No sleep or elevation
Lack of useful apps
Fitness could be more comprehensive
Interface can be counterintuitive at first
Lack of GPS
Sometimes fiddly

Better battery but want more
The price is high

Doesn't track elevation
Increased size and weight
Only works with iPhones and not Android smartphones
It's not possible to type in a number to call has to be from recents calls or your contacts
