Watch Series 11

Sadly, rep counting requires a lot of data and model training with said data that none of the sportswatch brands really seems to have available or done, not even Garmin. It's sad, because recognizing a set, the correct exercise and even number of reps works very accurately on an Apple Watch in my ex

AWU will provide you a longer battery life. I hike and I have it, and as a casual hiker I have never run out of battery. AW11 should be enough for you until this hobby gets serious. WorkOutDoors IS THE APP, Alltrails and others sucks for Apple Watch. If you like to plan the hikes, download the GPX f

Given the hardware release cadence I expect that AW11 will look exactly the same as AW10 and the only major hardware difference will be a significantly more powerful SoC to handle on-device Apple Intelligence. And, obviously, the new watch will include the new Apple modem. The only hardware change t

After being worried for 3 years about exactly this, I just got my Apple Watch last week.And honestly: I‘m pretty certain I won’t take it off anymore.

For your situation, honestly, the 100 dollar discount on Apple Watch Series 11 is the practical move if it has the health features you want. Apple Watch Series 12 may be better, but buying in Korea later also means waiting, likely paying launch pricing, and gambling on features you have not seen. I'

From that old watch, honestly, almost any current model will feel like a real upgrade. For your use, Apple Watch Series 11 is the clean pick because battery, calls, workout tracking, and health sensors all move forward without making the choice complicated. If cost matters more, Apple Watch SE can c

I also have Fenix 8 and a AW8, and for training I prefer the Apple Watch because Garmin is to limited. For Weight Lifting I use Hevy, for Running Runna, for Hyrox Roxfit. The Build in Stuff on Garmin come not even close to these apps. And worst off all, that expensive Garmin gets no feature updates

Get the ultra 3 if you want it to do both apple watch things and marathon things
