Amazing Watch
Had it for a month now and have only charged 2 and each charge only took 30 mins top, very impressed with that. Watch does everything the older model does but better.

Another great garmin... upgraded
Simple easy to read and use design: that matter if you are on the track or mountain! No touch screen no sarppire no problem: Menu and functions are even simplier then earlier garmin models. Solar is a good selling point but under direct sun 1hr will boost 1%... too weak. Overall I am happy to do sport and get info from this great watch!!

Provides Motivation and Accountability!
Its the kick in the pants I needed! The solar/charge last forever. GPS is a big plus in tracking what activities I do. Also works great with the Garmin EDGE that I use for my cycling and MTB'ing. Biggest plus is now accountable in front of friends (through Strava).

Beyond expectations.
I wear this watch for couple of weeks and I love it. Very convenient, great design and number of features beyond expectations. Easy to understand how to use it.

Good features
Got the watch because I wanted a smartwatch that hand some integrated GPS features so I don't have to lug my phone everywhere/keep it on. So far, watch delivers, the band on the other hand, garbage and the lack of a plug/cover for the charger was irksom. Sourced replacements/additions fairly easily but still annoying that for the price, it does not have those things already. .

Nce layout

From Garmin
well worth it
SO I have had this watch for over a year now, the look of it is on point, best looking smart watch out there. The functionally of it, easy to use. easy to navigate with, set timers, monitor work outs, monitor elevation, and sunrise and sunset. I primarilly use it as a sportman, I like that witha glance I can see the sunrise and sun set times. I dont misplace my truck when I go out on long hikes/hunts. Works perfectly when my phone dies and I dont accesss to my onX. All in all this is a great pie...

Too much to list
I had a problem With the swimming app , dont know how it could be improved . It was over counting my distance giving me a false sense of accomplishment. Also not enough actual linkahe to events in my area , shouldnt be hard to irganize seeing the revenue these events produce for lical economies. Garmin can do better
From Garmin
Extremely satisfied!!
I am enjoying the different functions of the watch as well as the ruggedness of it. Still getting used to all of the functions but love what I have seen so far.

OK smart watch
Lot of problems with syncing…. Not easy to navigate through functions. Sleep mode is not the best. Pulse ox needs improvement.

Junk
Total junk. Completely useless, in every way, complicated beyond belief absolutely crap
From Garmin
Big size but really light, comfortable and tough
I really like the watch. I like big watches. The only bad thing is that I work in a warehouse and I’m almost all day inside. The only time that the sun hit my watch is when I’m going to the gym and then to my house. Which is about 45 minutes. So the watch doesn’t get enough sun. But I really like the watch. I don’t use the gps mode so the battery is not going to be a problem.

Amazing watch
I love the larger display. It has a ton of features. Battery life is wonderful. Overall its a 10 out of 10
From Garmin
10/10
I went from charging my Apple Watch every night to barely thinking about charging my Garmin for weeks — and that’s with plenty of daily steps and runs!
From Garmin
Great piece of kit
Tracking, planning, and navigating, all in one small kit on your wrist. Steep learning curve but it works well and is handy to have.

Watch is amazing!
Watch is amazing!! The only thing that’s a bit unsatisfactory are the apps to modify the faces and tools they are a bit slow and I wish they were a lot more user friendly.

Impossible to read directions booklet
Bought it a month ago still haven’t been able to set it up Too complex and booklet is worthless
From Garmin
Slow to function
I had the watch for 2 months and already had to have it replaced for buttons failing to work. Watch is very slow to function and for the price not worth the money in my opinion.
