    I loved the device and had it on me everyday to measure the steps and all the activity. It had all the activities that I needed to measure all the heart rate, GPS and etc for a reasonable price. I never worn watches and I've tried other fitness tracker in past but I never liked the fit on my wrist. This was light weight and after a while I got used to it. However on 2/12/2017 the Screen started acting up weird by missing some pixel then to nothing on the screen. At end of the day it was back up and running, I made sure the device was fully charged. And 2/13/2016 half of the screen went missing and now completely dead screen. I still get notification but dark screen........ I've contacted Garmin, they have created a RMA # to ship it back but they want me to pay out of pocket to return the product for them to repair/replace....something that is only 50 days old and under warranty. I loved the device but a device that $250.00 should not fail in 50 days.

    The screen was said to be made to be viewed in all types of light. However, I found that it wasn't bright enough for me. I wasn't able to control the brightness. The hr monitor was pretty accurate and only differed from 1-4 beats as opposed to the manual reading. Overall, it was okay, but I think it is too expensive for the features it has.

    The watch has been great so far. The Smart notifications letting you choose which apps you get notifications from is great. Garmin Connect just expanded insights to let you view how you do against people in your age bucket which is great. I would have given it 5 stars if they would have integrated Interval Workouts that you can setup within connect. I set a few up only to find out that it cannot sync with my set up.

    The gps works better than other watches I've had and seems to be more accurate as well. Pairing with Bluetooth on your phone is a nice feature too, being able to receive text notifications and control your music playlist is another perk. I've also tested it out in the pool and works well with no issues from the salt water pool I use.

    I really liked this at first, it worked great, only had to charge it once a week and it was so accurate. The only thing I didn't like was how far it sat up off my wrist. I would hit it on things all the time and then about six months in I had to charge it more often and it was not so accurate.

    I got it because it's waterproof and the fit bit isn't. Fit bit seems more like a fad and i would rather go with a trusted lasting brand.
