It’s insane to think that this is cheaper than a bog standard iPhone!

Looks good. Has anyone successfully set this up and used it with an iPhone? The website doesn’t list it as iOS compatible.

The Captain replied to windCheater on Garmin Epix (Gen 2) Carbon Gray DLC Titanium $799, Garmin Fenix 7X $836 Delivered @ Amazon AU & Germany
That version doesn’t have the Sapphire screen, and has only half of the storage (16 vs 32GB IIRC). And in my opinion, it isn’t as sweet…

The Captain commented on Arrosto 12" Portable Gas Pizza Oven $299 + $24.95 Delivery (Free Click & Collect) @ Barbecues Galore
