I would not put them in same category. Apple and Samsung make smartwatches. Garmin is offering sportwatches. If Garmin is really trying to compete with smartwatches, they are dumb.

Garmin is being eaten alive by Apple and Samsung, it’s their last grasp for some air. They refused to change their business model for a decade and it’s a payback time.

Garmin is not trying to compete, but Apple and Samsung came and took the market by storm.

Which is odd because their stuff is really good for sensors, and has weeks of battery life vs other smartwatches that struggle to last a day.

Months of battery on their new models and last gen models.

They’re stuck with 1990-s mentality and refuse to change, sadly.

What would you like them to add?

I don’t want them to add anything, I want them to switch from making a thousand models and selling software features as hardware revisions to making one model which can go do everything and to have a proper app store instead of a joke they have right now.
