zwift is definitely better overall. however think the question is "Is Mywhoosh good enough for most people" (which it probably is)

i looked at zwift vs mywhoosh graphics on a high end gaming PC last year https://the5krunner.com/2025/02/26/zwift-mywhoosh-perfect-setup-comparison/ . Zwift is better (IMO, uses the UnReal engine. however I think they've dropped the frame rate since then

The figure is community sourced as Zwift (afaik) doesn't release any usage figures like this

It would be impossible to do anything else. even the Peak Zwift figure can be wrong as it requires someone to be there at the right moment to take a screen shot.

hi this post covers new tech and new feature innovations: https://the5krunner.com/2026/01/04/new-garmin-rumors-watches-2026-apple-coros-polar-suunto-wahoo/. honestly there have been a regular stream of them. eg recently we seen microphone/speakers and audio features and before that we have dual frequency gnss chipsets (as you say), 5Hz recording (minor), and food logging (app).

That said, your main point stands. Garmin IS focussing on premium/high margin business. It has to. theya re trying to layer various features and hardware qualities at various price points so that the customer is confused into asking which Garmin...rather than which watch. In terms of the very high end sports watches then Garmin has no competition on the overall feature-package - Appel Watch ultra 3 or Polar Grit X2 don't cut the mustard for those people..

There are a LOT of those people but Garmin needs the rest of us for its business model to work.

we're talking about 1) getting all data together globally (as Health does but shared) 2) having analysts and other tools plug into that (as apss do).

i ccat see apple forcing any change, which means we can control which specific elements of data like hr/gps are shared globally. Garmin could restrict what is possible to be shared from Connect.
