Overview
Not a basic step counter, this round Garmin watch pairs AMOLED color with built-in GPS and health tracking. A fiber-reinforced polymer case and silicone band keep it light, and buttons back up the touchscreen.
Sleep coaching, Body Battery energy monitoring and a long list of sports apps give fitness guidance on the wrist. Phone notifications and Garmin Pay add everyday use, though payments depend on region.
Who it's for
A fitness-minded wearer who wants guidance on sleep, stress and workouts with a phone nearby. Larger-wristed users and those seeking cellular independence should look at other models.
Pros and cons
- Long battery life
- Water resistant for swimming
- Wheelchair activity modes
- Calls not part of the listing
- Pay depends on region
- Several spec entries look mislabelled
Performance notes
Battery runtime of up to eleven days applies to ordinary smartwatch use, and GPS workouts shorten it. Heart rate, sleep and stress readings are estimates from the wrist sensor, as the description notes. Notifications arrive from the paired phone.
