Any gone from Garmin back to AW? If so why?

I started with an Apple Watch, moved to a Fenix 6, then went back and forth between different watches for a while before eventually settling on the Apple Watch Ultra 2. Since then, I’ve tried the Fenix 7, Instinct, and several others.But I always end up coming back to my AWU2.Why? Convenience. The A

We're not customers anymore, we're users: a 4-year timeline of Apple flagship smartwatch

You keep saying the original Apple Watch “should” inherit features that the hardware was not designed for. But the features introduced with AW2 (like sleep apnea detection) are dependent on the processing power & architecture of the S9 chip’s neural engine. Yes, AWU2 has mostly the same sensors, but

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

New to nothing ecosystem

The ecosystem as it stands is pretty bare, your only real options are the phones and headphones/earbuds (both of which are solid products). You can obviously use any Bluetooth device with the phones, so you aren't forced to buy in completely. They also make the CMF Watches, which may or may not meet

It’s not my fault. I literally *can’t* have a smartphone.

Consider getting an Apple Watch, especially if you can afford and Ultra with LTE connectivity. I've used the AWU2 as a dumbphone before and it generally works very well, while being just about impossible to lose or have stolen.

PSA: smart key card and digital key problem

Can I ask what phone you have? I have an iPhone 12 Mini and an Apple Watch Ultra 2 and my watch is also WAY more responsive. I thought it's because of my old phone...

Switching from AWU1 to Instinct 3 (or vice versa). Any regrets regarding data accuracy?

Isn't perfect but it works. I don't see the point really unless you want to swap devices back and forth and use Bevel as the hub, why deal with it otherwise when everything you need is in Garmin natively. Whoop also suing Bevel so we'll see what happens there, in the meantime it makes more sense as

TinyPod Review - Day 1

I briefly addressed that in my review. I used to wear this as a watch but since switched to a Garmin. When I was still using my AWU2 as a watch, I did as you mentioned and it worked well. So this is suitable for those who have an Apple Watch but for whatever reason don’t want to wear it on their wri

Pixel watch 4 speed question

Update: I realized why mine was stuttering, I was using a third party face and that causes it. I just removed it and went back to a standard face and it's snappy again. I find the watch to just be average at speed. It stutters on things like when I go to delete an email or or mark a message as read

Realistically, how long does your Apple Watch Ultra 2 battery last?

That's a great feature. Unfortunately, this feature is not available in Apple Watch Ultra 2, so I cannot set a maximum limit of 80% every time. The best I can do is rely on optimized charging.
