Great watch

I bought this watch several years ago and use it for tracking horseback rides as well as walking statistics. The maps are useful when we're out of cell service and I depend on it.
I’ve owned this watch for more than 3 years. I use its features for golfing, gym, walking and sleep metrics. I love it’s battery life and clear, readable watch face.
If you’re tired of a certain fruit watch dying by days end, the Garmin Epix is your next purchase. Dozens of features, hundreds of face options and a battery that lasts well over a week. The Epix is stylish and so much cheaper than any fruit watch.
After having, and loving, my Instinct 2 solar for over 2 years, I wanted the features the Epix had and I am so happy. I love it! On my birthday I got a wonderful Happy Birthday message. LOVE!
Very happy with my purchase and quite an upgrade from my vivoactive 4 from a few years ago...features that I'm still figuring out and sleep monitoring has been a great addition since I suffer from Restless Leg Syndrome.
I’ve had several Garmin devices for tracking my performance, I’ve ran several marathon with Garmin watches: 235, Fenix 5 and this Epix: while I’ve been using my watch for the last two years, I think the Fenix 5 has a much better and stable performance (I still use it from time to time) my Fenix looks nicer (although being older) and in general the applications updates of my epix have made it slower and sometimes it freezes in the middle of a run or a ride.
It feels like if I needed a better responsive watch I’ve should skip the epix and go directly to the Fenix 8.
I will definitely be considering buying a more expensive but reliable watch than the next iteration of epix

Been wearing this for over a year now and it still doesn’t even have a scratch on the glass. Coming from an Apple Watch so it took some getting used used too but now it’s pretty easy to to navigate. Had to change out the band for something a little more breathable. Seems to track biking and running well along with sleep. The workouts on it don’t seem to count the lifting reps very well so so I find myself constantly having to adjust those. Battery life is great. Does seem to wear down much faster when doing workouts that use the gps and tracking. Overall though, very happy.
