Smartwatch... Garmin or ?

Amazfit are great watches but in my experience very unreliable, I have had 3 , all had to be repaired under warranty.

So I went to Garmin , a Venu 2 , faultless performance and highly recommend.

None.

Pointless stat generators.

Totally agree. I run and swim for fun and to maintain a reasonable level of fitness for an FOC.
I want to enjoy my surroundings, look and listen out for hazards and be aware of my breathing rather than being distracted by stats.
I get a weekly time from Parkrun to indicate my progress, but I'm certainly aware of all the variables around different courses, weather diet, hydration, sleep quality etc.
When swimming, I count my lengths in my head, and stop once I've reached my target or run out of time.
 
I’ve got a Garmin Vivoactive 4. Only cost £90 and having already had an expensive Apple Watch, the Garmin is much better.
 
Garmin Fenix 5 and have a Apple Watch.

Garmin is a beast, does the lot!
 
I had a Fitbit 2 and 3 then the Mrs got an Apple Watch, I never ever imagined I would want one but then got one as a present and now love it. Not sure how it compares with Garmin for the sporty types but it does all the stuff I want and can take calls, set timers, pay for stuff etc . I am an Apple Watch convert.
