    Please note this watch model does not support Garmin maps and navigation despite being sleek. As a result, a few hours after I made the order, I tried to cancel it. However, BestBuy wouldn't let me even though the item had not shipped and it has only been a few hours. After the item arrived, I had to return it in the original shipping package, which was very big for such a small item. So on my way to return it, someone noticed and stole the package from me. I wish that I could have cancelled the order when I had tried to, and I wish I could have returned the item in its product packaging without the original shipping package. That way if I could have put the item in my backpack, maybe it wouldn't have been so noticeable and snatched from me. I feel sad because I couldn't get any meaningful support from law enforcement, insurance, or BestBuy either in this issue. I hope something can change to decrease the likelihood of this kind of issue from occurring.

    I switched from my old Apple Watch to the garmin. I wore my Apple Watch for 6 years with zero issues. I have had my garmin for about a month and the locking clasp on the band already broke. So disappointed. I know it’s just a band, but the durability sucks! Now I have to go buy another band before I can wear it. The look is great, but how it will hold up is yet to be seen.
