I'm a cyclist, so I use a dedicated cycling computer (currently a Karoo Hammerhead)
If y'all want good takes on fitness trackers, check out DC Rainmaker
Been using the Apple Watch for the past 3 years (currently on the Ultra) and have been loving it. I’m not a serious athlete but use it to track my daily walks/runs. It keeps me honest and active.
Plus I have a data line for my watch so I can ditch my phone and still talk, text, and check emails as needed. I hate to admit it but I have completed many meetings with just my Apple Watch + AirPods while on a run/walk.
Also, it acts as a wallet replacement for the most part. ~8 out of 10 times I can tap and pay with my watch. I only keep 1 physical card and my state ID on me.
I recently upgraded from a Fenix 3 to a 6x and i love it, which actually makes me use it way more ❤️ Suddenly dropped the idea of trying out mainstream alternatives.
I like fitbit but that’s because I basically strictly use it for calorie counting. The battery life is good enough that I just charge it when I’m in the shower and it’ll never die on me.
Coros Pace 2. Cheaper than the entry level Garmin and just as capable.
I've had a Garmin vivofit 3 unsmart watch since 2017. I've replaced the band and battery a few times but it's been a pretty good tracker. the watch battery has been a great feature as I don't have to charge it, just replace it once a year or so.
I loved Wear OS from Fossil before I switched to Linux phone.
I'll wear my Pebble Time Round until it disintegrates
