies out there owe us future upgrades that were never part of what has been promised. ---- I saw a post about this earlier where the poster had mentioned that the hardware be
