This is a great watch I am going to be real for a

Posted by: Aaaaaa
I love this watch at the same time becareful when you buy new toys or things that are not benefiting you. I have done my homework on the brand of the Watch and all the features that come with it my goodness we would be here for a day. You got the timers, little things like a compass, being able to have this watch be a go go gadget watch is a game changer.
Before you buy this or anyone
Do your homework on what your purpose is with buying a good quality product.
Quality is better than quantity

Loaded with Features

While not as intuitive as an iWatch, this thing puts Apple to shame with durability. The partner app is fantastic and makes up some of the less user friendly watch widgets. In time, I’m sure it will be a piece of cake. BONUS!!! Download the GARMIN Golf app and the phone auto sends yardages to the watch with push and play features. Open the app hit start round and BANG! You’re golfing. Way cool. Good job GARMIN.

Not doing what it should - tech support not there

I can not get it to send heart rate to the phone continuously. It's a shame.
If only I could get tech support.... probably will return it.

Tough to navigate at first. After u get it it does everything u bought it for. Battery life is the best since I’m outdoors all the time.

Battery life is far superior to basic model. Cycling data is very accurate

Not Good

I bought this watch hoping for an alternative to the spendy Apple Watches, within a week it wasn’t functioning properly. No solar recharge would pick up on the heart rate, half the functions wouldn’t work.

The watch is solid and it has all the features I wanted from my forerunner. I enjoy using it daily and it's helped me learn more about my health and activities.

Bought this to replace a non functioning fitbit that was replaced with a broken one. Loving the watch and the app. Seamless integration with everything I use
