I have been using the Mi Band for years which I generally like, although it’s quite a simple device

Oh, that’s interesting. I was under the impression that Garmin was best for the actual fitness stuff, but this is good to know

Nah you’re right and this person has obviously never used a Garmin.

The Apple Watch is a great smartwatch though and solid for sports. My wife has one and loves it. I’m on the Garmin side, so we’re always comparing.

You mean that you didn’t bother to read my comment properly before personally attacking me. Let me guess, you’re from Reddit.

Garmins are smart fitness watches, not smart watches.

I have a forerunner 255 and it’s amazing for hiking and running which is what I do most times. I can also take calls and see notifications which is all I need and the battery life is amazing.

I only cycle, so I couldn’t comment on the other apps.
