I assumed this band would take the place of a chest strap heart rate monitor which broadcasts to my Garmin Edge head unit when cycling. I was wrong. Disappointed.
Bought my Cirqa Band around 3 weeks ago. It has been very nice to be able to see all the features and metrics without paying any subscription which for me was the biggest draw to this over other alternatives on the market. Very comfortable and stylish, and overall a very happy customer
I love that its not tied to a subscription after p

So far I think its pretty cool. I have had it longer than 7 days and my HRV still won't load. The sleep score seems pretty relevant and I enjoy the body battery and workout meters.
Not sure how accurate all the metrics are yet, but it seems to be useful and encouraging to be healither.
Its comfortable and looks simple. Its not flashy or ugly.
I love that its not tied to a subscription after purchase.
I received the Cirqa three weeks ago and am really enjoying it. I got it to track my sleep and to measure activities when I am not wearing my Epix. I know my Epix can track sleep but it is larger and heavier and I am very aware of it on my wrist when I am trying to sleep. The Cirqa is a little on the big side but it is very light and once you get used to it, barely noticeable. The band is very comfortable. As expected, it incorporates perfectly into the Garmin ecosystem and I use it with my Epix and 1050. Make sure you select the device you want to use daily and for training in Settings in Garmin Connect. The price is reasonable and no monthly fees makes this a worthwhile data collector.
Bought this thinking it would be minimal and barely noticeable on the wrist. But it is the feels like I have a watch on my wrist, and I am a large wrist man It gives you good metrics but not as much as a watch Should have bought a watch as it feels like I’m wearing one and I would like the extra metrics a watch gives
The device seems to work well, however, sweating or getting the fabric band wet while working out makes it unusable. Rubber band or alternative from fabric would be nice. The fabric is good for sleeping. Over all after 2 weeks I like the device.
