minus-squarearamova@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 year agoGarmin watches are semi-smart and have great sensors. My Epix 2 Sapphire runs for 11 days on a charge as well.

minus-squareraptore39@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 year agoGarmin Instinct 2 Solar gives me 31 days on a full charge if it doesn’t get any sunlight. It is smart enough to vibrate me awake without waking my partner and receive notifications, no matter what Android/iOS phone I use. What were your main gripes with the Pixel watch?

On Android can reply with canned responses set up in the Connect app GPS tracking during workouts without having to have phone within range, has heart rate, sleep tracking and more Instinct can control media (play/pause/skip) when phone is in range, though the Forerunner music can store music to play via Bluetooth headphones No LTE/eSIM support on any of them that I know of Best feature for me by far is the time is always visible and in fact is even more visible in direct sunlight
