    Excellent product so far. Syncs with other Garmin devices seamlessly. Amoled screen is a game changer from previous watches I’ve owned. Battery life is really good to this point.

    I am training for a marathon, and I had always used an Apple Watch since I’d taken up running about 2 years ago. I never had the Ultra or anything like that. Only the SE models which seemed to work for what I needed it for at the time i.e. distance, hr monitoring, etc. This watch is a different animal entirely. It has features that you didn’t even know you needed. I particularly like the insights that it gives you around sleep and recovery. It tracks your quality of sleep to the intensity of your workouts and tailors a recovery plan for you by showing your “body’s battery”. It is a must if you’re loking to seriously train for high-intensity sports while posessing the most insightful data available in wearable tech. Highly recommend!

    Excellent multisport watch loaded with features. The new screen in this model is gorgeous and easy to read. Battery life is very good (one week of usage was 26%).

    There are some things that I didn't expect to be such an improvement. One is the overall feel on my wrist, I do forget that it's there sometimes. These shortcuts are fantastic and seamless and are highly customizable. The flashlight is surprisingly strong and I have found it to be incredibly useful

    Battery literally lasts two weeks and I work out every day 2-3 times per day. Light enough that I can sleep with it on no problem. I’m all about quantifying the self and this watch has fixed my sleep that I didnt even know was bad. Highly highly recommend

    Bought this watch as a replacement for my wife’s Instinct. She recently hired on as the Cross Country Coach for the local High School, and has been an avid runner/athlete her entire life. This watch has so many features she is still trying to learn, but each one is a pleasant surprise and upgrade. The screen is easy to read even when her arm is swinging back and forth. Easy to operate and change functions on the run.

    I like all the metrics it tracks, it guesses my weightlifting exercises correctly half of the time, battery life is about 2 weeks and doesn’t take long to recharge. Durability is nice. Overall worth purchasing.

    Does what it should

    I've been using this watch regularly for quite a while now and it's great. It does what it's supposed to do. I think it's great that they upgraded the display in the newer model to the sapphire crystal as I have acquired quite a few scratches in this one. I was disappointed at first, but now I don't really care. Battle scars. ;-) p.s. Swapping out the band for a nylon band was a game changer. Much more comfortable than the silicone band.
