Never thought I'd want a smart watch...
on January 20, 2023
Posted by: HugoG
I gave the Epix a try while my "main watch" was being serviced and I have to say that I'm super impressed with all the features! I run, paddleboard, and hike and this watch allows me to keep track of all my activities plus it has helped me to improve my running quite a bit. The aesthetics of the watch are not bad at all either!
If you like exercising/outdoor activities and want a cool device that can keep up with you, look no further!
Now the negative: I got the Epix back in October 2022 and it died on me two months later (watch stayed in an endless reboot loop all of a sudden). Garmin was kind enough to send me a replacement and I'm really hoping that this one doesn't have the same issue...

Does it all

Music on the run and no phone in my pocket is freeing. Creating intervals on the app and not on the watch is a big leap forward in ease of use. After a bike ride so much useful information becomes available. I love having the HRM connect with Zwift and other apps. Anyone into fitness can be motivated by using this watch. It's beautiful to wear even when not working out. You won't be disappointed with this purchase.

My Second Garmin
on January 18, 2023

I have owned my Epix Gen 2 for a month now and love it. I upgraded from a Venu 2 that I have had for over a year. I like the additional information and statistics that I get with the Epix even though I am not a super athlete. I am 72 years old and play pickleball 3 days a week... Ride my bicycle at least 10 miles on the other days. The looks of the watch are also a great feature for me. It looks less like a smartwatch and more like a sport watch.

It’s ok

I bought this a month ago and was annoyed during the initial set up when the watch prompted me to input my sleep schedule. I work 12 hour graveyard shifts only on weekends, so my sleep schedule flips during the week so I get to be awake and outdoors on my days off work. The watch would not accept my weird sleeping schedule, and continued to say there was an ‘overlap’ even though the sleep and wake hours did not overlap. So I just skipped that part and made up a sleep schedule since the watch would not let me move past imputing that info before allowing me to move forward with the setup process. The other thing I don’t care about with this watch that my Apple Watch does is the boxing feature and some of the other activities that are already preset into the watch. I wish this watch had some of those preset activities. So, I’m just going to use this watch for outdoor stuff. It’s okay I guess.

It’s been around a month now and quite like it. I think it’s better than my Tag Heuer connected watch

Better than anticipated
on January 14, 2023

I upgraded from Fenix 5. Heart monitor was a big disappointment with Fenix 5. They got it fixed on Epix. Works well. Huge difference with LED face, amazingly clear and colorful. I almost went with Fenix instead of Epix because of battery life. But the wrist movement to activate the face to give 16 days battery life really works. And it really gives 16 days battery life.

I love this watch because it has a beautiful screen that is particularly useful when using its built-in maps, which have impressive detail. I previously had a Fenix 6, and this watch feels considerably lighter and is also far more useful with the added touch screen. The battery does not take a significant hit from the high-quality screen, as the watch can still handle 16 hour scrambles in the mountains with almost 50% battery to spare.
