I liked the Fossil Neutra and then saw it’s from Texas, so… My research started. A quick glace through a search engine didn’t return anything… Hence, I’m asking you

Are you me 8 months ago? I was using Mi Band 8 while looking at maybe eventually buying a Garmin Instinct type watch. Then the Xiaomi died during a quick swim in the sea in early october and I pulled the trigger on the Instinct 2S solar.
The Garmin is great, it’s so superior to the Xiaomi in literally everything that it’s not even funny.
So you have a difficult choice, between European (Polar) at the cost of having to use their App, or Gadgetbridge, and then Garmin is really the best choice by far from almost any angle.
Well, seeing as this is a non-starter for me, Polar is out of the question. Seeing as we are in the Buy European-community, I’ll rationalize it by the fact that I am avoiding their app which is probably running on American cloud infrastructure. :)
I plan to still use my Mi Band 7 for tracking HR outside of activites. But it is acting up a little - screen sometimes won’t turn on, and I have to either connect it to a charger or use the “Find device”-option in Gadgetbridge. We’ll see how long it lasts, I’ve been using it for two years so far. Ideally I would have a band with no screen that just records data that I can view in Gadgetbridge / my own setup, but I’ve never been able to find that (which again would work with Gadgetbridge).
