[Apple] Introducing Apple Watch Ultra 3

As a Garmin user, to be honest I'm really sad about direction that Garmin is taking. Prices went up, at least here in PL, Fenix 8 Pro Amoled costs 1.5x of Apple Watch Ultra 3, while to use Satellite connection you need to have 9eur/month subscription (when apple provides it for 2 years for free). Al

I left Garmin!

I’m now part of Team Coros watches as well. I got myself the Coros Pace Pro. Previously, I had the Garmin Fenix 7X, Forerunner 965, Fenix 8 AMOLED, and Enduro 3. I find Garmin completely overloaded; most of the data they analyze is not really useful, like “Stamina,” just to name one example. Additio

No rucking for Fenix 7 pro

https://www.reddit.com/r/Garmin/s/NNYCBRWfdh After the launch of the Fenix ​​8, the Fenix ​​7 (and 7 Pro) practically stopped receiving new features. The same thing is happening now with the Forerunner 955 and 965 after Garmin released the Forerunner 970.

Watch OS 26

Fyi if you check r/garmin & r/garminwatches, battery life is better for sure but they tend to drop support on their watches quickly. Eg. Epix 2 Pro / Fenix 7 didn’t get the new UI, isn’t getting new features, Forerunner 965 isn’t getting a lot of new features after the release of the 970, and they’r

Amazfit vs Garmin

As a owner of several Garmin watches over years, currently have a Forerunner 965 I strongly disagree regarding the daily suggested workouts, they are mostly a joke. Garmin software is also so so, and the connect app is a mess. Garmin sleep tracking another weakness. So instead go for a Forerunner 96

Will the Epix & Fenix 7 be left behind?

I’ve had a bunch of Garmin watches, mainly the Fenix line. Over the years older versions continued to get software features & updates well into the future. With the Fenix 8 and the change in coding with the new software, and with older watches (forerunner 955/965 getting features while the Epix Pro

Still undecided... Polar Vantage V3 or Garmin Forerunner 965?

I don't know what would be a better option. I just run... I want an AMOLED display, useful yet well presented metrics related to running, recovery and wellbeing.

Garmin seems to offer more features, however I much prefer elegant and robust look of Polar watches. Yet Polar financial situa

Garmin Walking activities showing up as Running in Runalyze – any fix?

Hi everyone :-)

I recently connected my Runalyze account with Garmin Connect and track my activities with the Forerunner 965. Besides running, I also do a lot of walking activities.

The issue is that all my walking activities are imported into Runalyze as running activities. Since walking is obvi

Garmin Forerunner 965 Issues after recent updated

My Garmin has been great for the last year and a half. Since the most recent update, the heart rate during exercises is poor at best. I also noticed that the watch is constantly syncing to my phone and I get a push notification on my phone.

Is anyone else noticing these issues, or are there othe
