    Wife bought me another model meant for runners. Yeah, I don't do much of that anymore... Like most other fitness trackers, this gets a bit funny with the stairs feature (barometric pressure changes give funny readings) and I haven't been able to get the GPS function to work yet. That said, I like the app interface and the rest of the features on this watch. It may seem a small thing, but I like the option to change and customize the watch face.

    Love this smartwatch! The screen is large enough vs the the one I had before (vivosmart 3). Although I do not use it to its extent, its s great watch. The screen works great, very bright. Lile otjers have mentiined the battery could last longer. And Im having trouble charging it. It use to take me 30 min to charge my other watch, this one took 3 hrs to fully charge. Unsure what was going on with that. All in all it is a great watch.

    While researching what type of watch I wanted to get the garmin stood out because it wasn’t overdone with extras and had great overall reviews. I did find that the wbutton on the side is very sensitive. I sometimes find that I have pressed it without realizing and it is changing watch faces. That would be my only complaint. If that is what you wanna call it.
