If you were still a runner, or did any type of sport with decent training, you would still be using Garmin or equivalent. Apple watch just doesn't cut it. I own both (AW2 and Garmi…

Thats the sort of thing that happens when you are spoiled by buying every iPhone, never experiencing an ageing phone or even an iOs update on an older phone. It was painful to hear…
