    I use it to track my daily step count and runs. The watch advises me when I do not complete my goals. It also has great apps.

    Fenix 5Xplus, too expensive.

    It seems faster than 5X I had. Too expensive for not touch screen smartwatch. Same functions as Fenix 5X. Just more expensive for no reason.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Everything was working fine but I’m in South Korea at the moment and my watch has a tendency to skip time by a day or two and resets all my steps and everything for the day.
