I second the Coros Pace comment. I have the Pace 2. I like everything about it - smaller size, light, long time between charges, training plans, bread crumb navigation.
My only complaint is no ski modes but they are said to be on the way.
Good review of Pace 2: https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2020/09/coros-pace-2-in-depth-review-multisport-running-power.html
People seem to state it lacks some smartwatch functionalities, is that very different than the garmin models? Like, syncing google calender or latest incoming wapp message so you do not have to pick up your phone would be nice, but it does not feel like a necessity. Running is of a higher priority.
My Pace 2 doesn't do Google calendar, or any calendar other than my training calendar. It can give notifications from the phone, but I don't use that function.
The training calendar can receive plans built out imported from training peaks, the coros app/website, and probably some others. I use it constantly.
Two things about the 3 give me pause: 1) no ANT+; 2) It can store and play music but, I have read, only mp3s (no FLAC or ogg or streaming.)
