The long battery life is a particularly noteworthy advantage for users undertaking extended activities.
Great at being a GPS watch with basic functionality. Garmin android app is excellent. Step tracking is good. Docking a star due to some minor nuicances that on their own wouldn't be much of an issue, but are cumulatively pretty annoying. I have occasional trouble pairing with my phone that takes some messing with to work again, the move alert and button tones both turn themselves back on after a while, even though I've turned them off, and my text messages stopped displaying the body on the main screen when I receive them. The SMS messages now just display the sender and a +1 for the message, this just started happening after the last firmware update. Battery life is amazing, though. I charge mine maybe once a month. Also picks up satellites very quickly, usually within about five seconds.

I have owned Garmin watches for several years and have always been happy with their performance. This watch really set the bar for me. When I use the free Garmin Connect app on my iPhone the watch not only acts as an activity tracker but as a smartwatch as well - giving me all my notifications (text, calls, Facebook, Instagram, etc) right on my wrist. Awesome!!!

I bought this watch to keep track of pace, distance and time while running. It was chosen from amongst all others because it had gps, would upload data via Bluetooth and the price was reasonable. It's a great watch and does everything EXCEPT the Bluetooth. There is a bug in the garmin app and the watch will not sync unless unpair it, forget it from my iPhone, and turn the watch off. Then everything gets turned back on and repaired. I called garmin and they told me to do everything I have just listed. So no help there. If they could fix the sync issue this watch would be 5 stars.
