SE Asia APAC watches will be updated too. After they have gone through a regional process since each watch supports the primary language of the country it was purchased in.
I am sorry, you cannot change your watch default region. For example, if you owned a Western region version, it will not contain your specific country's language.
The regional issue for languages and updates are both resolved in our newest generations. IE: the Epix 2 and the Fenix 7 series.
Great to hv promising reply but any schedule for release? also is beta version only support in "English" watches?
We do not know the date of the future APAC region update. In general, the update arrives within 2-5 months but it can vary. Regarding the new Beta program, the Beta software is not compatible with APAC region watches.
version 20 out over 6 mths...
Garmin - Chris Could Garmin just move Australia onto the US region? We just want English! Instead, we are always waiting 2-5 months +++
Just being in Australia does not mean that you have an APAC watch. Generally speaking if you buy your watch from an Australian reseller or Garmin Australia you will have a ROW watch; just like we do in New Zealand. The majority of people who have APAC watches in Aus/NZ have likely purchased offshore.
The information philipshambrook gave is accurate. Most all watches in use in Australia/NZ are no different than the rest of the world and are not APAC unless bought off shore in a SE Asia country or bought through a vendor in Australia/NZ that sold you an APAC watch.
The Australia/NZ official software updates follow the same release schedule and are released at the same time as North America and Europe/Middle East.
