Watch ultra 2 has arrived today... Love it 💪

We all have our preferences. Apple ultra are good watches too... Maybe you should consider one if you prefer it. Garmin, traditionally circular, has launched the Venu X1 which has a rectangular and very visible screen too.

Coros NOMAD - Strap issue

You have convinced me, I'll switch with Nylon. I found cheap Nylon like in Garmin Venu X1 which does not have additional lugs. And my Nomad is lighters now. What Nylon band did you use, is it Coros official one?

Is it true the UW 3 cannot continuously track & display my heart rate?

I think that if Apple ever allowed real text message integration with Garmin watches, I’d end up going with a Fenix. They are great watches that do the health stuff right and have great battery life. Or maybe the Venu X1. I like the square form factor better than round. And I do like Apple’s magsafe

Impatiently awaiting the arrival of BioCharge on my T-Rex 3

Your probably right. If they add more compatible scales to the Zepp app and fitness age as well. They will sell a lot of watches. I like the look of the Garmin Venu x1 but would never pay £600 for a watch

Honestly, no glowing smartwatch screen can compete with this vibe

Longest run I've had with a non Fenix device was the FR 965. But I always go back to Fenix. Current daily is Fenix 7s Pro then I use my Fenix 8 47mm AMOLED for workouts because it's easier to log weights on and it's nice having a bigger vibrant screen/maps for hiking/kayaking. My answer would have t

Meine Erfahrungen mit dem Whoop Tracker

Habe aktuell die Garmin Venu X1. Hatte irgendwann keinen Bock mehr auf die dicken schweren 51mm Klötze und wollte was "schöneres" mit annähernd der gleichen Technik und Funktionalität, wobei man etwas Abstriche machen musste, was die Akkulaufzeit angeht. Aber damit konnte ich leben.

Best "rectangular" shaped SW that I can develop my own apps to?

The Garmin Venu sq2 is at end of life in garmin's product lines. The Venu X1 is the square face they are supporting now. Wife wants a square replacement for her old versa and the sq2 was a strong contender but I read that soon the app support will be dropped. X1 is still pricey at $699 tho The trend

I don't get the Garmin Hype

You should have considered a Venu X1. Half as thin as the AWU, bigger screen, and some of the Garmin goodness (battery life sucks though, for a Garmin that is)

Switching from Garmin to Apple Watch – Does automatic activity syncing to Komoot work?

Plot twist: I ended up sticking with Garmin after all 😅 The truth is, I never actually made the switch. What I was really looking for was a stylish everyday smartwatch that would also let me track things like walks with my dog without any hassle. I wanted something simple and convenient rather than

Notification font really small

I did the same. Loved the Apex 4 but I could not read the notifications. The font is way too small. It seems ok on my Vertix 2 but not legible on the Apex. I have since purchased two Garmin watches, Tactix 8 and Venu X1. Fonts on both are crystal clear and large enough to read, plus I can adjust the
