    So far I love it! It tracks my steps more accurately than an Apple Watch and gives me insights on my sleep and stress levels. I love it

    Amazing stats dashboard and tracking. Dynamic Heart rate monitoring during runs seems highly inaccurate though

    Great product, amazing apps. However, cannot support Spotify on this particular model. That’s the only downfall.

    I purchased this item to replace my Fit bit. When I returned home my Git bit was working. So. I returned the Garmin.

    The menu can be a bit clunky at times but for starting out running and tracking anything health and fitness I highly recommend.

    I purchased this watch because I had a FitBit previously but replaced it because the band was not strong to handle my workouts. It consistently fell off my wrist during the workout after a month. Garmin was the next best option at the store and it’s lacking ease of function and the auto sensing workout feature which was important to me and I believed was standard on most new watches. Not easy to use in my opinion and I’m in the technology field and believe it should be more intuitive to the user.
