    The Garmin Fenix is the best sport watch for the money, especially for running.

    This watch has been great for hiking with the ability to quickly download trails from AllTrails and send them to the watch through the Garmin Explore app. No need to plug the watch into a computer. The only feature I wish it had is a pulse oximeter to monitor SPO2, but it wasn't worth spending significantly more on the Fenix with it.

    I purchased this smartwatch and am very happy with it's performance and features. I have always been well pleased with anything I purchased made by Garmin and this item is the same. I do not use all of the features on the watch but I find it easy to use and reliable. I would recommend this watch to anyone who needs a rugged well designed watch for their use.

    The 5x is full of excellent features and is easy to navigate. The only drawback is that it is physically large. I don’t mind but it may be uncomfortable for some

    Beginners beware this watch can deliver more data than you will probably need and the manual isn't the best. Several hours of setup and practice may be needed. Received great support from the Geek Squad on how to cycle through the features. Those who love Tech gear will enjoy all the features presented which will enhance the your activity of choice.

    I loved the Watch. It is an awesome piece of technology. The downloadable Watch faces and widgets and the information they produce is second to none. I was very disappointed that my Watch would not sync and could not be found once my iPhone updated. Had a member of geek squad check the watch and said that many people were having trouble connecting due to update. Do not buy for iPhone if you have 10.3 or above. Also could not get it to sync with my mac. I love the Watch itself and am not sure about android pairing and syncing but I could not recommend this Watch to iPhone users at this time

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I was reluctant to enter the smart/fitness watch world. I got a deal on the fenix 5x sapphire. Man this thing is awesome. Intuitive to use. Fast acquisition, and awesome bio tracking. I love the screen size. Originally thought it was dim. But it's actually perfect. Cant recommend enough. I'm sure the 6 is even better
