I purchased my Mk3i after my dive vacation last November to Raja Ampat. I already had the first MK1, but was excited to get the air integration with the new Mk3i, Used it on my last vacation in April in Maldives. Great computer. easy to read and adjust settings. less hoses.

The battery last forever!

I ordered the galexy ultra watch when it came out and after waiting for ever for Android to make a ultra watch with a watch that was diver friendly i was super disappointed! So i gave that one to my mom and took a chance on the mk3i after watching a few reviews. There is not alot of information about this watch on features that are not dive related. But let me reassure you it does everything the other smart watches do. The notifications music controller... the only 2 things i have found that it lacks is the ability to call due to no microphone and it will not tell me my phones battery level. The other gripe i had is how hard it was to find bands for this. I wanted a nicer titanium band and only really found one..... overall inam happy with it and love being able to go well over a week on a single chage.

Best fitness watch if you're a diver

Can't beat Garmin technology, so many cool features like subwave messaging, being able to use a transmitter to see your tank pressures, as well as tracking so many metrics during your diving.
also makes for a great fitness watch, track your hiking, cardio, golf, tennis, you name it, you can track it!

awesome watch, but should have gotten the 51mm. some features missing with the Smaller size. use it for everything from Whitewater kayaking, free diving, cycling and rock climbing. everything works great, accuracy is pretty good for on wrist tracking. the interface is not very intuitive but it takes some time to get used to it. over all id recommend this for anyone who's an all sports performance person.

From the mountain top to the depths of the ocean and every day in-between

Awesome watch that works for everyday use as well as your wildest adventures. From scuba diving in Bonaire to the high mountains, and every bike ride, hike, and day in-between this watch gives you what you need without being to large for comfortable wear. This watch only ever leaves my wrist to charge once a week.

I recently purchased the Garmin MK3i, primarily because I was looking for a device that could track my sleep and heart rate, and also serve as an upgrade for my dive computer. After using it for a while, I can confidently say that it has exceeded my expectations in many ways.
First and foremost, I love how the Garmin MK3i looks on my wrist. The sleek and modern design not only makes it a functional piece of technology but also a stylish accessory. It feels sturdy and well-made, which is exactly what you want from a high-end smartwatch.
The MK3i is packed with features. The sleep tracking is incredibly detailed, providing insights into the quality of my rest, including the different sleep stages. The heart rate monitor is accurate and helps me keep an eye on my cardiovascular health throughout the day.
One of the standout features for me is the workout tracking. Whether I’m running, cycling, or doing a gym session, the MK3i tracks all my activities with impressive accuracy. The data it provides is comprehensive and helps me understand my performance and progress over time.
As someone who enjoys diving, the upgrade on the dive computer is a significant benefit. The dive mode is intuitive and provides all the critical information needed underwater, making my dives safer and more enjoyable.
Although I’m thrilled with my purchase, I must admit that there is still a lot to learn. The sheer number of features can be overwhelming at first, and it takes time to explore and understand everything the watch offers. However, the effort is well worth it, as each feature adds significant value to the overall experience.
Overall, the Garmin MK3i is an excellent investment for anyone looking for a multifunctional smartwatch that excels in fitness tracking and diving capabilities. Its elegant design, robust build, and extensive feature set make it a standout device. While there is a learning curve, the rewards are worth it. I highly recommend the Garmin MK3i to anyone in the market for a high-quality smartwatch.
