Ive just bought a Epic gen 2. Why is the user interface looking old instead off my Venu 2? There al the widgets are slick and fresh.
its feeling like a step back..

It is a matter of taste. I find GUI in Venu 3, Forerunner 265, 965 uneccessarily colorful with those gradients and skewed lines which serve no purpose other than to be different.

When you consider those things, it's not that strange for the GUI to be a bit different between them, and for different aspects to be prioritized. Epix and Fenix prioritize readability and accessibility and very deep menu options. Sports and fitness watches prioritize looking fancy and simplifying things. Different strokes for different folks. Personally I couldn't care less how my GUI looks as long as I can read everything easily, find all the options and settings I want, and it all works.
Why you didn't check it before you bought it?
There are plenty videos on youtube you could see and for sure you also could play with the watch in the shop before you bought it.
Thanks all, im starting to get used to it and yes i should have done my homework better this time now learning all the possibilties with this wath. Thanks!
