Garmin smartwatches: Maps could change significantly as Google Maps is being replaced

[Redaktion]

Garmin is apparently preparing a rather significant change to its maps. This should not result in major changes to the basic functionality of Garmin smartwatches, but the maps might look unfamiliar in at least one instance.

Mapbox is a huge step down. Even if it was free, there are far better alternatives.

Mapbox is a superior product in terms of software performance, design, usability, and data, especially where one might go with your Garmin. And it's easy to bring any additional and custom data.

Superior to GMaps?? You're kidding right?
Half the roads are not covered by MB and I have yet to see anything innovative. The only reason they exist is because you can embed MB maps into other apps, which you can't do with Google.

I don't which Mapbox you're using, but it's not the same as mine.

I guess the support will be of the same quality as that for the maps of the golf courses which are 5 years out of date at the moment.
