MK3i very slow to respond

I’m finding the response time for scrolling is choppy and button press has lag. The morning report for example takes up to 2 seconds to display the first screen after pressing start stop button, the following down button is rather slow also. Is there any settings to look for to help avoid this or speed things up?

    Candy and adding more advanced features takes more processing power.

    Yes, while it's animating them. Not while it's running the CIQ benchmark v2.

    But you can keep your invalid opinions. Facts with the CIQ benchmark v2 results speak for themself that they have equal performance CPUs.

    You can also read CPU Fenix 8 and enduro - fēnix 8 Series - Wearables - Garmin Forums

    You are failing to understand. I know the processor is exactly the same but what I'm saying is that the new version of the operating system and user interface on the Fenix 8 is too much for the processor to handle and a clear degradation in performance versus the previous version of the operating system. I can see that you are someone who doesn't like to feel like they are conceding anything so I will leave you in your echo chamber. :)

    This is Descent forum. This is about MK3i being slow. If you are trying to say that, say that to the Fenix forum. No wonder your comments didn't make much sense that you somehow switched your points as we were talking about Mk3i being slow.

    In reality, the processor inside the Mk3i is very old and slow and can't provide a smooth experience.

    I'll remind you this is was your comment to which I started to comment that the CPU is the same in Mk3i, Fenix 7 and Fenix 8.
