vívosmart® 3

Get the mk2i or 3i if you’re into diving. The dive computer is on par with the best tec dive computers. I’m an instructor and my mk2i is always on my wrist

I got the Garmin Vivo 3 to replace a FitBit before I started back into trail running. It does great, but it is a smart watch first, and a sports watch second. It also doesn’t have a dedicated trail run activity, but I just modified and copied the run feature and downloaded a trail run app for the info I wanted. I’m looking to upgrade whenever I can convince my wife it’s necessary lol

Just switched from an AWU to a Garmin instinct 3 and have no regrets so far, having owned a series 3 and 6 prior to the ultra there really isn’t anything I miss. Went with the Amoled version after a very brief stint with a Coros nomad as I didn’t feel the MIP display was right for me, still checks all the boxes and the significant upgrade to battery is a big bonus

Apple watch is the best smartwatch, Garmin is the best sportwatch. If your runs are under xhours, than go for the AW; if you are going to train seriously, Garmin all the way

I have used AW, Garmin, Polar and Suunto and AW is by far the worst sportwatch. After switching back to Polar after AW the quality of life improved immediately by not having to charge the thing more than once a week.

Garmin is a sportwatch with some smart features. Apple Watch is the opposite. The battery of Apple Watch is a nightmare, I always forget to charge Apple Watch, i think a Watch should be a help no another task.

Moonwatch SS and a Garmin vivosmart daily. The vivosmart is small and discrete. It gives me simple notifications, battery life is multi day, and does basic health tracking. Doesn’t feel like I am dual watching. Garmin Fenix 6 when I am exercising or doing something manual. Large readable, light to wear and hardy. No risk of damage for the nice watch.

This is what I do. I have a Garmin Fenix as my sports watch and switch to the Vivosmart when I am wearing my Speedy.
