Talk me out of my Garmin…
Depends on what you do for hobbies. If you are a person who runs daily with the intention of improving your speeds to compete then yeah, you’ll probably miss Garmin. But if you are looking to just be a better version of you and just get in shape and improve your fitness then AWU3 will help you do th

Bon finalement
Moi je l’aime. J’ai eu Forerunner 965, Epix 2 pro et Fenix 8, et du point de vu hardware c’est de loin ma préférée. Très légère (j’ai la titanium) et fine, elle est confortable et j’aime son look très épuré. L’écran est vraiment meilleur que celui de la Fenix 8 à mon avis, la batterie est également

Amazfit Active 3 Premium Comprehensive(1hour+) HR Review
Wow that accuracy is impressive👍️ . And good workout! Hitting 208 bpm surely wasn't easy 💪 I also have the Active 3 Premium that I got last week to play with Amazfit a bit, I'm about to sell my Fenix 8 Amoled due to deal breaking bugs with the running metrics since the firmware 22.35 and later. In an

Returning mine after ~2 weeks usage
I’m sorry but Garmin overall sleep detection is trash for me. I have tested multiple Garmin devices (right now Fenix 8) over the years against Apple Watches, Fitbits, Oura rings, etc. and Garmin seems to be always wrong. Example last week I laid in bed to watch TV for 2 hours before going to sleep a

Talk me out of my Garmin…
I also have a Fenix 8 and an AWU3. I ride 2-3 hours a day and hike a lot. I’ve been wearing some health tracker since they became available and have amassed a lot of data over the years. I used to swear by my Garmin (have had every iteration of Fenix). However I kinda feel like they are trying do to

FBA or Cirqa?
Io uso un fenix 8 solar e un fitbit air, per gli allenamenti uso garmin, per tutto il resto il fitbit, aggrego tutto su salute di apple e su bevel, riservando a garmin le metriche di allenamento e a fitbit sonno e cardio a riposo. Ottengo il massimo da entrambi. Avrei voluto il cirqa ma date le dime

Apple S7 to Garmin
I tried the Enduro 3, it works, and is the best Fenix 8 line model imho. Though I didn't like the reflections on the screen. It is useable, but I expected a much clearer display (an issue since Fenix 7). Battery is great, it feels light, and size is big but didn't feel big for me. Instinct 3 Solar T

Question for sprinters and general fast runners using Amazfit
I have the Fenix 8 Amoled 22.41. In version 22.35 and 22.38 tha pace would drop to 0.00 when running at 3:30 Min /Km or below, there are plenty of reports of this in the Garmin forums for the Fenix 8, Forerunner 970, Enduro 3. Treadmill calibration was also broken in these firmwares, but it was ackn

Fenix 9 to launch in ~3 weeks
Garmin gotta be kidding. I think they’re still King in fitness watches. (Coros is on the rise.) But they have too many lines and the generational changes aren’t enough to justify. Especially with their clunky UI. Gotta be a joke, man. I’m honestly done paying $1,000 for a watch too. I downgraded fro
