    I previously had an Apple Watch and 100% prefer it more. The side buttons are so tiny and difficult to push if you wear it on your right hand. No being able to reply to messages are annoying. It’s difficult to find stuff a lot on the garmin too. It’s definitely though nice that it tracks your sleep and you barely have to charge it

    I had an older Garmin and really liked it. I brought this one for the price.

    I've been using this watch for ten months now. At first, I was happy. 9 months in, it won't stay connected to my phone. Last weekend, for no reason I can explain, the glass cracked while I was navigating the apps. Not cool.

    This is my third smartwatch and none like this one. Quick setup via the app. I love that I can monitor my stress levels and it's pretty accurate.

    Love the Garmin infrastructure. HR sensor very accurate. Much better than my Fitbit Charge 5. Battery life around 8days in smart watch mode with PulseOx disabled, it is a battery hog. So far it the watch has motivated me to run 4 days a week via Garmin challenges!

    Great watch. Upgraded from previous model. New graphics are just ok, but has some nice be features and metrics. Great value as it combines sander capabilities with good fitness metrics.

    I'm not sure if I had a faulty watch, but if my phone were in my pocket it would disconnect and reconnect several times a day. HR monitor was working well, I would be running and it would register at 70BPM.

    Perfect for those who like a more subtle look and flushed face watch. App has face downloads for customization. Smaller than Apple Watch.

    This was a great gift. I have a lot of experience with Appel watch but she wanted a round face watch. From what I have heard it does a lot of the same thing my Apple does. The only complaint she had was how short the charging cable was.

    I loved the watch and everything it could do for me. The only thing i disliked was the alarms were always seperate from my phone and i couldnt customize it the way that id like.
