Having tried a few ‘Smart watches’ to replace my ‘boring’ Apple Watch I found none of them were that smart. Either alerts were unreliable , faces the watch was advertised with weren’t available , connectivity issues if you didn’t leave the app running all the time , clunky menus and awkward navigation just to name a few. Had my EPIX gen 2 now a week and I love it. Battery life brilliant - unlike Apple. Numerous gorgeous free faces and some amazing yet reasonably priced faces to purchase. Not played golf yet but that’s another great positive for this watch. Bought a chronograph face pack for less than a spirit in my pub and this watch looks stunning. My wife is so pleased I won’t be buying any more now for quite some time.

I've had two different samsung watches before I chose this garmin. The difference is astonishing, the samsung I'd be lucky to get 3 days of battery. The garmin...16 days! With all features turned on including altimeter, heart rate, weather that are giving constant readings. For me personally the garmin does way more than the samsung, and for what I use it for the difference is night and day. I use it for long hikes...again the samsung would give me approximately 8 hours on a full charge for gps and all other readings. The garmin gives about 40 odd hours! Absolutely brilliant watch. So pleased I took a chance. I have an epoxy sticker on the back as I have tattoos, and it works perfectly! Overall, I'm super impressed. Well worth it! Also a little detail I like is the strap has a notch when it's on so the end of the strap doesn't come loose! (Hard to explain in words)

I have had a Garmin Fenix 5 watch since 2018. I used for tracking walks and running and if I am honest also found the larger display useful when at work. It's been a great watch long battery life and apart from changing the strap no issues. However when I saw the Epix watch on sale in the recent Prime sale I decided to go for it. Four days in I am not disappointed. The watch feels a lot lighter than my old Fenix and fits much better on my wrist. The display is excellent and having the touchscreen functionality makes it really easy to use. In the last six months I have been a bit more fitness focussed and the additional monitoring options available with the Epix are really helpful. I also like the fact it looks good as a casual watch for everyday use. As always with Garmin battery life looks excellent. I have the always in display enabled and after 4 days and a couple of runs still have a minimum of 4 days before I have to think about recharging. If you can get the watch for the discounted price and your in the market for a premium fitness watch my advice would be go for it.

.This is my second Garmin watch, upgraded from a fenix 6, A very worthy upgrade.The big plus for me is the touch screen and the ease of using the features available via touch screen. I use the watch for Fell Walking. Cycling, and Walking, Extremely impressed with the functions of the watch. I was so fortunate to get the watch at a greatly reduced price of £192, Returned my Amazon purchase because they could not price match. Would Highly recommend this watch especially against the price comparison of the Saphire edition. Mine is the 47mm 1.3 inch size. ①

I've had this watch for a month now and although it's pricey I reckon it's excellent value. (Actually the price on Amazon seems to have gone up by £120 since I bought it.) It looks great, the screen is super-bright and sharp, readable even in full sun. The supplied faces are very varied and well designed. Most of them enable you to display many data items - heart rate (with a little 6-hour graph) step count, altitude, floors climbed, date, sunrise and set times, and many others. You can pick which of these you want to display, what colours to use for text etc etc. It also has all the usual timers, stopwatches etc. Although as I said I've been using this for a while I'm still in my infancy regarding my understanding of all its functions. There are multiple preset activities - walk, run, cardio etc, and at the end you get a comprehensive analysis of all aspects. Multi-source GPS is automatically applied for moving activities, and supports a mini onscreen map. The PDF manual is pretty comprehensive though rather heavy going; I've found just a web search with the model name and a question normally returns the relevant page of the manual quicker than you could find it in the PDF. The linked phone app works slickly and provides a wealth of data on all activities. I particularly like the "Body Battery", a continuous score out of 100 for your general readiness for exercise. I don't know how it calculates this, but I've found that the number is spookily correlated to how I feel generally doing the day. Sleep tracking is also reliable and comprehensive. I really only have a couple of gripes. I come from previously using a Fitbit and was surprised to find that, unlike their system, Garmin does not show the current battery level in the app. So when it's on a charger somewhere you have to go back to it to check if it's finished charging. Also, the supplied strap is not great. It fits OK, but it's sweaty to wear and brought my wrist out in red weals. I've already replaced it with a titanium strap. Finally, although a full European mapping is available for download, there's insufficient space on the watch for it. There's huge support for golf players with maps and details of courses, and it seems these take up a large part of available storage. Stupidly, these are not simply deletable (although there is a hack online involving opening the watch as a device on a PC and deleting the files). A more official workaround is to just download the western Europe section only. All in all, I'm delighted with my purchase. I may add to this review as I learn more.

L'orologio è bellissimo e il passo avanti ai modelli precedenti in mio possesso è notevole, non ho provato ancora tutte le funzioni ma ho visto che la parte della frequenza cardiaca è molto attendibile anche senza fascia cardio(ma non perfetta).

Premium-Smartwatch für Sportskanonen, hervorragendes Display das man auch noch in grellster Sonne ablesen kann, dazu Touch-Screen der solide funktioniert und mit Handschuhen ist die Uhr bequem über die Knöpfe bedienbar. Die Uhr wirkt vom finish hochwertig und ist in der Praxis sehr robust und kratzfest. Trotzdem ist die Uhr sehr leicht. Für einige mögen die 61g (laut Hersteller) billig wirken, wer aber mal einen Edelstahl Maverick Chronograph mit Edelstahlarmband stundenlang am Handgelenk schlackern hatte (ca.161g) wird das geringe Gewicht bei seinen vielen Freizeitaktivitäten zu schätzen wissen. Das GPS ist sehr genau. Sehr gefallen hat mir die Karten und Navigationsfunktion für meine Radtouren. Die Uhr bietet extrem viele funktionen die ich hier gar nicht alle Aufzählen kann. Akkulaufzeit liegt bei ca. 6 Tagen und kann im Energiesparmodus auf bis zu 21 Tage hochgehen. der Preis ist heftig aber die Verarbeitung ist gut, die Technik ist gut, Garmin connect ist mit seinen vielen features kostenlos. garmin connect und die menüführung auf der uhr ist manchmal unübersichtlich. aber irgendwas ist ja immer. aber Kurz: für super aktive multisportler, tri-athleten, Sportkanonen, Outdoor-Helden ist die Uhr eine Überlegung wert. Alternativen wären evtl. die Fenix 5 oder 6 Wer nur einen Schrittzähler braucht sollte sich was anderes kaufen.

Hade en Fenix 6 pro men saknade tryck i skärmens färger eftersom jag var van vid Apple Watch. Den här är den perfekta kombinationen av Garmins överlägsna funktionalitet inom träning (det är en sämre "smartwatch" än Apples klocka) - och en bra skärm. Batteritiden lider men jag får ut 6 dagar vilket är mer än good enough för mig. Supernöjd.

I bought this watch mainly for sport like fitness, hiking, cycling and golf. The watch has a considerable weight and I prefer my Vivoactive 4 which I kept for fitness because of that. There are a lot of sportprofiles, the golf features are great and measuring the heart beats, saturation and stress levels are a big plus. The Amoled screen is very clear and detailed and battery life a lot better than Vivoactive. I am a watch lover but wear most of the time the Epix because I love the looks. Even bought a metal strap which adds to the looks.
