I do not care about the dull 64 color screen or lack of fancy features. This was the target buyer of a Fenix watch until the Fenix 6 or even 7 came out. If Garmin is failing now, it's because they are trying to be more like Apple or Samsung, add more of those features, rather than focusing on what their core target buyer for a decade need or care about.
So now, the price is going up at an insane pace and features are added that I have no need for, which only make it more sluggish and prone to failure. I understand that I am one person, but there are many like me. For what it's worth, the Fenix 6 Pro was the best watch I ever owned, purchased on a father's day sale after it came out for $379 and only replaced it when the battery could no longer hold a charge long enough to serve my needs. But by modern day standards and expectations as those above, the Fenix 6 pro would be considered trash.
So my point here is that you should not buy a Fenix (or really build one) hoping it would perform like the Apple watch just like you shouldn't buy a 4Runner wishing you could take it to the track and make sharp turns at 100mph. Just my 2c

Considering the same but make sure you look up reviews on the Felix 7 screen compared to the Elix
Coming from an Apple Watch I wouldn't be happy with a dull 64 color screen. Hoping we get some better deals for prime "day"

I simply cannot comprehend such purchase decisions or opinions. You cannot expect a Fenix (any generation) to serve the same purpose and offer the same features as an Apple watch. I use mine for 1 month expeditions in the mountains, for triathlons, for daily training without the need for daily charging, for tracking all these things, and much more. I need extreme battery life, reliability, low risk of damage, and accuracy before anything else. Mine literally only comes off for charging and I do a lot with my hands. It has taken a beating yet still works.

I think you missed the whole point that I was making in response to the other post. My Garmin watch with a mip screen (now a 7 pro but any of them) cannot take calls or doesn't have a bright, colorful screen and there are other differences. But my point is that it was and is what I need and what I have been using for a long time. It is what got me to the top of 5 of the 7 summits and many other frozen peaks, or to the end of many triathlons and ultra marathons or rock climbing. And I do a lot with my hands. I never cared if I got some cement or dirt or paint over spray on it , it will come off. An apple watch would and could not have done that. Nor a Samsung watch or any other watch. I see the apple watch (and could me wrong here) as a daily driver for the normal person who wants a device that can do it all, do it well, and be fashionable at the same time. Not to mention that an apple of watch only works in the Apple ecosystem which not everyone is a part of.
I read it as "we will charge your card when we ship it and not before". So that is a positive in my book. Hope you get it. Heck of a deal!

I found their customer service to be lacking. I was expecting more since I've heard good things from more than one person.
Maybe they pull out more stops if you buy a more expensive watch from them.
