    This is a great watch, will pretty much do everything that you need. It is a little big, but that is about the only thing I can find negative about it.

    So far so good....easy to use, great face and more importantly - all as an avid biker and runner, all stats appear to be accurate.

    Great watch with awesome features but ended up returning. Missed the touchscreen that was on my old Garmin. It was very inconvenient to control my apps & music while running. Still giving 4 stars because I would have kept it otherwise.

    For the price it does great. If you aren't used to garmin equipment the UI can be a little confusing. But it does what I need it to do while running or Hiking

    Wish I would have purchased this watch before I purchased the forerunner 935. Not saying the forerunner isn't a great watch... this watch is just better!!!

    Only complaint is that the tones are very weak. It is a lot of stuff on this watch. I will probably never use half of it.

    My 1st Garmin watch, have had fitbit, samsung and Suunto. Nothing wrong with those, just this one does everything and does it better. Worth the hefty price tag.
