Poor / inconsistent haptic feedback from buttons.
Varies between buttons (generally better with click felt on start & light buttons, squishy with no end feel on other buttons).
Vaties between presses for same button.
Garmin hardware is usually good so this was a big surprise.
You could argue this is a cheap watch but it isn't (only cheap relative to other very expensive Garmin watches).
Garmin needs to get a handle on R&D costs for both hardware & software and must not cut corners on the basics.
A plethora of devices may increase market penetration but increasing device costs might reduce share, particularly with emerging competition.
