Yes it have a touch screen

At best, you should have gone for one of the new ones with an OLED display. Of course, the display can't keep up with a smartwatch with a beautiful display, it's a sports watch that can keep you going on a multi-day tour including GPS or only needs to be plugged in once a month, even if you go jogging twice a week. The display is designed to minimise energy consumption. It is a sports watch with smartwatch functions, the Apple Watch is a smartwatch with. It also has weaknesses that would be unacceptable for many Garmin wearers. It's a question of what you want. What you could try is to set the automatic backlight. Then the display lights up like the Apple Watch every time you look at it. But you will never have a Retina or OLED feeling.
