Great running watch. Upgraded from 245
on January 12, 2023
Posted by: MikeRunner82
Love the screen on the watch. Battery life is good but not quite as good as the 245. With that said it has so many more features and functions. You would think that having additional features would make the watch harder to use, but it is super intuitive and really easy to navigate as well as set it up the way that best fits your activities. I love my watch and highly recommend it.

Love my EPIX2
on January 10, 2023
Posted by: GonzoUSMC
As a long time lover of the Fenix series of watches, this was a natural upgrade. I have the Apple Watch series 9 a try for about 2-3 months and didn’t like it. The EPIX has a great display and the battery life is amazing! Love the touch screen and button functionality and the color is vibrant and clear.

Super Upgrade
on January 9, 2023
Posted by: GaryBahamas
I upgraded my old Fenix 5s with this Epix Gen 2 and could not be any happier. The clarity of the face is amazing. They have added a large number of features, most of which I have already found useful, and improved on the ones that were already there. I have found the altimeter to be far more accurate and reliable (my old Fenix kept telling me that I was -400 feet below sea level whenever I was at the beach or home - I live in slightly above sea level Florida). I am enjoying the sleep mode as well although it is most often a bit off from my Oura ring - still a good indicator but I'm not quite ready to ditch the ring. I was struggling to decide between the new Apple Ultra and this Epix 2 and it came down to: (1) the Epix 2 is a really good looking watch as well as very functional, (2) it is more geared toward outdoor activities as opposed to excessive connectivity (I have an Apple watch, iPad and Mac door to keep me connected) and (3) despite all the hoopla about the extended life of the new Apple Ultra, it is not even close to the battery life of this watch.

Excellent Premium Sports Watch!
on January 9, 2023
Posted by: Rob W.
I have had my Epix for about a month. This watch is impressive and does everything well. The build quality is exceptional and it is perfect for the gym or a boardroom. The display is sharp, it has extensive features to track health, and the battery life is next level. Can’t go wrong here.

Great Sports Watch
on January 9, 2023
Posted by: CowboyJo
I’m a longtime Garmin fan, but this is my first spots watch. Selected the Epix2 vs Finix 7 primarily based on the display features.
As an “older” CrossFiter the watch does far more than I and is not a perfect match vs running/swimming/biking, but is helpful and believe there is more I can do with the watch to better align it with my fitness routine.
Net, net, a great watch and am pleased.

Bought the Epix as an upgrade from the Fenix 6. The screen is a huge improvement.

Does not work with wrist tattoos.
on January 5, 2023
Posted by: christastrophe67
I purchased this with high hopes it would replace my instinct tactical. Found that almost all features are dependent on heart rate monitor working. Both my arms are sleeved with tattoos and heart rate monitor is almost completely inoperative. I tried the "hack" where you place an epoxy button sticker over the green leds and found heart rate monitor does work normally now. Found that the sticker comes off a lot and causes the heart rate to stop reading. At the end of the day, I don't want to spend this much on a premium watch that I have to constantly apply a sticker on to make it functional.
