Pros & Cons
Pros
Comfortable, large yet light on the wrist. Provides many options for exercise watch faces; can also be customized to your liking. Has the best weightlifting profile i've ever seen on a watch.
Cons
The sleep tracker is just as useless. The 'advanced' sleep algorithms they switched to after release are still bad. The pulse ox is finicky at best.
Training status always says unproductive no matter what you do. Garmin is not helpful resolving battery drainage issues. My 4-year-old samsung galaxy s8 does a better job of accurately counting steps and tracking runs than this.
Hard to navigate everything on the watch without touch screen. Menu lists are so arcane and outdated. Music is just music with limited choices of paid services.
Climbpro appears to independently calculate its own route with no link to where i was hiking. While hiking, the maps are not available on the app. Overall, would not recommend for mountain biking, or for topo maps.

I already sent my police lt daughter her watch and she loves it because it goes with the black uniform and it looks tough on her wrist
Battery life is no better than the 3 even with the solar gimmick probably worse
