While there are a lot of comments saying Garmin, I haven't seen people mention the privacy aspect
https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/privacynotincluded/categories/wearables/
Garmin apps are much better for privacy. If I'm going to be wearing a biometric tracker 24/7, I don't want that data being sold to advertisers. That's more important to me than most other features
That said, didn't they get breached and lose all their customer data a few years back?
