Features great - screen not so much

The features were great but I couldn't deal with it not being touchscreen after having the vivoactive for 3 years. Returned it and got the Venu2

Awesome sports data device.

I've had my 745 for 6 weeks and used it in 2 triathlons. I really like all the features and apps and utility but my battery life is underwhelming. In it's current state, I will not get 4 hours during an event. I actually think I would like the 955 better as it's just a little bigger and has solar backup.

Best ever

I’ve never had a sport watch (fit) and it over whelmed me but now it’s my link to challenge my performance or lack of it. It logs me and I get information I didn’t know I needed but now it’s my life line. It was a bit $$ for my first watch but it’s well worth it. As my journey lengthens it will be my guide.

perfect tri watch

I bought this to do triathlons. I love the simplify of it. it has a much lower battery life than it said. I especially think the analytics with the activies is super fun to review. Love the ping my phone feature. The extended view onto my Garmin head unit on my bike is quite nice.

I bought this before my second half marathon, and haven’t taken it off since. Amazing features and the battery lasts so long!

Lean But Powerful...

It lets me move freely, I go out for a Run and don´t need to have my Cellphone because I have hours of Music directly on my watch; neither I need to have my wallet because of Garmin Pay...
