Garmin has been making great smartwatches for nearly a decade, but we all know which brands get the most attention: Apple and Samsung. Both brands have their strengths (ahem—and weaknesses). That said, they can’t compete with the staggering list of onboard features Garmin brings to the table. Garmin watches embrace a niche market with offerings like a more sophisticated GPS, diving apps, and well-known durability.
One of the many areas Garmin tracks ahead of the competition is with its solar charging. Couple the already robust battery life with the power of the sun, and you have a watch that’s ready for anything. So, if you're the outdoorsy type or love running in all the “thons,” solar-charged smartwatches are quite handy.
