New 965 - Is it a joke ?

PJohann
over 1 year ago

965 has been released in the last June and it is already replaced by the 965 !

9 months ?

That means, when they released the 955, Garmin already knows the watch is bad and they wanted to replace it ASAP.

This is explained why the software on the 955 is that bad !

Ok 965 has no solar version and battery life will probably decrease a lot but....

Really frustrating.

Many thanks Garmin !

    If you feel like noone hears you, you start talking louder. Of course you dont like the negativity on this forum and all you find is pitchforks and angry people. I suppose the reality is bit different than what you see on your own web site where only people commenting are your fans :)

    I'm a software engineer with 23 years of professional enterprise experience. In very different areas.

    The fact that they introduce new bugs on every new release indicates:

    - they don't a have a proper regression automated testing in place . This is something so common in the industry for at least 10 years now that demonstrate their engineering culture is very poor and inadequate 

    - their internal systems and mobile connect app must be a nightmare spaghetti code nobody understands at this point . The LHTR bug it's on the mobile app side and they were unable to fix after 9 months .

    - as all their hundred of devices and thousands of Fw versions are supporterd on a monstrous single app... Everytime they modify something they broke something else. To make things worse... The same features are built by different teams for every device .

    Being an engineer at Garmin must be the worst possible job

    It's kind of normal that one should argue the points with something else than trying to make it personal. I find your comments very disgraceful, calling someone grifter isn't very acceptable even that would be what you think. Also then taking the point that he is from US in the tone of "Here in Europe".

    Not very hard to see why he would not like to participate in these conversations. You are not the solution to this, you are part of the problem.
