Not happy with the watch. Way too hard to figure out. Definitely not user friendly.

Great Running Watch

I've had the watch for about three weeks now and I am loving it. I was looking for a basic running watch and this is perfect for my needs. Having used smart watches in the past this lacks in features and screen quality but that wasn't what i was focused on. Great battery life, good bright display while running, customizable screen layouts and access to suggested runs and coaching plans. Good value for money.

Didn’t like it. Returned it.

I was hoping to replace my forerunner 35. But Garmin, like running shoe companies, discontinued my favorite model. This watch was over loaded w/ features for my needs. Didn’t need menstrual cycle, text messages, weather, music, health info, etc. All I want is my mileage, pace, pacing and time. TMI Some of us don’t want a kazillion features.

TOO MANY Functions on Each Button!

It’s too complicated. I had a tachycardia incident due to high stress. Figuring out how use the the watch to monitor my heart rate was adding to my stress, so I returned it. (My sister has one, and has no trouble with it, but even after she tried to help me with it, I couldn’t manage it.)
