    I was having issues with several different Fenix 5X watches. I sent them back and switched to this one. So far no disappointments

    I bought numerous smartwatches before settling on this...Galaxy Watch, different Garmins, FitBit, etc. I absolutely love my Garmin. Get all the notifications I could want and I like that it is not a touch screen.

    I bought this watch and the features are great but the watch came with bleached display colors.I mean a lot of people are complaing to Garmin regarding this problem.I talked to a lady from Garmin and she was suprised that the watch has faded colors.It has like a blueish tint but in their forums people are asking Garmin this question all the time.Some people are lucky and get a good watch with a good display so I ordered a new one but guess what...it came with the same problem. Best buy needs to ask some questions...Best Buy started to have rubbish products on the shelfs.

    This is my 4th Garmin watch. This is the best watch they have made. I have run nearly every day for many years and this watch does it all ... Garmin's top achievement thus far.

    Much much better than my Suunto 9. I do Wish it was a bit more intuitive with swim laps, but ultimately a good watch and value

    Upgraded to 945–I love it! So worth the features—Samsung pay plus music loaded means no need to carry phone.
