I bought a Garmin vivoactive 4 a while back and I never wear it because the screen sucks as a normal watch :(

I've been contemplating buying one of the newer watches because I saw them with their screens on at JB HiFi and they looked incredible. They were the Samsung ones I think. Just another toy to waste money on though. I should sell some stuff.

I encourage you to give it another go. You can change watch faces and settings. If you still don't like it then think about getting rid of it.

Yeah I've played with the faces etc but the screen quality is just too low for what I'd like. Nowhere near bright enough too. Functionally for fitness purposes it's fine but it doesn't do the other things a smart watch should do very well.
