I had a garmin fitness watch that I wore for about two years. It got flakier and flakier over the last few months and finally went into some kind of unrecoverable update loop recently. I've tried everything I could find to fix it, but it's just dead.

I liked it a lot but I'm really tired of disposable tech and it's hard to imagine buying another.

It came back to life?
@arkmashton very similar to my #Fitbit experience. At about 18 months the battery suddenly went from lasting days to lasting about 4 hours. Went back to the Seiko automatic.
