    Wish I could keep up with it. I am disappointed in its sleep monitoring.

    Fantastic watch loaded with great features. Minimum 50 characters, this sentence is dumb because of dumb policies.

    Awesome Multi Sport Watch

    I've had several Garmin Forerunners over the last 5 years and I had the apple watch (original version). I really wanted to have a fashionable, functional multi sport, smart watch. So when I found the Fenix 5s I HAD to get it. I love how it looks and feels! Mine came with the white band and grey suede band. I also purchased the champagne stainless steel band. Voila! I have the fashion and functions. I love that I can use this watch for ALL of my sporting activities; even YOGA! The GPS and calorie count are very accurate too; although others may disagree. The only CONS I have for the watch are: 1: The syncing/connection to my iPhone 7 is spotty at times. I'll have to wait for it to connect or restart both, the watch and the phone to get it to work. 2: The treadmill calibration is not good at all. My watch is always between .25 to .50 of a mile off by MORE than what I run on the treadmill. It's not a huge issue, but it is a nuisance. There is a workaround though. Once I stop the activity, the watch gives me a option to "Calibrate and Save" the run directly on the watch. So I'm able to correct it before it syncs to Garmin Connect. The watch does have A LOT of features, so it will take time (a few weeks for me) to learn them all. I would recommend watching YouTube videos for the best learning experience.

    I really love the watch and the way it works. What i really dislike was that the white face watch become like dirt stained make it impossible to clean it. I barely have a month with it. Quality its really bad for almost a $600 dollar watch
