Yeah I actually just got Fenix 7 pro solar (non-sapphire) because of that. My Vivoactive 4's battery died, Garmin offered a replacement in Vivoactive 5 but thst watch just looks plasticky to me so I went and got the "older" Fenix. I don't need all the bells and whistles, but I will admit I have NEVER EXPECTED to use the flashlight so much haha
I second the vivo active 5, and agree with everything you said, but I do really like it for weight lifting. The ability to build your own workouts is nice.
I will say, the auto rep counter isn't the best, but I don't find it that difficult to adjust after a set. You can also send the workout live to your phone, so you can adjust there as well.
I did spring for Garmin Connect+ ($99 CAD a year), so it also allows nutrition tracking, which entirely replaces MyFitnessPal for macro tracking.
Overall I think it's perfect for most people's needs.

Long battery; but wrist HR tracking is inconsistent.
