I have the Forerunner 235. I hate it.
Here's why:

It constantly bleeps as it connects and disconnects with my phone. I mean, why? Choose a spot and stay there -- connected or disconnected.

It doesn't have enough functions. I'd like a walk function on the activity tracking, and maybe swimming (I haven't swum with this, yet). The external builds for other activities are pretty inconsequential, IMO. You can download them, and they work, but ffs, just build it into the watch.

I'd also like a few dedicated timers -- countdown and stopwatch. I'm a longtime Timex Ironman user. I used those functions all the time -- intervals, baking, pomodoro timing, etc. Super useful.

The easy things are bluetooth connections. In particular, it finds a HRM very well, and it's much better at getting a gps location than my Edge 810.

TLDR: I'd say get all the functions you want in your new watch. There's plenty to choose from. I wish I had bought a model up for better features.
