Call me old fashioned but I've not looked at my Fenix since I've had it and really thought "Oh I wish this screen was better, I'd be willing to trade 2 and half weeks of battery life for a better one." There are people (I'm assuming like yourself?) who do however and that is perfectly fine we all have different needs and requirements and what is great is that Garmin have made watches for BOTH sets of people.
I'm an Apple fan but why they refuse to make a watch with a lower quality screen and a massively improved battery life absolutely baffles me. I don't know anyone who is sports focussed who would choose one. I trained with a local triathlon club a couple of years ago and almost everyone had a Garmin, I don't recall seeing anyone with an Apple watch and I doubt much has changed. I can't believe they still don't have some kind of Body Battery/Strain/Training Readiness metric built in as standard and that you have to download a third party app to access this kind of data. Whoop, who seemed to pioneer this as far as I can tell, released their first band in 2015. 7 years later and Apple still haven't included it as standard, and for a device that they heavily market as being great for fitness. Absolutely ridiculous.
