I thought I'd get my #Garmin โŒš๏ธ fixed, maybe get the battery replaced at the store.

No such thing. I'd have to call a number, they'll charge โ‚ฑโ‚ฑโ‚ฑ*, then send a replacement*. What a waste. ๐Ÿคจ #tech

Their #VivosmartHR lasted ~10ๅนด before showing defects. #VenuSq2 lasted just 2 ๅนด. Do I really want another?

My plain #Casio #BabyG #solar is a li'l old for wear, but still alive after 15 years. Never needed repairs or battery replacement. No โค๏ธ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿšฒ tracker though. Hmm... ๐Ÿค” ๐Ÿ›๏ธ?

On my Christmas ride with the Big Bros I decided to use PAS 3 for my ride back home. Normally I use PAS 1 & 2.

I was still 3 km from home when my #eBike died. ๐Ÿชซ Had to do pure pedal power. ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ Was pretty pathetic. Pedaling speed at ~11km. ๐Ÿ˜…

And my 2-yr old #Garmin #VenuSq2 that's been dying mid ride is now pretty dead. If I charge it, it turns on, 100% ๐Ÿ”‹. But once unplugged, it's totally dead. Disappointing. The reason i got this Garmin was because my 1st/previous Garmin lasted a decade. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ #tech

Aaah... Gotcha.
Thanks. ๐Ÿค“

But if a tap-to-pay device allows #GooglePay or #GarminPay, it might work... for anyone anywhere in the world that can add a payment card or #creditcard to the service. Yes?

Maybe my #Garmin #VenuSq2 will work. ๐Ÿค”?

Sunday morning ride in the city. ๐Ÿšดโ€โ™€๏ธ A little #exercise and a little #breakfast. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

I think I'll stop using my phone to track my rides. Now and then I'm missing a big chunk of my ride. And it happens to both #Strava and #BikeCitizens. Whereas tracking by my #Garmin #VenuSq2 has been perfect so far. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

On the plus side, I can now conserve phone battery power... Unless I need to share my location in realtime, then I'll use Strava. #ActivityTracker #bikes #bicycles #food

Hey! Guess what? ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

The nap recording/reporting on the #Garmin #VenuSq2 with the #DoNotDisturb turned on works! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ‘

I got morning* hours set* as my #sleep hours on the watch. But I didn't sleep in the morning today, and I had DND turned on for my afternoon* bedtime.

Yeah. I'm very pleased with my Garmin. ๐Ÿ˜

This is me after being in bed for over an hour, trying to #sleep. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ

Maybe I should just go out.
Have a big meal.

Maybe then I'll get sleepy. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Oh, I need the nap tracking! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Thanks! Good to know that it's possible. ๐Ÿ‘

Sleep is complicated for me. I just can't get enough #sleep in one go. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

What is wrong with me?! ๐Ÿ˜ณ

This was the reading in the middle of my work day yesterday. I had just started wearing my new #Garmin #VenuSq2. All I did prior to that was wake up, eat, ๐Ÿšถโ€โ™€๏ธ, buy the Venu,๐Ÿšถโ€โ™€๏ธ, ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿš•, rest, eat, work.

How am I stressed?! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

And #BodyBattery at 25/100?

Eh, actually I've never been the high energy kind. ๐Ÿค” So, okay. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Never had these reports before with my old #VivosmartHR. This is all new to me. ๐Ÿคช

Went to the mall today and...

I got me the #Garmin #VenuSq2! ๐Ÿคช

Bought from an actual Garmin store. It's about 500 pesos more expensive than buying online but the staff did a good job and was knowledgeable enough to my satisfaction. They deserve the sale. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ‘ #shopping

@mthx
I'm thinking either the #Garmin #VenuSq2 or #VenuSq2Music. ๐Ÿ˜

The solar rechargeable one would be nice but I'm not an athlete so I'm not splurging on those expensive models. My needs are simple. Don't wanna spend too much.

Although I wonder if I should get cheaper brands like #Amazfit or #Mi. I think might regret it, and that would be a real waste. ๐Ÿค” I was happy with my old Garmin and it served me well .๐Ÿ‘ So I'm inclined to stick to the brand.

Any recommendations?
