    I loved the advanced metrics, however the app was not fun to use. I didnt like how my phone didn’t automatically connect and how I need to have my phone around to see certain things

    Awful customer service from Best Buy. I ordered this product through them. After a few weeks I received a discount code from garmin. Best Buy refused to price match after telling me they would as long as I went in person. Store manager was extremely rude and lied saying that I needed to call Best Buy for the price match even though I have it in writing they would they wouldn’t honor the discounted price. Customer service was no help and very rude on the phone. Overall awful experience and will not be shopping at Best Buy again.

    Returning this watch because had several issues setting it up and could not get it to sync properly. A watch this expensive should have seamless setup.

    I had a forerunner 965, which I loved and used every day. After using for a while, I found aesthetically it didn’t always go with my clothing, so I saw the fenix 8 in soft gold. I do love this watch, for how classy it looks and its functionality.

    Would be a great upgrade from the epix Pro if Best Buy would make it available to buy.
