Hiking

Hi all - I’m just wondering how good the offline maps are on the ultra 3? I’m trying to decide between ultra 3 and Garmin fenix 8 after my Garmin fenix 6 died last week. I love the feel and look of ultra but i use the map function loads and if it’s painful on the ultra 3 it’s not worth it for me!

Which watch?

So my fenix 6s pro 42mm died on holiday last week. Fermin are offering me 30% off a new watch! My only issue is I loved my fenix but the 42 battery wasn’t as great as my partners 5x(which is still great) I went to try on the 47 but it’s so uncomfortable and the black strap is so long! I hate the white garmins as mine was white and got filthy. So I can get the gold either way sandstone for about £610 with discount. Not actually a great saving as 3rd parties selling for £700! O had really hoped to get the 47mm but I don’t know why it’s so uncomfortable! I even tried the Apple Watch Ultra which is huge but comfortable! I don’t know what to do! I’m worried about 43mm battery, do I just like the look of the Apple as it’s shiny? Will I miss Garmins sensible features? I love using maps and that’s the big thing for me! I love body battery and training status etc! Help a small wrist hiker out!
