Funny that you start off by criticizing Garmin for something as unimportant as their color options. You probably should leave those types of comments out of your reviews. You probably should not criticize the Garmin default watch face when comparing it to the Casio because the Garmin watchface can be changed and customized way more.
@alphonsecadieux612724 күн бұрын
Maybe so for customization points for Garmin but too much info on the screen also reduce battery life. So I stick to my comments.

I like that garmin gives you the option to use the wings or the straps. I know casio is doing integrations with polar but I've had polar watches before and really found the data and interface lacking compared to Garmin. Also I really feel like companies need to fully invest in a direction otherwise they drop support eventually. The polar I had had android wear integration but then after a while they stop updating and it gets dropped. And price wise...Even the instinct 2X solar is much cheaper than the casio. has more features ( in terms of tracking activities) and my previous garmin lasted for years so I know I can trust them for support and even for walk-in centers.

Incomparable. G-Shock is not near Garmin in terms of features. It is also millitary tested. G-Shocks is also used in millitary because they are rough, and cheap. If they break you just buy a new one. Casio always lacks functions and then sell a new one with one more function. Garmin puts ut all in the watch.

If you're not deep into all of the specific activities of the garmin, I'd go with the casio. It's cool for an 18 year old and will and stands appart from the rest of the crowd. It is big but doesn't wear that big, as it's not bigger than most g-shocks out there! But if you want better tracking, better support and community, go with the instinct 2.
