I live this watch, it has helped me take my training to the next level!! The app is amazing, the details it goes into for what you have accomplished in the day is very cool. Have friends with the watch? You can compete with them, challenge them and earn badges doing it. I wish I would have bought this watch sooner!!

This has been a fantastic watch for the year and a half I've owned it until the menu button just stopped working. I've used the watch for hiking and day to day use so nothing obviously that would of broken a single button. Out of warranty and just shy of 200 to replace thru Garmin.

Lots of features and very high quality, but I found the screen resolution and colors to be lacking and I wish it was touch screen.
I have an iPhone, but hate the look of the Apple Watch. Ended up returning it and getting a Samsung Galaxy 46mm and, even though some of the features are not available when using and iPhone, I like it way better.

She loves this watch. It's her first smart watch and she does a lot of hiking so that was the primary reason for the purchase. Once she started using it and watched a few videos, she realized just how many functions it has and how it integrates with different hiking and fitness apps.

Any activity you can imagine can be tracked real time, monitored and transmitted by this watch. You can pay at the store off the watch, receive emails, texts, call alerts, maps, routes, music. This is the second Fenix currently owned. The other is the outstanding Fenix 5x sapphire.

Unless you are a hardcore outdoorsman, the features packed into this will be an overkill and you will miss the consumer features like bright oled screen. This one is definitely function over form... So if like me you don't need the function then look elsewhere.

My first Garmin watch and I love it. Wish I had waited another month, I would have bought the Fenix 7 instead. So disappointed when Garmin released the Fenix 7 a month after I bought this Fenix 6.

This watch is truly amazing! It has more than I have ever thought possible that a watch can do! Learning something new on this watch every day. This watch does it all, and it’s rugged as well. Very tough, but great looking at the same time. Love it!

This watch is awesome. I previously had older Fenix models and this has been the best so far. If you’re into active outdoor pursuits then you can’t go wrong with this.

I upgraded my watch from the fenix 5 to the new Fenix 6. I have LOVED it so far. It has soooooooooooooo many abilities and functions already built into the watch, and soooooooo many more available to download.

The biggest issue I have with this unit is the heart rate sensor simply doesn't seem to work with darker skin tones. Coming from a polar oh1 its there a noticable difference in accuracy. I had workouts where my heart rate on the polar oh1 is reading 150-160bpm and Fenix 6x is reading 98-102 bpms. When looking at 4 hours of medium high intensity workout in Garmins software I never once aligned with the polar.
I'm thinking A this hasn't been tested with darker skin or I got a dud. I spoke with garmin it will take a month for them to ship a new one. I will exchange this unit and if the replacement also performs better i will update this review to 5 stars.

Sorry you had this issue. Garmin does test it products on all skin types. Skin pigmentation is measured on the Fitzpatrick scale and we test up to the maximum level 6. Due to limitations on the technology, there can be some inherent issues with extremely dark skin tones though.
