Hoping Garmin 275 Will Avoid the Mistake of the Instinct 3

I'm currently using my trusty, albeit aging, Garmin 245, and I’m really hoping to upgrade to the new Garmin 275.

I just hope Garmin doesn’t make the same mistake they did with the Instinct 3, by releasing it with the outdated Elevate 4 optical sensor.

What do you think — when will they announce the 275?

I’m hoping it’ll come with:

  • Elevate 5 optical HRM
  • ECG capabilities
  • Speaker / Mic for calls or AI
  • Wireless charging
  • A larger display
  • A more accurate GPS chipset
  • LED flashlight
  • Improved battery life
  • Better mapping capabilities

Fingers crossed!
