A nice side benefit is that the looong battery life will put pressure on other mfrs to up their battery life, too.
The training metrics are the key. I might be almost 50, but I am not ready to accept I am aging (even though I am), and Garmin is providing an ecosystem that enables me maximizing my efforts. No other device natively does that. The battery life is neat, but it isn’t a selling point for people who never ride more than 3-4 hours a day.
