This is the watch I’ve been waiting for

I’ve been a fan of Garmin sports watches for the past 10 years. But I’ve always struggled with the display. I eventually switched into Apple Watch because of the AMOLED display.
Finding the Apple Watch a pain with battery life and inaccurate measurements, I went back to my trusty Garmin Fenix 6X. Then…the Epix 2 hit. This thing gives me all the metrics I could want, amazing battery life, AND an AMOLED screen. Absolutely love it.

Previously used the Garmin Vivoactive 4 which was great but the Epix offers so much more (including onboard Maps). I was waiting for the Fenix 7 but the Epix has the same features with the Amoled screen. It's lightweight and the perfect size. Much easier to read when working out and extremely customizable.

At this point, I’ve regret switching from Fenix 6 pro to the epix. Display is nice, but not worth it

I bought the Epix when it came out a month ago to replace my FR945. I am very pleased with the watch- the display is bright, easy to read, and great colors. The battery life has been as advertised with a bit over 6 days in always-on mode and about an hour of GPS activities a day. It does everything my FR945 did and more plus a WAY better display. It's a great watch.

Cool watch. The body is not scratch resistant at all.

Upgraded from my Fenix 6 pro. Love the display on the new Epix! Only issue I found so far (about 1 month since purchase) is the the BT connectivity is about 5-10ft shorter than my Fenix 6 pro. Wearing the watches 24/7, you can tell differences like this connectivity issue. The heart rate sensor seems to show blank( - -) often as well. Otherwise, an amazing watch and battery life is great (display always on feature off)
