For the longest time I thought Apple watches were just really obnoxious...but I ended up getting a good deal on the new SE model so I bought it and I hate to say it but...I love this thing! And especially cause I work out so much - it's been so satisfying seeing my workout data in real time.
I bought a Garmin vivoactive 4 a while back and I never wear it because the screen sucks as a normal watch :(
I've been contemplating buying one of the newer watches because I saw them with their screens on at JB HiFi and they looked incredible. They were the Samsung ones I think. Just another toy to waste money on though. I should sell some stuff.
Yeah I've played with the faces etc but the screen quality is just too low for what I'd like. Nowhere near bright enough too. Functionally for fitness purposes it's fine but it doesn't do the other things a smart watch should do very well.
I got an apple watch, just can't be bothered , I like to be as low tech as possible, like to keep the work for my brain simple and with few steps
so, it's a nice day and I'm going for a longish walk, I have no idea how many steps I'll be doing but walking in the mild sun is good, that much I know :) I do about 10 hours of walking a week, I might not be fast, I might not get puffed but it's better than driving
Your watch will tell you how many you do. Before I'd walk everywhere without thinking too much about it. Now I walk with a bit of pace to get my heart rate up because after doing some research I found walking isn't really exercise, it's just living. If you set it up then trust me it will help you on your health journey.
I'm not going on any journey at all, let alone a health journey 🙄🙄🙄 fuck I hate the word journey with a passion. My aim is to relieve stress and ease tension in my back muscles. I also like to take a relaxing walk and look at the world around me .
I know how the watches work 🙄🙄🙄 I also know there is no fucking way in hell I'm hooking my shit up to the net, it's why I threw my fitbit away

the real mvp is being able to ping your phone when you can't find it. You! Phone! Make noises so I can locate you!
I love my garmin. Never thought I'd use it for exercise but here's little old me accepting challenges and getting a little buzz when I get a badge.

I encourage you to give it another go. You can change watch faces and settings. If you still don't like it then think about getting rid of it.

I apologise if I overstepped.
