    Great watch

    I got this as a gift for my husband about a month ago, and he loves it so far. He loves the longer battery life, compared to his previous Samsung watch. He is very happy with the durability of it and how he was able to customize it to watch he wants to have accessible to him and it's comfortable to wear during workouts. Still learning more about it, but great watch so far!

    Best watch I ever had!

    Best watch I ever had. The main thing for me was the battery life. I was tired of always charging my watch every few days, now. I don’t charge my watch until 20+days; Also, having the option to charge it via solar I got to say it’s pretty cool! I would like to also add that this watch helps so much by increasing my productivity at the gym. It’s like having a personal trainer next to me tracking every lift, every reps, and every breath I take.

    Expensive but well worth it!

    I have been using for a couple months now and absolutely love this watch. So many more features than the other smart watches out there. I bought this to replace my Apple Watch and I would never go back. Battery literally lasts for AT LEAST a week and a half with 24/7 wear. It tracks my HR constantly and also my O2 levels throughout the night. Awesome looking watch as well. Great for running and working out as well. It gives you so much insight into your health stats. Definitely takes awhile to learn how to use all the features tho. Would 100% buy again and will be sticking with Garmin.

    Apple Watch killer

    I’m really impressed with this Garmin watch. The best part for me is the battery life. It’s so frustrating to charge my Apple Watch EVERY DAY. I’ll would recommend this watch, specially if you do any kind of exercises.
