My Swatch has a battery life that makes any Garmin on the market seem pathetic. Is it fair to compare the two on battery life?

Oh 'all' of those zero specific things you mentioned impact battery life? Ok.

Anyway, I don't even care what the battery life is - my initial comment in this chain is replying to a guy who didn't mention any of these elusive (apparently taboo to name) missing features - they literally just tried to argue that lower batter life is an advantage because they can't keep a routine otherwise. Pointing out how absurd this reasoning is seems to trigger a bunch of other apple fanboys, which is just hilarious tbh.

Lower battery life literally doesn't matter if you can charge it in the time it takes you to get ready in the morning. It has zero impact on usability.

The maximum battery lives advertised on sites are literally for doing nothing anyhow. My Garmin definitely does not have a multi day charge when I'm using it to track swimming.

You are doing the tech equivalent to her knees are too pointy.

What are you doing with your apple watch that requires additional processing power?

> screen size and quality

Many watches have larger screens, Apple screen quality is among the best - true.

> active monitoring quality

I mean... garmin beats apple hands down, so do other brands.

> AOD

Almost every modern smart watch has this?

Cool story bro.

Using apps on it. If all you want is the time and a heart rate monitor than yeah apple watch isn't for you.

>I mean... garmin beats apple hands down, so do other brands.

I meant day to day active monitoring not when you're in a workout.

>Almost every modern smart watch has this?

Yes and go check their battery life differences when it's turned on.

>'Having lower RAM literally doesn't matter if you can just use less.'

I can charge it when it's not needed.

You can also run one app at a time save on RAM.
