geordiegirl Jan 2022 10:52pm, 18 Jan 2022 17,015 posts	geordiegirl Question for those who Know garmin strategies with new releases as I have bought the 6s but not until a while after release and all previous watches were 2nd hand. Is the price likely to drop on the new 7 in the next few months? Or will it be Black Friday type deals at the earliest? I am very tempted but would be annoyed at myself if I jumped in now then 3 months down the line offers started appearing.

For a start they will need to clear out all the F6 stock so they'll need to make those look really good value by keeping the 7s high.
flanker Jan 2022 12:00am, 19 Jan 2022 20,307 posts	flanker Having read through some of the detail if I had some spare cash I probably would upgrade to a 7 for a few features - battery life, in-app configuration, and a few minor things I find annoying on the F6X that have been improved. I have no spare cash and the F6 is still an excellent device.
geordiegirl Jan 2022 6:55am, 19 Jan 2022 17,018 posts	geordiegirl Thanks flanker that was my thought but then I haven’t done this early before I got the 6s when John Lewis had a promotion on and everywhere else it was still full price. I almost went for the solar last year waited for Black Friday but talk of the 7 coming I didn’t figuring if it wasn’t that much different I’d get the 6 solar as it would price drop. There are enough improvements to think sod it life’s too short and interest free £20-£25 a month I won’t miss and will sell mine and that will pay it off quicker too. Then I think I don’t need another watch the 6 is already more than I need 🙀😖😂
