Very nice.
I bought this model three years ago. Everything has been working great ever since. They're comfortable to run in. The connection to my phone works well, too. I listen to Spotify. The connection is reliable and sound quality is excellent.
Love it.
Got this watch as a gift from my GF, I had a whoop band for about 8 months. worked great Did it's job till it started having issue then whoops horrible customer service started. So I decided I would try Garmin, love the features love the fit, tracking is good and it links to all my apps I already have. Great service to boot
Still learning
I love my new workout watch. I'm still learning to use it, and all the functions on it, but it's a great watch. It has helped me to improve my run time, and paying more attention to what I'm doing besides running. I use to just run, with no clue of anything (time steps). Now, I am able to see and hear what's going on, causing me to not just move, but to move with a purpose. This watch is a great investment.
