Bought this watch in June and am very happy with my purchase. Has very good battery life and the functions are useful for my everyday life. I would highly recommend this watch despite its high price compared to other watch models. It looks slightly bulky if your wrist size is small but its still worth it if your not too fussed on the size.

Best watch yet, dress it up or down so it never has to come off! Always up to date, tracking of location and back tracking when on trails is super handy (several times!) sometimes the gps takes a while to kick in starting a run but usually this is due to high cloud cover. Can’t fault the watch at all!

I adore the Fenix 5s. I love the step counter, the GPS, the heart rate monitor and the Connect app. It's got everything, it works really well and I find it really motivating to beat my step goal every day. Not only is the function great, the form is beautiful. I have the white one and it's very elegant. It looks like a watch, not a big chunky thing like the Forerunner.

Have had for 7 months now, puchased it for few features & has so many more features that I dont even use. Had never owned a fitness device like this before & is making me do a lot more walking, improving golf. Puchased Sapphire version & looks as good as the day I brought it.
absolutely love it!!!!!!!

Having been a long time garmin user (athlete) Ive considered a watch in the past - but wasn't sure i would get a lot out of it. I received it for my birthday and haven't taken it off since. accurate for measuring sleep data (as an athlete that information is essential for me) I can also track) my training, racing and it connects to my power meter and heart rate monitor (it does have one built in also and it is failry accurate i must admit). Find it really user friendly and you can alter and adjust the screens easily enough too. Have connected it to my phone so i can see messages on it which is better when Im out training than having to pull my phone out.

I bought this after my apple watch died on me. Was expensive, but worth it. It calculates everything, movement, calories, steps, etc. The extra map techy map on it I thought was silly at first but I have actually used it. Great that it also links up to your phone and I have also linked it with my Garmin body weights

The new smaller size is great, with the look of the watch being a bit less ‘sporty’ so I wear mine every day. The tech is fabulous, love all the features and the additional heart rate monitor that I didn’t have in the fenix 3 has opened up a whole new world to me! Only slight down side is battery life.

This is a fantastic watch. I'm glad I got the 5X as I've found the mapping capabilities useful a number of times.

You can download lots of useful watch faces and apps, like a surf tracker.

The Garmin Connect desktop app isn't great, but you can do most things with the mobile app (wireless) + third party apps.

I've had nearly every Garmin multisport watch they've released and the Fenix 5X is the best so far.

I've used it for running, cycling, swimming, gym and golf and it's performed impeccably. HR works well, though it's not as accurate during HIIT style weight training.

I love the look and feel, though it is definitely a BIG watch!

My only critique would be that the digital watch face isn't too bright, particularly indoors.

Overall its great!

Bought this watch for running stats and some 'smart watch' functions. Works well at what it is meant to do. Only downsides are that it is large (even the 5s on my skinny wrist!), heavy and the screen is sometimes difficult to see in direct sunlight. However, as it has buttons rather than a touch screen you don't have to spend much time looking at it.

It is sleek design that I can wear it everyday.
The best thing about this watch that I don't have to reset every single day, the battery can last for up to 2 weeks com compare with the other smart watch this by far is the best.
On the downside the apps that support with this watch is not so many because I use it as a daily basis instead of Sport watch

For those who are active this watch is perfect, has a much better heart rate monitor than other watches on the market and its multiple settings and modes will make it useful no matter what sports or activities you partake in, the battery life is fantastic, although when the back light is on the screen can be a little hard to read. Overall a great purchase and I would highly recommend.

I bought this watch as a fitness watch. I wanted that little extra motivation to run and swim and be active. I specifically bought this type because of the surf edition I could download to it. It's amazing the way it tracks each wave and length and how far I've paddled. Would highly recommend this product if you are looking for the best fitness watch out there. Bonus ! It looks great. I have the plain white and it goes with everything.

At the start of 2018, I swore I would take the opportunity to live better. As a symbol of this promise, I was given this watch to help motivate and measure my success.
What I did not know is how amazing this bit of kit is. From customization to comfort to the sheer number of available features, this unit is beyond amazing! I joined up a few challenges and found this has had a major impact on my motivation. Since having the watch, I've lost four kilograms and walked more and done more most days.

Stylish in design and beyond functional, this wrist worn GPS unit is a must have for the adventure enthusiast.

I love this thing.
Was looking for a watch that was able to give me a day to day date like a fitness tracking device with steps and HR however with the same tech to be able to track performance more specifically when training or competing. The Garmin Fenix 5X can do it all and hits all of the sports I use it for and has app ability for those that are a bit more obscure, yet to do something I couldn't track.
Battery Life is great and the Golf features usually found only in Golf tech as well as maps on the go are great.
Has a price tag to it but would recommend to anyone
