Perfect for data lovers

- Marissa 31 January 2026

Exactly as expected, though slightly smaller than my Samsung Watch. Still, I can see all the info well. You can customise everything through the app. It keeps track of everything in terms of fitness and sleep, which is the reason I bought it. It tells me if I am ready to exercise again or if I still need to rest. It shows if the workouts I am doing in terms of heart rate are efficient and if they are promoting my fitness level or not. It automatically customises the number of steps I can aim for per day so it is not too much or too little.

Pros & Cons

Band that comes with it is elastic, very nice
Fast charging
Long battery life, 5/6 days and 2 workouts
Touchscreen and buttons
Backgrounds are often paid

Perfect running watch

- Mathijs 12 January 2026

This sports watch is really recommended for the avid athlete. The watch collects a lot of data which is very valuable for your training. The music player works perfectly (if you have spotify). The GPS is also very accurate which is very nice for a run. The battery lasts super long. I use it with the always on screen and I charge it once every 3/4 days. I would have liked a golf sport profile though but I understand they need to save some features for the better watches.

Pros & Cons

Accurate gps
Bright screen
Huge amount of data
Light weight
Long battery life
No golf sport profile

Super fine sports watch

- Joyce 9 September 2025

First time setting everything via the Garmin app was a bit of a search. But after that, it is a user-friendly watch with many functions that are also useful for a mountain biker.

Pros & Cons

Clear display
Pretty watch for a woman too
User-friendly
Pricey
