Good data, a bit inconsistent to upload.

Produces great information on sleep history/data but is a bit inconsistent on uploads and accuracy. But it’s better then nothing and much better than wearing a watch to sleep.

Crappy connection consistency

Super finicky about connecting and it's gotten worse over time. I've had to delete the connection to my phone almost regularly in the past month or so.
Connecting should be automatic and it doesn't do that consistently. Almost not worth it as I have a Fenix 8 as well. I'm wondering why I spent the money on it

Great product

I got this because I’m not a fan of sleeping with my watch on, it can be uncomfortable and wake me up if I try to sleep in with my notifications. Having this on while I’m sleeping also tracks if my body temp goes up. In the morning when I wake up I sync it to my app and put my watch on.

Bought it two weeks ago so far it works fine and is comfortable, the only thing is that the smart wake window is not working but not a dealbreaker

Good for what it is....

I love the concept of this device, but just falls short for me. I swear by wearing my watch 24x7 as it helped me detect my sleep apnea. But, wearing it all the time seems to "burn" my wrist where the sensor sets. So I bought this to wear at night to continue tracking metrics and give my wrists a break. The band is soft and once on, you don't notice it. Very easy to sleep with it on. The one down side that I have run in to is the alarm function. Even on the highest vibrating setting, I never feel it and have to default back to a regular alarm clock to wake up.
But overall, I like it and am going to keep it.

Poor performance and design

It does not let you know when it’s low on battery. No indicator on the unit. Does not always record my sleep.

I'm disappointed.

It does not work correctly with Garmin fenix 7s. The sleep data recorded by Garmin Sleep Index is replaced by Garmin fenix 7s data. And if you don't sleep in Garmin fenix 7s, you lose all the recovery analytics from Garmin fenix 7s. A smart alarm clock does not work like a smart one, but simply wakes you up at the appointed time.

Features are great, software quality s tragic

Garmin Sleep Monitor a nice monitoring tool, but I had to un-pair and pair it again for the 4 the time !!! As your updates always break it up. Watch is stable, so why not the monitor ? ! ?
IT HAS HORRIBLE STABILITY OF CONNECTION, I suppose that your horrible low quality of software code is caused by AI coding.
