    Ridiculous to remove altimeter. How can take a major step backwards with a fitness watch and increase the price. Fail.

      But it doesn’t have barometer, will it affect anything?

      The 255 has an altimeter/barometer for measuring elevation. That's a big one for me.

    Looking to buy my first fitness watch, does it matter that I’m an Apple user but want a garmin ? What is the best gps watch at around £200-£400 budget please ?

      As a rule Garmin watches are sport watches first which some people prefer The limitation for Apple users is no messages reply and no ability to answer calls on your watch . Notifications work ok but all they do is notify ... Limited interactivity with what the notification content is. But for the length of battery time which can extend to a week or more I find it a more useful trade-off 🙏

      If you are serious about fitness go Garmin. Apple Watches are toys Garmins are tools

    Why is garmin putting amoled displays on all their watches.....all the watches are starting to blend together and become pointless...
    I wouldn't be surprised if the instinct gets a amoled display next....
    Really dumb in my opinion..
