Top smartwatch and sports watch

- Marieke, 12 March, 2025

I use this watch for running, cycling and strength training. Works very nicely, the watch offers a lot of information and also tells you all kinds of things about your rest and recovery. Also a multifunctional smartwatch, works quickly and conveniently with your phone

Comfortable watch with a great screen.

- Erwin, 10 October, 2024

Bought it to better monitor my running sessions. Previously I used a Forerunner 245 and I must say that this is a huge step forward: the device is light as a feather and the touchscreen works wonderfully smoothly. GPS connection is fast and very accurate. Have to say that even this Forerunner has trouble with GPS as soon as you run under trees. Still a shame for this money. Great battery on board!

Pros & Cons

Bright Amoled touchscreen
Fast GPS fix
Lightweight
Many different sports
Space for up to 500 music tracks
Garmin Connect has unclear menu structure
Menus of watch itself take some getting used to

Recommended if you're looking for a running watch that can do just a bit more than the basic models.

- Hylke, 5 June, 2024

Likes it well, owned for several weeks now and training with running. Reasonable schedules at Garmin's suggestion and reliable measurements in terms of heart rate and GPS.

Pros & Cons
