I had cellular on my AW8. I like having it when I go out on a hike because I never take my phone and it gives me a way to be connected if I need to be. And then there were a couple of times where I forgot my phone at home and was still able to send messages, make a call, and stuff like that. It doesn’t get used all that often and maybe it’s not worth it but it sure is nice to have when you do need it.

Mine goes on the charger at night and comes off in the morning. I haven’t done sleep tracking since my Fitbit.

Yeah. I only have two Apple watches to compare to and I tend to walk the same path over and over. They are always within a couple hundredths of a mile of each other. But I have a hiking buddy who has a new Venu 3 and sometimes they can be more off, like as much as a tenth of a mile.

For reference, I just hike and walk and the areas that I do this in are pretty flat and tree free.

I track with my Apple watch, so all of my other watches are gathering dust somewhere.

It’s a great tracker. I use it for walks and I have never had a watch with GPS that has been as consistently accurate as my AW. Before this, I had a Garmin Venu and while it definitely had more metrics, the GPS just wasn’t consistent. And before that I had a Fitbit that was absolute garbage.

My AW doesn’t have the crazy level of metrics that the Garmin has but it does have enough. I don’t need 25 different metrics, most of which I don’t understand, for my walks and hikes. YMMV if you are an elite athlete or a marathon runner or something like that. For distance and heart rate, it is a fantastic device.

Snoopy eating the ass out of a turkey. I mean why not?
