Garmin Fenix 5 (page 3 of 3)

User interface a little cluttered but what it does well it does brilliantly. Mountain biking, snow skiing, road cycling and measuring resting HR. Simply awesome. Plus battery life is well over a week. First time and it does exactly what I bought it for. It is a sports smart watch.

Just upgraded from my fitbit and this Garmin is great. I tried the 935 and even though it is lighter the face was so big on my smaller wrist. I customised my watch face via the app and have default for time, date, HR, steps and battery. Lots of stats and options. I think it would be hard to make use of all the features. The band and clip feel really solid. The band is also easily interchangeable. I bought a spare charging cord on ebay to have handy at work and can buy other bands easily. The battery lasts for ages even after using it with GPS. Very happy.

I got this via ebay camera store. It's a bit bulky, but totally worthed. The best bit (if you are familiar with garmin optical heart monitor) is that the sensor do not dig deep into the wrist. This is not the case with the forerunner 235 or the fenix3. I used to have the 235, but sold because it got a bit irritating wearing it all the time as the sensor was digging into the wrist. the fenix 5 do not have that. It also looks sweet as.
