    It’s a great watch. Love the functionality and it’s a perfect fit for my small wrist. Battery life is insane as well!

    Awesome watch! Once I got it all set up and personalized it's such a support in my fitness journey. I love having the info on how I sleep and my activity trends. Really great to have the GPS component as well to visualize my hikes.

    As a runner and someone who is active, this watch is amazing. It is easy to use and tracks everything, even things that I would not think of . I have been using it to help me train for a half marathon and the training guide option is perfect. I can’t think of one bad thing to say about this watch.

    If possible I’d give 4 1/2 stars. My only complaint? It doesn’t track data when you run on the treadmill very well. Everything else is amazing, including having a training plan that updates based on my performance and data.

    Fantastic watch with all the features! I upgraded to this Forerunner version and am so glad I did. It can take a few seconds for GPS to lock in before a workout but nothing significant enough to warrant a demotion on rating.

    This is a great watch; it was a graduation gift to my grand-daughter who is a runner. She really loves it as it tells her all the information she needs, before going out on her daily training run. HIGHLY RECOMERNDED.
