What are the chances that Garmin will update the FR735XT to do Advanced Sleep Tracking?

I would not trust these devices for accurate sleep data. I have an OURA ring, and the data between the 2x is way different, and I'm trusting the purpose built OURA ring over running/cycling device.…

The FR735XT does not support advanced sleep tracking, so you get only deep/light phases, but no REM.

I left watch at bathroom while sleeping, it still report sleeping data, deep sleeping and light sleeping as well as movement. Why and how does it know?

By measuring movement.

None. Advanced sleep tracking requires next gen HR sensor.

I also have a problem REM sleep tracking with 735xt. It will interpret REM sleep as deep sleep which give you fault information about a quality of sleep. REM SLEEP IS NOT AS GOOD AS DEEP SLEEP. Actually REM Sleep is the lowest quality of sleep.

Have you read the answers above? The FR735XT does not support REM sleep.

Maybe the question should be why is there a data fileld for this iin garmin connect when the device does not report this.
