Great fitness tracker
on June 17, 2024
Posted by: HotdocNYC
I have been wearing my Garmin Epix gen 2 since Christmas 2022. It is a good fitness tracker, but not smart watch. It serves the purpose well. The only issue is I don't get chance to wear my other watches.

Very Capable Watch
on June 12, 2024
Posted by: RayJ
Watch is loaded with features! I love the 14+ day battery life! My old watch needed charged almost every day. Everything seems to function as advertised. If I have one complaint it's that the stair counter works by changes in altitude rather than by accelerometer. Seems To miss entire flights inside the gym. Very pleased overall with the purchase.

So much data!

The epix2 has so many data options! Still figuring it out and trying not to lock it up again and lose a few hours worth of key metrics.

Huge Improvement over Garmin Instinct
on June 5, 2024
Posted by: Jared N
I like Garmin watches and have used the Garmin Instinct for several years now. The Epix is a huge improvement. Screen is so much nicer, battery life is better, tracking info is way more accurate.
I have been pretty disappointed with the Instinct when it comes to heart rate monitoring and some of the basic functions. It still works fine as a wrist watch, GPS tracking, and receiving notifications but have never been satisfied with heart rate and bio tracking.
Today I wore both the Instinct and Epix carrying a 50lb pack up a 1000ft vertical climb. Heart rate on the Instinct was showing just over 100 bpm when the Epix was showing 150 up to 183 which was way more accurate.
I debated between the 47mm and larger size but I am glad I went with the 47mm. It is still larger than the instinct but not too big. Overall I am very happy with this watch.

Have had to replace the watch twice now. Would not recommend surfing with it.

Worked great for me backpacking
on June 2, 2024
Posted by: Brian C
The Garmin Epix Gen 2 worked great on my backpacking trip in Killarney Canada. It was easy to update the preloaded maps, simple to import GPX routes I created on another platform and helped a ton during the actual hike. Was easy to just glance at the watch for updates on progress on the route and had lots of additional info if so desired (overall elevation profile, distance to go, etc.)
If you're familiar with using apps on your phone for navigation the transition to the watch is pretty straightforward, with a terminology learning curve (routes = courses in Garmin lingo).
