Great Watch
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great watch. It has many features that I like. It is pretty easy to use and has a good battery life. I like this better than the fit bit. I like that I can personalize the face to see certain results on the screen at all times. It’s comfortable and fits well. The price wasn’t too bad either. There nothing so far that I don’t like

A great watch for the money
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.An affordable alternative to the traditional Apple Watch. It was easy to pair with my iPhone 16 Pro. The greatest feature is that the battery life is quite long compared with other devices like this one. Simple enough to use and easy to install on my iPhone. Well worth the price for the power. Quite satisfying overall.

No connectivity to smartphone
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have no connectivity to my Samsung phone. After several chat conversations still not resolved. Other apps seem to function OK. Sleep App not very accurate (they want you to purchase their sleep monitor)

Overall, very pleased!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My only real complaint is that, although the heartrate readings are accurate, if I exercise without turning on the corresponding app, my max heartrate is not logged. Otherwise, I have thoroughly enjoyed my time using the watch!

Not Sure How Accurate
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this device after being a longtime Fitbit user. I wasn't happy to lose key capabilities on my previous device so I looked for alternatives. I would say the jury is still out but here are some initial observations. The most disappointing feature is the auto-tracking. It simply is not working like it should. Mid-activity the tracking stops. It's happened every time I tried to use this feature. Despite NUMEROUS troubleshooting steps give to me by support, it continue the same pattern. I also told support (repeatedly) that no, I did not stop at a light or took a break when it stopped. I was walking in semi-rural areas and was mid-stride without stopping AT ALL when the device stopped tracking. Once I was going up a steep incline. The second question mark for me is the sleep tracking. I'm not saying that it isn't accurate but it gives very different results from Fitbit. I don't know which is more accurate. Personally, this device has far more "stuff" than I need. I do like the face of it and the snapshots. I don't know if it's just me but I often have trouble with the top button that I don't seem to have with the bottom button. I'm hoping with continued use, glitches will work out. I put No to recommend but that could change (I hope). Positive-battery life, comfort, look

Pretty watch , decent battery, life good stats
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I previous used a fibit. In comparison this Garmin watch has good battery life. I charge every 2-3 days, bright screen, love all the stats and workouts available thought the app and then I can add my own. Its helpful with tips and reminders to walk or rest if I had a stressful day. I also enjoy seeing my sleeping score.

Decent watch
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The strap it comes with is super uncomfortable and the screen is super scratch-prone. Getting a cheap cover and strap fixed that issue.

Phenomenal Upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I switched from a Samsung Galaxy Active to this watch due to the reviews around battery life. I was barely reaching 2 days with my Samsung and am now beyond 7 days before having to charge my device. The watch is comfortable and large enough to interact with and record all my workouts on. Very shocked at the amount of features they've packed into this little device and still have it last as long as it does. If you're in the market for an upgrade and your focus is fitness you really can't go wrong with this watch
