Why We Like The epix Gen 2 Smartwatch
The epix Gen 2 Smartwatch smartwatch ensures we never question what our watch really can do. This accessory can accomplish a startling amount, even outside our workout routines. It can store music for phone-free listening, provide contactless payments while we're on the go, and track our location with multi-band GNSS technology. Premium materials ensure a long-lasting partnership, and the style pairs fashionably with our luxury 'fits from the gym to the office.
On our active days, this watch monitors heart rate, oxygen levels, sleep, stress, hydration—the list goes on. It manages our training schedule, offering suggestions of when and how to work out next. And recommendations are just the beginning: the Epix is pre-loaded with on-screen animated workouts that we can follow along with. Topographic maps—plus maps of ski resorts, golf courses, and more—keep us on track no matter where or how we get out there.

Long battery life
This watch is rugged and surprisingly light for its size. I changed the band to a nylon hook and loop style and sleep with it on every night. I barely even notice it.

Good improvement over previous Fenix 6
Battery life WAY better. Adding color really helps visibility. Tracking heart rate, especially during activities is somewhat better but still requires a precise fit on the wrist and a tight wrap, tighter than comfortable, not quite a tournaquet but almost .. blood supply to my hand is definitely lowered. Still, beats wearing chest straps and all the problems there.

Awesome
The Epix 2 is a major step up and a terrific watch. Defiantly worth the investment and time to learn all that it can do.

I love this watch!
I love garmin products and the Epix is now my favorite. The colorful display is so nice and the watch offers so much data. It's a great tool for any tool bag. I am very impressed with the battery life evergreen with the display. I would highly recommend the Epix.

Amoled display is great and watch is solid overall
Great watch with some incredible features (Amoled display, glances, HRV, PulseOX, and other training information). If the training data from my Garmin 830 fed easily into the Epix Gen 2 for cycling ability and VO2 max, it would be a 5star rating.

So much to learn
When I got the offer to get this watch, I felt that I couldn't pass it up. I had my Fenix5S for about 5 years and really appreciated its durability. The Epix has the touch screen and I find it a lot more interesting to get the information I want off of the watch (like the weather of the day, some of the basic workout information (average heart rate, power, etc)). I am trying to recover from an Achilles Tendon problem that has derailed my training and that is tempering my review. I enjoy being able to get my Spotify playlists on the watch and listen without needing to drag a phone along. It wasn't a simple process to get the Spotify app on the watch but it was doable. The morning report is pretty cool. Overall, this is a feature packed watch that I hope I can make the most of with my training. The screen has pretty decent resolution and colors.

Pleasantly surprised
I upgraded from a 920xt. I know. I was overdue. I was the type to only wear for training. It was a tank and still is and is why I stick with Garmin. I also have an iwatch and am an iPhone user. Bottomline, most impressed with the battery life and screen clarity and brightness. Makes iwatch seem like generations back. Garmin makes the superior training watch. I am a triathlete. The iwatch is a better partner for your iphone, although i do not miss it or feel like i need to go back to it whatsoever. I am actually looking to probably gift it or sell the iwatch. I do have the white band and its eye catching and looks sharp but it does attract the dirt and grime. I already told the kids its a great father’s day idea to put some new or different color garmin bands on the gift idea list. The Epix synced up with my sensors on all my training equipment easily. There is a little learning curve to the buttons and customization but nothing crazy.

Vivid display, awesome fitness tracker
I’ve been bouncing back and forth between the Fenix and Apple Watch for years, and the Epix has far and away the most beautiful display. The navigation features and pre loaded maps are what make this watch better than the Apple Watch Ultra. As long as you’re willing to trade voice to text capabilities from your watch, you’ll get a 15 day battery life, on a lightweight watch, with a bright display, and a ton of info at your fingertips.
