epix Gen 2, Premium Active smartwatch, Health and Wellness Features, Touchscreen AMOLED Display, Adventure Watch with Advanced Features, White Titanium

I had a Fenix and sold it to purchase an Apple Watch Ultra which I still have and enjoy using. However, while the AWU is a great smartwatch and has far better interaction, notification and connection to other Apple devices the AWU has horrendous batter life and it's fitness tracking is not as good as Garmin. Both watches have their place and I'll keep the AWU as it does have it's place. Regarding the Epix G2, the amoled screen is excellent, bright vibrant color, works well enough in direct sun and still, even with AOD enabled allows for multi-week battery. Compared to a day and a half on the AWU this is amazing. Workout tracking, step tracking and mapping are great and work as well as the AWU. Also I prefer that the Epix is round, watches should be round. Once the weather gets better I am looking forward to comparing the Epix G2 to my Garmin Edge 1000, if the EG2 works well enough as a cycling computer I'll likely sell the Edge as I don't need two cycling computers. Overall I'm very happy with the watch, it does many things excellent, some things good. If there way interaction with notifications, like an Apple Watch then it would be the perfect device, alas Apple will never allow that.

Very high quality device. Great battery life. Everything is customizable right down to every little window in my picture. Each little circle can be changed. It is a bigger watch but it is hard to get this much into a smaller device. Plus, for the maps and display, you want it a bit bigger. Only complaint is the price. It is just a bit expensive but watch for sales. It is not so bad on sale. Still a great quality device. I would buy it again. I found a second complaint. When running on a treadmill, it would sometimes stop tracking distance. If I ran 5 miles, it would record 2.6 miles. It just stops sometimes. Not always. Probably 1 of 5 times. For that, it lost a star. REVISED: USER ERROR. THERE IS A TREADMILL OPTION. I FOUND IT LATER. ADDING THE STAR BACK TO THE REVIEW. I had purchased another Garmin watch, Instinct 2 Solar,with the same features but I had difficulty reading the display without reading glasses. That's a great watch too just not as easy on the eyes. This is much much better. I can at least see it although, still is better with my glasses. The display is gorgeous. The picture makes it appear to have depth. It doesn't appear quite as 3D as the picture shows but still is a gorgeous display. Everything you see on the face is customizable. Including choosing different colors, displays, etc... just a very cool watch.

got this half off. it feels like a premium smartwatch, as it should. i was coming from the venu 2 and while i don't notice too much difference in general use the gps is more accurate, faster to lock location, etc. battery life is also great, around two weeks between charges if i sit around at home or about 1 if i run frequently (context: 10-20mi runs). weight is barely noticeable to me. AMOLED is beautiful and the sapphire screen is unscratched

I love my epix 2. So many built-in features and I use many of them. The sleep tracker help me the improve my energy. I'm now working on my cardio an love the heart rate tracker.

Excellent smartwatch, just like new, no scratches and battery 100% for a refurbished product. Seller Totally recommended.

At the beginning I was very happy and all looks promising, a week later back button stop working, I Googled a bit and see that I wasnt the only one who has this and it might related to using it in water environment. A day before I shipped it back, the "back" button return to work some who. So now this watch is under microscope to see that this defect not returning. The good, the screen is amazing sharp and it is an impressive watch. hanging around with this watch for 2 months - Great watch, fun and clear

Works excellent

I've owned several Garmin watches over the last few years, starting with the The main reason that I purchased this watch, starting with the first Instinct, and then up to the Fenix 6. They all had impressive battery life and ruggedness that the Samsung and Iwatch don't. As my eyes age though, the screen on the other Garmin watches was difficult to read in low light, and you had to push a button to use the backlight. The Epix fixes all that for me. The large OLED screen is bright enough to see in any light, and with a flick of the wrist, the screen wakes up. Though the touchscreen works well, old habits die hard and I tend to use the physical buttons more than the screen. They work exactly the same as the Fenix. The usual suite of Garmin software and apps makes it a useful ecosystem to be in. The fitness tracking appears to be accurate, and while the sleep tracking may not be, it does seem consistent for me at least. I don't generally use the built-in mapping, because I usually have my phone and it drains the battery quickly, but the times I have used it, the maps look great and track properly. There are tons of watch faces to help customize as well. The bands are the same as the Fenix watches (not sure about the 8) so there are plenty of replacements on Amazon. And they are the easiest bands to change out as well. The battery is usually about 2 weeks at most, which is sufficient for me; it charges quickly and though it's not a month, it will do. The one complaint I would have is the charger itself. I dislike proprietary chargers, only in that I have to have an extra cable in my bag that already has plenty of extra cables. This is one watch that I think I'll use for quite some time.

Me está fascinado este epix 2. La pantalla amoled es sensacional, el sistema es rápido y las métricas deportivas de lo más completo. Es muy útil que pongas una fecha de carrera y te diseñe un plan de entrenamiento basado en tu condición física, nivel de VO2, sueño, recuperación, entre otros. El GPS se conecta rápido y es muy preciso, los sensores de Frecuencia cardiaca, podómetro, se conectan de inmediato en cuanto inicia una actividad. El material de la correa es suave y de buena calidad. El reloj no es pesado y es muy cómodo para correr, el día a día, dormir, ciclismo, yoga.

Got this on sale and it was the best buy i’ve ever made. love this watch. had 3 apple watches before this and will never go back. If you want to wear it while sleeping (it has a great sleep tracking function) then I suggest buying a soft 3rd party band to use at night (use the stock band for exercising). bands can be changed in seconds with the quick release so it’s super easy to change.

Bought this as an upgrade from Forerunner 255, for the display and metallic casing. It does a great job and has some extra features which are nice. The display is fantastic, with configurable brightness, always on and during activity setup. Battery lasts a bit more than a week, and I use it about 7 hours per week in GPS mode, power mode set to "normal". It is a bit big, but it fits under my shirts/suits sleeves, so that okay for me.

Läuft perfekt!

Well packed and arrive just in time as a father's day gift. Really love this watch. The resolution is brilliant and clear. Have been using it for the past 5 days and the battery life is amazing. Got this watch at an amazing price. Highly recommended
