Works way better on Android (former Note series user). On my iPhone in order for an activity to sync automatically, the Garmin Connect app must be open. On my Notes, the activity would sync immediately then when I opened garmin connect it was already there. Also on Android, you can select which notifications you want to receive on the watch. iPhone doesn't allow this.
It's probably Apple being Apple.

But still I would take a Garmin Fenix or Instinct Solar over an Apple Watch all day. Why would I need another phone on my wrist? And that you'll have to charge every night? Then Apple will make you feel like a loser if you don't upgrade the next year

I think the S just means its 40mm face instead of 45mm, but I may be wrong.

It depends on what is your application. What features are important to you (the must vs would be nice), what are you willing to sacrifice for other features or price, etc.
Stylsh: Vivoactive or Venu
Running: Forerunner
Outdoor: Instinct
Multi-sport fancy: Fenix
Each line, in turn has versions. The higher the number, the more you pay and get.

It's a game and we are to decide if we want to play it...
Sale on BuyDig will last for minutes. The rest of retailers may offer the same (or even lower) price or not...
Pull the trigger or sit tight and hope that better retailers will follow suit (especially Target and Amazon with their 5% cash back)?
Decisions, decisions....
All major sellers have matched the price now- Walmart, Amazon, BestBuy, Kohl's etc.
Note that only BuyDig has full color options available plus free CPS 3 Year Accidental Repair Plan Extended Warranty under $250.00. I read some reviews about CPS and seems legit!

Adding Vivoactive 4 and checking 3yr warranty on Buydig and warranty is still showing up as $60. You have to select the CPS warranty in the suggested items below the watch to get the discounted warranty. Shows as:


CPS 3 Year Accidental Repair Plan Extended Warranty under $250.00

If you read Amazon reviews, they are horrible... Now I have my doubts: should I cancel my BigDig order and purchase it from more reputable company?....

Thanks, I went with the Instinct Solar from Amazon. It will be here tomorrow. I hate Amazon reviews though. I always read the bad reviews first and scares me, then I see 25k reviews 84% 5 star and 9% 4 star I think I should be good. Also Amazon groups the Instincts (Std and Solar) together, so you have to check the reviewers description to see what version they actually got. The Instinct and Instinct Solar are two very different watches and not just because of the solar, it's almost a Instinct 2.0 with Solar.

FYI I just walked out of REI paying $199.99 for Garmin Instinct Solar. The 20% member coupon worked even though it was on sale for $250. Looked at the Fenix 6 but the build quality of my Fenix 3 HR titanium is much better

What's the 20% off Member coupon? Is it available online?
I am debating between Solar Instinct, VA4 and Fenix 6 Multisport.

They have 20% off for members with coupon code "GEARUP2021" at checkout through November 22 to save 20% on one full-price item and/or an extra 20% on one REI Outlet item.
https://www.rei.com/coupon

I tried it online with instinct and with fenix, and it did not work.. said that this items are not eligible with this code..
I guess you can get lucky if you go there in person..

Amazon has a price of $240 but without the additional warranty
https://www.amazon.com/Garmin-Instinct-Solar-Powered-Smartwatch-Monitoring/dp/B089YVVLSW/ref=sr_1_3?... [amazon.com]
If you have Amazon CC, you get 10% cash back, making it $225. If you add 3-years warranty from Asurion, you're coming to $258.
It's $8 more than BuyDig sale price, but your tracker and warranty protection are from more reliable companies.
My BuyDig order was shipped, but I think I'll return it and will go with Amazon (providing price stays the same)

There is no 10% cash back that shows up for me
