Can you actually compare the 2? Those Garmin watches and many other sports watches all have so much better battery life that I started questioning if they even do the same/as much as the Apple Watch. Do they? What about the screen?
I'm seriously asking because I don't know and because something's not right here. I can't imagine this thing having 8x better battery life while doing the same.
They don't do as much; apps are limited and less graphics-intensive, screens are smaller and less dense, no on-device Siri, limited background processing. No exact specs, but teardowns of the 265 show it uses about a 200mhz processor and just a few mb ram; fine for everything it does, but it's not flashy and the menus and graphics are simple. Garmin's also run a very lightweight OS. Mine has an AMOLED with a touchscreen..I disabled AOD and the touchscreen, so that saves some battery.
