    Garmin has been doing great things with their watches lately and this is no exception. Outside of having it's own phone plan, this watch makes it easy to do day to day functions and workouts without your phone (or your wallet) Great features, sleep metrics, and training recommendations combined with above standard battery life make this a great choice for anyone looking at a healthy middle ground between the 200 series watches and the larger Phenix line.

    Quality watch and extremely accurate when training! Topographic view is extremely helpful when mapping run and or reviewing a course. Would recommend a screen protector for those who are destructive (like myself) but can withstand a good knock or two. Would highly recommend for those training/enjoy running!

    Such a great watch for exercising. Especially running. It’s light and very easy to navigate. Paired with the garmin connect app and you have so much data. If you’re into health stats, this is the brand to have. If you’re running, this is great watch.

    Best idea was to switch from an Apple Watch!! Forget to charge it bc it takes almost 2 weeks to die. Love using it for long run, don’t have to worry it will die mid long run!!

    This watch worked well. I got it for myself and loved it. I ended up giving it to my son after I purchased the Fenix 8 for myself. This is only because the Fenix 8 does Scuba Diving. Otherwise, this is a Fantastic watch.

    I’ve owned several Garmins. I do like all of them but this is definitely my favorite!! Big bright face, able to see all my stats without readers and even with sunglasses on. Plus it looks great!
