I want fitness and no touchscreen. That means the Fenix 6. Realistically, I like my Forerunner 245 a lot -- but I use it primarily for running, as a watch, and to notify me.
If you want to replicate a lot of phone functions on your watch, get the newest WearOS watch, probably the Galaxy 4.
The biggest things people fail to care about is the battery and screen. Garmin has these done right. It is like an e-ink display. They make the battery last a week and are readable without a backlight until there is very dim light. My backlight is off unless I turn it on manually (ala indiglo) or am exercising between sunset and sunrise (it auto-ons only in those circumstances).
I hope this helps you figure it out.
A phone on my wrist is NOT ideal, even if it is the highest-end watch.

for me "always on display" is a must. i can't stand having to always touch the display to see the time. functionally they are the same so i prefer a better battery life with "always on display"

But happy to say that I've never had issues with my bluetooth headphones and I've paired both AirPods and another set of BT earbuds.
This is the cheapest I've seen the VA4 and it's the same price I got it for last time.
