    Same to me, size and weight really matters...

    But can you imagine that such a basic function decent smartphone manufacturer would purposely disable in cheaper, but modern products? For example, the iPhone 14 comes out and only the pro version has widgets on the lock screen, and the regular - the classic old lock screen. Well, this is some nonsense, I wonder why there is no outcry about it. I first bought the 955, but because of the size, I switched to the 255. I expected the firmware on them to be identical, the only difference is the maps and the touch screen, but nope! Garmin cut some other basic stuff, just nonsense.

    I, as a developer, have an understanding of how it works and I almost guarantee that Garmin developers just take and turn off the functions in the code on purpose, if the model is 255, and if 955 then turn it on. The code is probably there and it works, just disabled because you didn't pay enough. Excluding such basic functions from the firmware with no hardware reason is just a disgusting act of Garmin's marketing.

    Sad thing is that the reviewers told us the only difference is the maps, the touch screen, stamina and so on, and when You buy 255, You realize that it lacks so basic feature.

    My feeling is that they intentionally do not do nitpick reviews, because of:

    They are not so interesting for subs

    Sponsors are not really happy ...
