Right decision

Definitely better GPS, activity and sleep tracking Boby battery is very useful and I believe I made the right decision buying it. That said it is not as easy to use as other smartwatches I've owned. Also, while I appreciate the need to collect and analyze data over time for accuracy waiting 3 weeks for HRV and other health stats for is frustrating.

Enjoying the accuracy of the metrics and the summary reports. Takes a little getting use to using the interface since this is my first Garmin watch. Would recommend Garmin over other health and fitness trackers.

Functional besides the glitch

I like it, very useful and functional. However, i'm not feeling the occasional glitch when i i'm tracking my workouts. I have to keep stoping my workout to reset it. Besides that, everything is dandy. Fix the glitch and this becomes a 5star plus

I bought this about 3 weeks ago and I love it. I never had to charge it in over a week. I will buy again.
