=Garmin 920XT Pros=
* The 920XT supports Garmin's Connect IQ, which allows for the creation of apps in much the same way you can run apps on Android or iOS. Just like the original iPhone, this has the potential to be revolutionary, making the 920XT an extensible platform for future functionality.
* Garmin has added support for displaying your current [[Pace From A Footpod]] while getting all other data from GPS. For situations where pacing is critical, such as running a marathon, this is a must have feature. You can also configure it to get both pace and distance from the Footpod, while still recording the track of where you've been from GPS.
* The 920XT is quite a bit bigger than devices like the [[Garmin 620]] that look more like a traditional watch. However, I have tiny wrists (less than 6 inches) and I found 920XT was far more comfortable than watches like the [[Polar V800]].
* The display on the 920XT is color and a good size that is easier to read than some watches. Unlike the [[Garmin 620]], the color display on 920XT is quite strong. I'm not sure that color adds much functionality, but it does make the 920XT more visually appealing. While the 920XT has a slightly smaller display than its predecessor, the 910XT, it has nearly twice the resolution, creating a far crisper display.
