    This Garmin is a great activity tracker it tracks your steps, how many stairs you climb plus many other activities. It sets goals and gives a party on you wrist when a goal is reached.

    Bought for my wife, shes 'hard' on things and we needed something that lasted more then a few bumps or falling into water. Over all much happier with this than the Fit Bit mainly due to find my phone and music controls. Not sure if its the phone or watch but some days she needs to connect the Bluetooth for syncing. Only thing she didn't like was the single settable alarm, would of liked at lest 3.

    I went ahead and purchased because I got a deep discount. With that said it does the basics well but, as others before stated, the screen is dim and everything else [excluding time/date which has larger numbers and text] is so small that it can't be read. It's fine for tracking if an other device is used to view data, however, that's about it.

    Heart Rate not accurate...

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I am big fan of wearables, Garmin products are solid and high quality, but for their new HR monitor feature. It is off by a large margin of error, as I compare my heart rate with my Polar and Gear S2 which both were registering 87 and 89 bpm where the Garmin was registering 72 to 76 bpm. I decided to return this product and get the new Polar A360.

    I love it easy to use. I personally find it to be more accurate than my FitbitHR with step and floors climbed. I feel the battery life is longer. Sizing is better than the FitBit too.
