I understand that Apple Watch does many things in the background. But when you're comparing something like an Apple Watch vs Garmin Epix.

If they're both turned on for hiking they are in theory using the same processing power, measurements. Apple Watch isn't doing anything different. So why is it so poor? What else is it doing...

lol comparing an Apple Watch vs a Garmin Epix in terms of overall features is a joke, the Garmin is an excellent sports watch and that’s mainly it, the Apple Watch is an excellent overall smartwatch with great sports features. You can’t compare it outside the sports features.

Did you read my post? "Why is Apple Watch battery so crap compared to competition? (when doing the same workout)". It's literally in the title. When doing the same workout.

The whole post is about only comparing the sports features.
