In reply to Anand K. You can have that kind of feature if you go to the LTE module, otherwise, it's v the same as Fenix. Both you can leave behind the smartphone and track your activity.

Not yet – it has cellular (Forerunner 945 LTE) but only for safety features – you can’t make/receive phone calls.

Comparing these two devices, Apple Watch cellular has the option to leave the iPhone at home and you can still be able to make/receive phone calls. Does the Garmin any such option?

The Fenix 6 can be augmented with the Garmin Running Dynamics pod which clips to your waistband in the middle of your back and measures ground contact time, left-right balance, vertical motion and efficiency, and improves accuracy of cadence and stride measurements. It’s better than a personal coach reviewing film of your run.

Three features of the Fenix 6 Pro that I’ve found very useful are: 1) being able to download courses to the watch and get turn-by-turn navigation; 2) racing against a previous activity, getting real-time info about your lead at any point in a run compared to the previous run; setting alerts for Jeff Galloway’s Run Walk Run(tm) style of running.

I think you should also talk about the supporting mobile apps and websites.
