MK3i Superstar
on March 20, 2024
Posted by: JerBear
I upgraded from the Garmin Epix 2 in order to add the dive features. I've done a couple of dives and have the T1 transmitter as well and LOVE the set up! It gives me all the vital info I need and works perfectly. I love having all the same features for my daily work outs and activities plus having the ability to dive with this computer! Super happy!

Looks Great - Battery Life is Amazing

I give it a 3 not because of the watch itself but because there is no way to transfer my dive logs to the Garmin Dive app from the Current Dive app I use and my Current Dive app will not connect with the watch. to have to enter every one of my dives manually into the Garmin Dive app is EXTREMELY INCONVENIENT, BUT the watch is Gorgeous and I Love it.

Great all around watch. Horrible sleep tracker
on May 11, 2024
Posted by: Danbaron
This thing is incredible with how much it can do. However, I don’t think it really does any one thing all that great. The dive features are fantastic. I feel like it’s a dive watch first and a smart watch second. But for the price, this thing should blow the Apple Watch away plus be a fantastic dive watch. My biggest complaint is the sleep tracking. It’s useless which throws off your dive readiness and your training readiness. Having come from the Apple Watch Ultra. I will certainly miss the accuracy of the sleep tracking.

I bough this a month ago for my open water certification and loved it. Easy to use and lots of customization.

I recently purchased the Garmin MK3i, primarily because I was looking for a device that could track my sleep and heart rate, and also serve as an upgrade for my dive computer. After using it for a while, I can confidently say that it has exceeded my expectations in many ways.
First and foremost, I love how the Garmin MK3i looks on my wrist. The sleek and modern design not only makes it a functional piece of technology but also a stylish accessory. It feels sturdy and well-made, which is exactly what you want from a high-end smartwatch.
The MK3i is packed with features. The sleep tracking is incredibly detailed, providing insights into the quality of my rest, including the different sleep stages. The heart rate monitor is accurate and helps me keep an eye on my cardiovascular health throughout the day.
One of the standout features for me is the workout tracking. Whether I’m running, cycling, or doing a gym session, the MK3i tracks all my activities with impressive accuracy. The data it provides is comprehensive and helps me understand my performance and progress over time.
As someone who enjoys diving, the upgrade on the dive computer is a significant benefit. The dive mode is intuitive and provides all the critical information needed underwater, making my dives safer and more enjoyable.
Although I’m thrilled with my purchase, I must admit that there is still a lot to learn. The sheer number of features can be overwhelming at first, and it takes time to explore and understand everything the watch offers. However, the effort is well worth it, as each feature adds significant value to the overall experience.
Overall, the Garmin MK3i is an excellent investment for anyone looking for a multifunctional smartwatch that excels in fitness tracking and diving capabilities. Its elegant design, robust build, and extensive feature set make it a standout device. While there is a learning curve, the rewards are worth it. I highly recommend the Garmin MK3i to anyone in the market for a high-quality smartwatch.

The battery last forever!

I ordered the galexy ultra watch when it came out and after waiting for ever for Android to make a ultra watch with a watch that was diver friendly i was super disappointed! So i gave that one to my mom and took a chance on the mk3i after watching a few reviews. There is not alot of information about this watch on features that are not dive related. But let me reassure you it does everything the other smart watches do. The notifications music controller... the only 2 things i have found that it lacks is the ability to call due to no microphone and it will not tell me my phones battery level. The other gripe i had is how hard it was to find bands for this. I wanted a nicer titanium band and only really found one..... overall inam happy with it and love being able to go well over a week on a single chage.

I purchased my Mk3i after my dive vacation last November to Raja Ampat. I already had the first MK1, but was excited to get the air integration with the new Mk3i, Used it on my last vacation in April in Maldives. Great computer. easy to read and adjust settings. less hoses.
