A Critical Look at the Apple Watch and Why Coros is a better Backup
As an early adopter it makes perfect sense for me to have played with an Apple Watch but it doesn’t make sense that I would keep wearing it. The reason for it being absurd for me to wear an Apple watch is primarily that I managed to damage a screen on an Apple watch indoor climbing many, many years ago.
The second reason is that I already wore a Suunto watch, followed by Apple, and then Garmin, and then Coros, and Garmin, Suunto and Coros fill the niche I want them for. I want a fitness tracker rather than a smart watch. I want step counting, run tracking, cycling, and more. I rarely use IM functions. I sometimes check the weather but every modern fitness watch offers this, with built in thermometers, barometers and more.
