What running watch is best?

Sorry if this has been asked before but I was wondering what running watches you guys use/recommend.

At the moment I use my Fitbit Charge 2 & MapMyRun but this means taking my phone with me & trying to synch the 2 when I start is fiddly. I would like something that accurately tracks what I’m doing & can store some music. There look to be so many options & very varying prices I have no idea where to start?!?

Any suggestions would be great 😁

I’ve had a few and like my Garmin 635 but it doesn’t store music. I use my Apple Watch 3 for running as well, that does store music but I have my phone in my flip belt for that anyway... I had the Fitbit Charge 2 as well and found the Garmin a huge step up.

Apple Watch 3 with cellular so I don’t have to take my phone with me but can still phone if needs be. Stores all my music 👍🏽
