I have a Vivoactive 4 that I picked up used from Facebook a couple of months back. It's a few years old now, and the regular LCD screen looks pretty janky once you've got used to OLED. But it cost me £50, works perfectly well with GrapheneOS, and the battery still lasts a week.

It's left me pondering upgrading it to a new one with an OLED screen.

To offer a counter point: I've owned 3 different VivoActive 3 Music watches for about 2 years each. All of them had the screen stop working. Could be my bad luck, but I wasn't super rough with them (never wore them in water)
