I’m sure it’ll be much better!

The jury is still out. Making some progress, but for some reason, it’s not tracking steps or my sleep among other other things. The fact that there is no support on the weekends is pathetic. I will it was quite easy to get a live human of the line for a previous Support incident hunt. He is quite helpful, spoke with without a heavy accent, high-pitched voice and fully understood English but I felt he was under pressure to keep the call to a specified amount of time.

Awesome. Very simple features - just had to take a little time to adjust to it (like anything that’s new)

I love this watch. It's great and motivating to use GPS and see the route I ran and post to Strava app. The watch is easy to us, record my runs and see the breakdown of all the details. Before this watch I had a Fitbit and the Garmin is beyond an improvement. Thank you Garmin!

Got his as a Christmas gift. It works great and holds a chage for a long time compared to earlier models I had.
