The camping vs glamping analogy is spot on. Nice video mate.

very informative, great video overall. Keep up the good work :)

The way he said aluminum took me out😂

You can also take a charge pack with you that’ll recharge your watch a few times. The Ultra 2 lasts me a little over 3 days and they make tiny charge packs for em that’ll charge a couple more times. I do love my Fenix 7x though, just not at all a smartwatch.

This is definitely true and something I would do if I went off the grid only once in awhile. But back when I was doing it frequently it's nice not to even have to think about battery life on my watch

Nice video. Could you please let us know the name of the sleep app for the Apple Watch you showed in the video?

Thank you! It's autosleep

Garmin is better for remote locations with offline maps and waypoint navigation, Apple Watch is for casual/usual sports users who have extra cash but never really leave the areas with cell service

I %100 agree. When I originally got the Garmin I was doing a lot of off the grid work where the maps and nav were essential. Now that I'm not doing that as much I really appreciate the smart features of the apple watch

With apps like WorkOutDoors, the Apple Watch is every bit as good with offline maps and nav (arguably better, since you're not limited to just Garmin's maps.) People also forget the AWU is substantially cheaper than equivalent Garmin's.

@@f1point2 the apps may be competitive but if you can only use the watch for 2 days or so before it dies then that could be a big deciding factor for those trying to choose between Garmin and apple

@@StevenMakesVidsI personally would keep spare battery packs with me regardless of watch for situations like these for my watches or other electronics. So far I’m getting over 3 days with my ultra 2

@@f1point2 yes, the fenix 7 lasts about 20 days without GPS and about 28 hours of pure GPS tracking, additionally, the customization of layers and topographic maps using base camp or garmin connect in a laptop, plus the import/export of GPX files makes it waaaay better suited for working outside of the big casual areas (ie. hiking in the arctic, Yukon, North West Territories, Greenland, etc)
