I had a Fenix 6. The Epix 2 has all of the feature’s I need. I don’t need the battery life. The screen is so much better. Would definitely recommend and buy again.

Have owned Apple Watches which have fair fitness features. I tried the latest "Ultra" from them as well but returned it due to its height and minimal improvements. I also tried a Garmin Venu 2 Pro which I liked EXCEPT I COULDNT PAUSE WORKOUTS (Ex: water break) and could only set their auto-detect for this. I returned it as well and tried the Ultra which although a bit bigger/taller than I'd like, I really like this watch. I've learned to use its many features for my varied activities and it can genuinely help monitor ones progress. And you can pause most any activity you want.

This is an amazing watch with great battery life and packed with features that 97% of us will never use. Having said that, if there is something you think of during your workout or while you're planning one, chances are it's there. The new AMOLED screen is amazing and the watch overall is ridiculously responsive.
Epix has been awesome for all my sports. From swimming in Kona to long runs the Epix is my go to watch. I love all the data I get from it -- the CS has been amazing. All the insights make this a must have watch.

I loved this watch, but since I was coming from the fenix 7X, I had a small problem. I had gotten so used to using the 7x flashlight, that I found the epix's poor excuse for a flashlight to be a deal-breaker for me. Once you use the 7x light, nothing else will ever satisfy! I returned the epix.
