    Took me a moment to understand how to use ....still figuring out the controls for the music but I managed to sinc the headphones and I left the phone at home and was still able to hear my music when I went for a walk around the block....the problem is most likely user error. Love the watch and enjoying using it. First time user.

    My husband loves this watch! It suites his needs for work and working out. He’s obsessed with checking his steps, and all the bells and whistles on the watch face. He likes how the bands are interchangeable too. Sleek look and wear to work out look. The only thing is actually trying to figure out how to change the faces and navigation of the watch. Overall, great product.

    Lets put it this way, you get an apple watch for a personal assistant, you get a Garmin for a coach. If you are more physically active and would like to improve, I would highly recommend getting this watch. I had an apple watch series 2 before and the graphics are bad, but the battery life is great (5 days with 1 GPS workout+ 1 non GPS workout tracking per day).

    LOVE THIS WATCH- It is my fifth Garmin watch and it performs beyond expectations. Easy to use, measures more metrics than one can believe, this watch does it all I use it for everyday wear as well as all my tri workouts- biking, swimming, running. Love the ability to track my daily heart rate to see if over-training, etc. WORTH EVERY PENNY

    Awesome GPS Watch! I much prefer the Fenix 5x Plus over my Samsung Smart watch. I needed something rugged and accurate for GPS location, this definitely fit the bill! Side note. The backlight is kind of poop on my particular watch. It has a noticable blue tint, and for the price paid, I would have hoped for more balanced black.

    I now wear the Garmin 5X Plus every day due to the level of comfort and functionality. Beyond the obvious use of keeping track of fitness goals, the watch has many other uses. It works great for a golf GPS, plus the hiking/navigation/topo map features help out while hiking or hunting. I feel it is a great watch and avoids having to buy multiple pieces of gear for outdoor activities.
