Would love to know what you guys think and your reasoning for it. I’m starting to see a lot of Apple Watches/Fitbits/Galaxy Watches in my area compared to more traditional timepieces.

    Smart watches and privacy don’t go hand in hand. Also dont want to own another product that i need to worry about charging. But if i am going to buy one ever, it would be garmin. I heard pretty good things about it here in europe.

      Idk, the Garmin Connect App is also not great in terms of privacy. And so far, only one Garmin product works with Gadgetbridge

          True, I’ve just checked up on that. The devices themselves don’t do anything creepy, but the app contains a few trackers according to Exodus Privacy, which is not ideal if you want to use everything to its full extent
