Poor quality control for a "premium" product.

Baught the watch to replace my dying Mk1. And what a good timing receiving the new watch for my Birthday !
I was pretty impatient to handel the new model but on opening I just notice during watch configuration a dead pixel in the center of the screen. A bright green dot always on :(.
Hopefully Garmin will replace this new device, but for the price I'm disapointed about the quality control of the device. Could be improved.
So disapointed for the delay, but the improvement from Mk1 is undeniable.

Great dive watch and more

Fantastic watch. I bought specifically for diving and it’s fantastic. We are fairly active and I also enjoy using it for swimming laps, running, biking, and weight training. I also have the Fenix 6 which was before Garmin added the touchscreen. Love my Fenix but really like the updates including how long the battery lasts on the Descent MK3i. The flashlight is also pretty awesome and I cannot wait to use it to get to and from the tree stand this hunting season especially in green light.
