Epix Gen 2

Fenix 7 has an older HR sensor, no LED flashlight except on 7X, and only has a MIP screen, the AMOLED model was called Epix Gen 2. Fenix 7 Pro / Epix Pro are basically the same as Fenix 8, with all the same sensors and internal hardware, and LED flashlight on every model, the main differences are: F

Ha! I've been an Apple Watch user since they came out. I had some FOMO with my ultrarunner husband and daughter with their Garmins, so I got exactly that Epix Pro Gen 2. It lasted maybe 3 hours, and I hated it so much I returned it right away. I barely got through setting it up and knew it wasn't fo

I have the Epix Gen 2 and have been very happy with it. 3 years on and the battery is not what it first was, but that happens with all tech devices. I get that newer models and more updates , but my watch still does everything I paid for initially. If I was to upgrade again now, the only tangible fe

Here is my standard response, typed a while back, with a link to pics showing my point: When sizing a watch don’t turn the Watch toward your face to judge.

I owned the Epix 2 and now the Fenix 8. Bothing being AMOLED I've had none of these problems. I wonder if this person is challenged or had a defective watch. I used Always on Display and my watch responds immediately and I have had zero problems ever seeing the watch face. I had MIP prior and see no

I have a Garmin Epix Gen 2. It's a fantastic watch and the battery life is amazing. I much prefer it over the Apple watch I had before switching to android. The other great thing about Garmin is their customer service. A couple of months ago (21 months after buying the watch ) one of the buttons sto

I went from Apple Watch 7 (2 years) to an Epix Gen 2 (2 years) and now an AWU3 (4 months). I miss some things from my Garmin but ultimately cared more about better integration with my phone and my Workout app of choice (Fitbod). Things I miss: week long battery life 5 physical buttons (you can disab

Exactly how I approach it. Apple Watch Ultra (first gen) on one wrist, Epix Gen 2 (titanium/sapphire) on the other. Apple Watches, for me, represent the best-in-class smartwatch experience for Apple users. It's also a cellular backup (safety, streaming audio) for me. Part of that is how much Apple l

A lot of people who "hates" AMOLED display does not own a current gen display. I've had original Venu and that display was not the best but my current Epix Gen 2 works mighty fine on both batt life and display brightness/readability even after 3 years with over a thousand activities.

If in the US, Garmin certified refurbished Epix Pro (gen 2) sapphire (white) units are dirt cheap (<$400 USD) at gpsnation. Either Coros or Garmin will get it done. If you don't care about NFC payments or Spotify et al., then Coros has a solid offering for the price and battery life with less of a l
