The Garmin Fenix 5X uses buttons rather than a touchscreen for interaction, and it should be awesome as a result. Unfortunately the interface is so damn slow to respond that you end up having to look at the watch when navigating or using functions anyway. Also the feel of the buttons is spongey - there's no satisfying click to tell you when the button has been pressed properly. Again, a factor that forces you to look at the screen.
Not recommended: expensive, somewhat ugly, painfully slow UI, and frankly not that awesome in any way other than a relatively impressive battery life (unless you're using GPS!).
