My wife has the Charge 2 and she likes it. I haven’t really seen that my slightly larger screen on the Blaze makes much difference.

One thing I have noticed is the phone connectivity to the watches seems to come and go in their old age. Syncing with the app is fine but getting messages and calls on the watch isn’t reliable anymore. That was actually a very nice feature so you don’t have to find your phone to check it while exercising or even really doing anything else.
Interesting to know, thanks.
