Easy transition and upgrade from an Apple iWatch
Battery life is amazing, I love being able to adjust the watch faces to see the stats I’m interested in tracking. My main focus is tracking my walk distances, as my dogs age I don’t want to push them too hard but I want to keep us both healthy and active along with keeping track of my cycling activities. It’s so nice not to have to worry about running out of battery life half way thru the day like I would with my iWatch. I was already a Garmin Connect app user since I ride with a Garmin Edge 830 and I love that unit. The Epix has so many great features that I’m learning more each time I have a spare minute to watch more youtube videos on it.
Thank you for your review.
Epix Pro Rocks!
I absolutely LOVE my Epix Pro (42mm) Light Gold/Sand band. The AMOLED display is gorgeous! Love the new Endurance and Hill Scores too. Use primarily for running. This is my first Epix purchase (previous watches were Fenix 7S (Black Titanium), Fenix 6S (Rose Gold/White Band), and several Forerunner 235/245s. Epix Pro by far my favorite to date.
Thank you for your review. Jenny
First Smart/Fitness Watch
Bought it a few weeks ago and like it so far. The heart rate sensor does not seem to read all the time. For example, Ill be working out and know my heart rate is not 78-90, Ill move it a bit and it will jump to the appropriate heart rate, and then slowly go back down. This happens more during strength training and not very confident in the readings. For the price I would think it would be more accurate during training. Its pretty easy to get use to and I can easily get to the right information on the watch when needed. The durability seems great as I have accidentally have knocked it on a few things and no scratches, breaks, or scuffs.

Excellent fitness and golf tracking
Coming from a Fitbit this Epix 2 Sapphire DLC carbon titanium blows it out of the water in terms of fitness tracking. Sleep scores are accurate. Training readiness is a helpful feature to determine how much rest is needed between workout days. The golf tracking and app are literally game changers. Exact yardage for clubs on course is tracked and averaged over time. Also provides maximum yardage for each club. My only criticism is regarding the cosmetics. Although the DLC coating is durable, the titanium bezel is not. I barely tapped the watch against a counter and now there’s a small dent in the bezel. Otherwise pleased with this device.
Thank you for your review.
Bright screen, clunky interface
I have owned Garmin watches in the past, which were actually easier to use and more configurable, such as the original forerunner 450, and used it as a cycling computer, programming that watch to scroll through three different screens continuously. For Its time it was a brilliant watch, but the main problem was the battery life and especially screen brightness, which are obviously related the good news about the Epix pro is the brightness of the screen, this is an outstanding advance, undoubtedly related to better battery capacity The bad news is that that previous Level of configuration is difficult to replicate with the Epix Pro As pro athletes we don’t need all the goofy “ training readiness” type stuff, so maybe it’s not the right tool for the job, and maybe the “Pro” in the name is meaningless hype. The sleep function is cool, but not unique. The body battery doesn’t make sense to me yet. Furthermore, navigating through screens is exceedingly non-intuitive, and getting from viewing results or active monitoring versus setup is a random Hunt and peck exercise. One of my buddies on a recent climb in the Alps had the same watch, and he could not help me nor himself either. I’m going to try and look at some of the third-party cycling apps to see if there is more help there, And I acknowledge that buying a watch this complicated just before three weeks of hard climbing in the Alps is not an entirely fair test I really want to love this watch. It’s not completely terrible, but really falls a short of being a great watch. Kinda sad when the programming flexibility of a watch from the same company 10 years ago is better than what the current designers are putting out now, in the name of advancement. Keep trying Garmin!

Upgrade from Fenix 5
Bought the Epic Pro Gen 2 Sapphire as a Father's Day present to myself. Had been very happy with the Fenix 5 I had for several years and wanted the AMOLED display. Features are very similar. I use the Strength, Walking, and SUP apps the most. They work well and have better features and can be customized easily. The only negative is that it seems to take a very abrupt wrist gesture to get the display to activate and show the time. I tried to find a way to have the display on all the time to no avail. Also the overall frame is a little smaller that the similar Fenix, so I might have opted for the 47mm vs the 42.
Thank you for your review.
The epix Pro (Gen 2) is a powerhouse
The epix Pro (Gen 2) is a powerhouse. It’s not just a smartwatch. it’s a full-on adventure companion. If you’re serious about fitness, outdoor exploration, or just want a premium wearable that doesn’t cut corners, this is it. After spending time with the Garmin epix, I can confidently say it's one of the most impressive smartwatches I've ever used, this watch delivers on nearly every front. The AMOLED display is absolutely stunning—bright, crisp, and easy to read in any lighting. I went with the [insert size: 42mm/47mm/51mm], and it feels solid yet comfortable on the wrist. The build quality is premium, especially with the titanium bezel and sapphire crystal option. Garmin packed this thing with features: Heart rate, sleep, stress, and respiration tracking are all incredibly accurate. The new Endurance Score and Hill Score give deeper insights into my training. GPS performance is top-notch thanks to multiband GNSS perfect for trail runs and hikes. The built-in LED flashlight is surprisingly useful. I’ve used it during early morning runs and even as a backup light while camping. It’s one of those features you didn’t know you needed until you have it.
Great watch
Just got this, is my first smart/gps watch...so far very impressed...was able to figure out most everything I wanted so far, next is to a course...I bought this for a trip this spring to Switzerland and wanted piece of mind with my hiking ...few things so far...surprised at 2 hiking locations it didn't detect the trails...but yet my local walking path did...hoping all my trails in Switzerland show up. Also, I had Amazon music....after may attempts gave up and just switched my service to spotify...and was so easy to set up. I love all the health tracking...especially the sleep as I'm not a good sleeper and the watch confirmed that. I like the flash light, so handy in a pinch! I know the epix gen 2 pro 42mm is new....but some snazzy bands would be a addition especially the elastic bands. Overall super happy with my purchase.
Thank you for your review.
Fantastic watch!
Purchased a few weeks ago prior to a trip to Colorado to replace an aging Apple Watch. So impressed with the features, the AMOLED screen, and the battery life! Setup was not quite as intuitive as the Apple Watch, but still pretty straightforward. Also took about 24 hrs of use to get used to the different buttons, but after that it’s rarely left my wrist! Did I mention battery life??? It’s truly amazing. I’ve used the watch for walks, runs, and hikes so far, and it’s accurate and has so many great features and ways to track your workout. It’s exactly what I needed to kickstart my workouts. If you’re on the fence about a Garmin, just pull the trigger. You won’t regret it at all!
Thank you for your review.
Top of the line
This is my 4th Garmin smartwatch and the leaps they’ve made in the last 10 years are incredible. Compared to my previous Fenix 6, the epix pro 2 is next level. On the run heart rate data seems much improved. Sleep tracking seems a bit more in line with how I felt the night went. I have exactly 0 issues viewing the screen in direct sunlight, a common thing you’ll hear about any watch with this type of display. The display itself is absolutely a joy to look at. The battery life of the 51mm is incredible, even longer than my Fenix 6 in gps mode. And the 51mm doesn’t look that much bigger on my wrist than the 46mm Fenix did. Overall I could not be happier with my choice in buying this watch!
