It is great when it works
on August 21, 2023
Posted by: AlEg
I've been using the Epix 2nd Generation watch across a broad spectrum of sports activities, including running, biking, hiking, skiing, and sailing. Having owned five other Garmin multisport watches in the past, I can confidently say that the Epix 2nd Gen stands out with its impressive feature set and stunning display.
While some users have raised concerns about the battery life, I find it more than satisfactory. It lasts for 14 days without GPS, and around 7 days with my usual 5-6 GPS activities per week.
However, I've had to dock two stars from my rating due to durability issues. This is already my third Epix-2. The first one developed a stuck button after about six months, and the replacement, the second watch had a faulty oxygen and heart rate sensor within a month. I'm not entirely convinced that this third watch will outlast the previous Garmin watches I've owned.
I experienced similar issues with the 1st Generation Epix. The Fenix line seems to be more robust, but that could just be a coincidence.
All in all, if this Epix-2 can serve me well for another 2-3 years, I'll be content.

Apple Watch Killer

Love this as an upgrade from the Fenix series. The screen is amazing and all the trusty Garmin features integrate flawlessly with my other devices. Beats the Apple Watch easily for training purposes and holds up as a lifestyle watch too. Battery life is pretty good given the screen.

Perfect watch for me.

I've had my Epix 2 sapphire for about a year now and have to say it has held up very very well. Still loving the build quality, screen, looks, and the updates. The watch is performing perfectly for all of my activities - hikes, walks, rowing, spin classes, and treadmill. And because it's built like a tank, it's still looks like new. Only minor scratch and a ding. Will definitely recommend.

Does what it's supposed to do

It's a solidly built watch. I wouldn't expect anything less from Garmin. Bought it to replace the head unit on my bike and it works flawlessly. Also, the map feature has come in handy in the back country several times. Overall, a nice watch for what it is.

Very happy with the screen upgrade from the Fenix, while keeping all the great features, and suffering a minimal battery life impact. I upgraded from an Apple Watch, and am much happier with the Epix' fitness and sleep tracking, while still getting the most important app notifications I want on the watch's screen. Buy this with confidence.
