My 3.5 year old Garmin can easily track activity for 18 hours with normal GPS mode (high accuracy) and probably much longer with power saving (less frequent data recording).
I don't think it's a great smartwatch, but I don't know because the last thing I need in my life is a device on my wrist with push notifications.
- pilsetnieks 5y agoIf there's one problem I have with Garmin, it's that I open the watch page on their website and I'm presented with a wall of products (I counted 27 different watches.) In addition to that what should be just a different app is a distinct product. If I'm a swimmer who also plays golf, I need two watches. If I also run, I need another. If I also want a smart watch that looks good, I need a fourth. That part Apple does get right.

AFAIK Apple's watch that does everything is virtually comparable to the "watch that looks good" in its running analytics, cycling features, swimming connectivity, etc. Put another way, the mid-tier and above running-focused Garmin devices (can't speak for the other sports) should not be considered to be in the same class as an Apple watch for running.
