Me too. My concern is that we will be tethered to Google once they switch us. I am looking for custom high/low HR alerts and ideally workout HR-zone alerts, during exercise and my Luxe doesn’t offer that. Garmin does but don’t want a bulky watch. Hmmm.

I bought a fitbit luxe off backmarket for less than $50 this year. It's simple, but it tracks swims.

My wife also has the Luxe, mainly because she has small wrists. I've tried to talk her into replacing it with a Lily, but no luck so far. I have a Forerunner 955 and I put it on her once, it was almost comically huge :)  It's good to hear someone made the transition and didn't regret it!

I hate my Samsung Galaxy smart watch. Mine wouldn’t update properly (software connecting issue) and the battery would drain fast. For context, I’ve had 2-3 fitbits & 1 Garmin. Garmin is the most consistent and longest battery life. Fitbit finally died because it stopped updating the software or bugging (had the luxe for years til last year).

My Fitbit luxe is very small.

Hello! I'm looking for a fitness watch that is accurate and has stable connection with the phone. I used to have the Fitbit Luxe, but that kept on shutting down regularly for no reason, and so bought the Garmin Venu Sq 2. Currently, the Garmin keeps on disconnecting from my phone... so I'm looking to get a new Fitness Watch. I want it to have accurate measures (My Garmin once said that my heart beat was 160bpm, when I measured it with my hand, and it was actually 90bpm), and a stable connection. Any recommendations? Thank you so much for reading this!
