This is my second purchase through Bestbuy online and so far everything has been seamless. Appreciate the ease and customer service. I love the watch. I would recommend this watch for anyone who is into outdoor activities or exercise. So much better than the Apple watch.

The Garmin Epix Pro is one of my most favorite purchases from Best Buy for the features and longer battery life as compared to my apple watch with all its multitude of apps I never used.
My Garmin watch has enough features to encourage me to be (outdoors) active and track my progress. This one looks like a watch and not a matchbox with straps!
Touch screen is very responsive though at times it is hard to navigate items in the corners.
Lots of reasonably priced accessories for this watch on Amazon.
The LED flash light is a pretty neat thing to include and offsets the bulky build, stands almost a centimeter above the wrist. This is a bit of a problem till you get used to it and frequently hit all kinds of surfaces in the first few weeks!! Thereby scratching the DLC black surface and leaving scuffs on a beautiful new watch. They should stop setting this expectation that it is “diamond like carbon” (DLC). Highly recommend a TPU cover and screen protector glass for the first few months till you get used to the watch. Of course I remove the cover at times when I want.
Thanks to Garmin I actually have a smartwatch which does what it is supposed to do.
One last thing, the bright AMOLED display is awesome, though I would definitely like to see more (customizable) color palette in a future software upgrade.

Best smartwatch/gps/activity tracker -watch I ever owned. The battery life is exceptional, the amoled screen is beautiful and clear. GPS connects fast and does an amazing job tracking my runs and walks. The is rugged and classy at the same time. Menu is easy to navigate and the app provides sufficient data to help me with my daily and nightly goals.

I started running this year 2022 and I needed a better running watch and after reading and watching so many reviews I decided to get this one and never looked back. Easy to navigate, battery is amazing and that's a big big plus. Solid built. Very comfortable and sexy looking....

This Epix Pro Gen 2 is an upgrade to my Fenix 5 that still worked flawlessly. Enjoying the lighter weight and amoled screen. Worried about the lower battery life but not an issue. The flashlight has been a welcome addition and has been used several times Purchased 12/2025 making it a great value.

The battery life and accuracy are two of the issues I had with the galaxy watch. I charged during the morning commute daily. There are no issues with that on this watch. Daily battery drop is around 6-7% with gps on for rucking or running. I only miss the dial a little, but having very responsive physical buttons makes up for the loss. It makes more sense how Garmin implemented the touchscreen (ie when to turn off for workouts) and the haptics are effective. Lastly, even though the screen size is almost the same, the epix pro screen is more legible to me. With aging eyes, i found it more difficult to read the screen on the GW6 as the resolution "improved" over time.

Love the dependable Garmin watch, battery life is fantastic. I use this for hiking, cycling and walking as well as monitoring my sleep. Very accurate mapping and syncs with my devices.

Great watch coming from ultra 2! The Garmin Epix Pro Gen 2 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 are both solid, but they’re made for different vibes. Garmin’s safety features are all about outdoor and fitness activities—stuff like Incident Detection and LiveTrack, plus that LED flashlight is super practical for low-light runs or hikes. It’s perfect if you’re big on training and spending time outdoors.
Apple Watch Ultra 2, on the other hand, feels more versatile. The Siren and Emergency SOS are clutch for everyday and emergency use, and Fall Detection works whether you’re working out or just walking around. The Compass Backtrack is great for finding your way on new trails.
If you’re hardcore into fitness, Garmin’s the way to go. If you want something that blends into your daily life with adventure-ready safety, Apple’s got you covered. Both are excellent—it just depends on what you’re into.

Absolutely love this watch. Switched over from Apple Watch Ultra after a lot of debating and have to say I like this more. Seamlessly integrated with my iPhone and the battery life is waaaayyyy longer. Mine has been lasting for 19days with the GPS function turned off. Lots of features. Don’t think I will ever switch out of Garmin
