How about doing betas for the D2 Delta as well? That would be really nice. :)

You know what would be nice? If you didn't work on developing betas for updates that haven't been rolled out to APAC models. Forget 5.10 and Spotify, APAC is still on 4.20, FFS.

Seriously. You're sticking up a middle finger to people living in APAC markets.

I agree with surista. Please give us at least an indication of by when we can expect 5.10 and Spotify to be rolled out to APAC models. Many of us here are waiting, and it's frustrating to feel ignored. I tried to get an answer from Garmin through different channels, with no success so far. You are advertising Spotify on the F5+ everywhere, and that's the reason many people buy this watch these days, but it's nowhere told that APAC models don't support it. We paid the same (or maybe more!) than everybody else for this watch. Can you please at least answer?

This is something been mentioned on this forum several times, the apac’s are very slow on updates. I live within the apac region, but i never buy my watches here because of the « speed» of the updates.

APAC will be a different development team that will take the work done by Garmin for the ROW devices, and move it over to the APAC devices.

Likely handled by a different team who will pick up features from the fenix work - worth bugging them over in the D2 forum - https://forums.garmin.com/forum/on-the-trail/wrist-worn/d2-series

It's the same hardware. That would be strange if that was done by a different team.

I'd suggest not to post in the sticky topics of any firmware releases since all the comments are getting lost as Garmin deletes the thread with the next release!
