    I've been a Garmin user since 2011 and battery life, Garmin Connect, having a decade of data and the buttons are just a few of the things that are great about it. I'm in the Apple ecosystem for everything else but their watch just isn't that great if you're fitness-focused.

    I've been using Garmin daily for more than 15 years. I just got the Ultra 2. It is difficult in the beginning, I do lose just a big in workouts, but the gains are much more. Life doesn't start when you start your workout and doesn't stop when you click stop.

    You can reply to texts from the Garmin Fenix (and Epix) just not with an Apple phone because apple is scared of the competitor so they block that ability.

    Garmin trumps the AWU in just being a watch. Garmin is best for people who want health data and a watch, I would hardly call it a smartwatch but that’s the point. I don’t need constant notifications on my wrist or the ability to ask questions to my watch, people have been so reliant on technology it’s insane. I’ve had Apple watches from series 3 to series 6 and it sucked. it’s so nice to have a watch that just works and doesn’t need to be charged all the time. When did we become so attached to our phones that we need basically a small phone on our wrist. Garmin all day

    If you want less "bland" watchfaces go for the Epix Pro. Exacly the same but AMOLED dusplay like the Apple Watch. Should still be good for around a week of use with Always On display enabled

    I have the Ultra 2 and the Epix Pro 2. I agree with you that the Garmin seems more geared towards extreme athletes which is the main reason why it’s overkill for a runner of my caliber. I’m just someone that’s trying to be health conscious and be active. With that being said. The Ultra 2 is more than enough for someone like me, an average runner that needs something to track my health journey with a great heart rate sensor and gps that’s on par with any Garmin. The Ultra will definitely last a marathon and then some even with music playing. It could even last a 100K race but not a 100 miler which is still beyond impressive for an Apple Watch. I run maybe 5-7 hours a week and after that. Just wearing it as a smartwatch, the Garmin is totally useless. But if you’re a serious athlete the Garmin is extreme bliss.

      @@commonmadeholy only when I run. Basically I take the Ultra and use it for the LTE and music plus the Garmin and leave my phone at home. But to be honest, if I had to leave out with only one watch. It would definitely be the Ultra because of the LTE connection. But I couldn’t say the same about the Epix Pro. Even though it has music, if I were to fall or have a medical emergency. There would be no way to call for help. It has incident detection, but it only works with your phone connected. So the Ultra is a jack of all trades but the Garmin to me is just all about sports and not an every day wear watch. Even though Garmin insists on calling it a smartwatch.

    I have turned all the "smart watch" features _(notifications)_ on my Garmin Fenix 6 off because I really do not need _(nor do I think that it is healthy)_ to carry my e-mails, messages and all that noise with me on my wrist.
    If u need an iPhone on your wrist _(and also own an iPhone)_ then buy the Apple Watch
    If you don't own an iPhone dont buy the Apple Watch _(no joy for Android users)_
    If you need a proper outdoor/sports watch, buy a Garmin Fenix _(and maybe combine it with the HRM-Pro, which I love)_

    Smart watch is not a training watch. Yes Ultra does the job but where do you do your analysis? Health just gathers data so it’s useless. Or you buy 3rd party app, on top of already expensive watch. All that is included with Garmin.

    I don’t truly understand why people are comparing the high hand Harmon as ugly as it is because the Apple Watch Ultra is just an Apple Watch series 9 with a bigger battery and things that people will use 2 times in their life like the diving things … why not comparing with the 965 … it does all the same
    It’s not like Apple Watch people are adventurous at all, most of them are city based !
