Epix Gen 2

Garmin epix pro gen 2. If I had to get a new one right now, I'd get the new Fenix, whatever it is. 8? But I just wear it with bright silicone bands even with suits in court, because who cares.

Not the most frugal thing I know, I just splurged on myself with a new running watch, Garmin Epix Pro gen 2 sapphire. Ran be $450, and that is on sale. I run 1000-1500 miles a year and I like data. I think it will be worth it (and a lot better than the Vivoactive 4 I've been using since 2020.)

I spent lots of time researching which one would be best and it was a toss up between the Garmin Fenix 7 and the Epix 2, the difference being the EPIX has an OLED screen and 15 days of battery and the Fenix has rhe AMOLED and likely twice as much. Decided on the Epix Pro Gen 2 on sale at HSamuel and

I’ve used both back and birth depending on how much working out consistently I’ve been doing. Apple Watch is a bit more integrated with iPhone but Garmin is leaps and bounds ahead for fitness stuff.

As a data nerd, I really enjoy seeing my fitness progress over time. That includes my heart rate, resting heart rate, VO2 max, sleep, workout performance, and even weight management. I’m currently reducing weight and planning to participate to a HYROX event next year, so seeing my speed, distance, a

Damn and the scuff marks just age it like a fine wine! I’ve had great reliability with all of my Garmin devices over the years. Currently using an Edge MTB and Epix Pro Gen 2, they are both seemingly indestructible. The Epix literally keeps me healthy, and not so gently coerces me into training ever

I use the Epix Gen 2. I’m primarily a runner as well but cycling at least once a week. And I too just signed up for a Sprint Tri this fall (swimming sucks for me 🤣). The Epix works great. It’s a bit heavier than some of the other options but I like that it’s rugged (I have the sapphire version). I d

I have a Fenix 8 and a vertical 2 and here is what i think. Sleep tracking on the Suunto doesn't work for me. Sitting around and watch tv in the evening is considered sleeping with Suunto. Therefore a lot of metrics are not right since i sleep much longer on the watch than i really do. For hiking i

I bought my Fenix 7 Pro in December, and love it! It's a fantastic tool that gives me incentive to work out. That is worth the money 😄It's surely overkill for any mortal, but i still use it a lot, mostly for strenght training, pilates, calisthenics, cardio, for the eventual hike, listening to music

Honestly, having bounced between COROS and Garmin… I suggest looking for Garmin certified refurbs. They look like new and have a full warranty with Garmin.I just picked up an Epix Pro (Gen 2) Sapphire for $380 USD delivered!Why COROS didn’t work for me: After a a few weeks I found small annoyances t
