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.

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.
