Oled is beautiful, not a huge fan of the metal on plastic. Waiting for marq series with oled!

A Huge Step Above

I have owned the Fenix 5 since it came out and had no complaints with it. After reading other reviews for the Epix, I decided to make the plunge.
Can I say, I have no regrets. The Epix is above and beyond my previous Garmin. The screen is what I had been wanting. The crisp brightness, along with touch features, of the screen works great during exercise and casual use.
The packed features in the watch leaves minimal room to want more. The battery life is exceptional for a watch with this screen quality.
As for the price, I have no regrets and couldn't see myself going back to the Fenix line.

First time Garmin watch owner

I’ve always been a mechanical watch person. Only smart watch I ever tried was Apple, but that didn’t last very long because charging every night was, and still is, a hassle IMHO.
I learned about the Fenix series a few years ago…Fenix 6 to be specific, and as tempted as all the features and battery life was, I didn’t dig the dull screen, especially in sapphire (which is the only way I’d get it). So I patiently waited after hearing rumors about the Fenix7 and got even more pumped when I heard there might be an AMOLED version.

The Epix2 solved my concerns. It’s got a great screen and battery life. With gesture on o(vs.always on), 1-2hrs workouts everyday (always on screen + full GPS), and sleep spo2 I’ve been getting @14days. I normally charge with @2-3day left and it takes approx 2hrs. For me the time between getting home and bed works out well, once every 11-12 days.
For a next Gen, I’d like to see a 51mm AMOLED with Solar/sapphire. The larger screen would make quick glances while working out even easier and the solar would improve, or at least maintain, battery life because of the larger AMOLED screen.
For now, my expensive mechanical watches have been put away for the foreseeable future. Anyone want to buy a Rolex or JLC?, LOL.

Not sold on it yet.

I've had this watch since right after the release and haven't gotten to use it to its full potential but have used it alot. I am beyond irritated that the wrist heart sensor works maybe 2 hours a day with all of the measured sections added up, also with that if my watch is correct I've slept a total of maybe 20 hours since I've gotten this watch... kinda wishing I would have gotten a smart watch and bought a garmin GPS separately instead of dropping a grand for both in one.

Love this watch!

I looked at both the Epix & Fenix 7S and despite wanting the smaller watch originally, I fell in love with the screen on the Epix. Once you see it, you won't be able to go back, especially given how great the battery life is.
