How is WearOS doing in 2023?

I’m thinking about making a return from Garmin in the near future with Samsung announcing the Galaxy Watch 6 making a return with the ever-so-popular rotating bezel, and Google is now focused on their own Pixel Watch. For people who are currently using a WearOS device, what are your thoughts on the current state of the platform as a smartwatch and fitness tracker as of mid 2023?

For me the GPS feature with GPX import and music was the one that sold me for running with the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro. If it wasn’t I wouldve bought a Garmin.
