Bought a Garmin Epix Pro Gen 2 Titanium (47mm) 2 days ago and I'm using your tutorial to discover the different functions and parameters of this wonderful watch. Thanks a lot 🙏 Greetings from Brussels-Belgium.

I have a Fenix 7X. I commonly do strength training activities and the Garmin's ability to identify what kind of reps I'm doing is uncanny. I love it.

Maybe it's because my Fenix 6 is the first watch I've ever had of this nature, but it's amazing to me it's able to accurately guess what workout I'm doing, and even count most of my reps at all. I see some people say it's bad, but to me it's magic. I mean like, it's a tiny wrist mounted computer and it's able to count crunches with my only input being "strength training"

I bought a Garmin Vivosmart HR like 10 years ago or something, and it also accurate could tell what activity I was doing, while my garmin 735xt does not even seem to care at all, cause I have to select it myself.

Bought the new epix right after this video came out and can't thank you enough! I love this watch! I still use my Instinct 2x solar tactical for work since its more rugged but after work when working out, hiking, or doing land navigation I always throw the EPIX on! I wanted the new Tactix 7 amoled but i get all the options the epix doesn't have on my instint like jump master options. And I was able to get 2 watches for the price of 1.

@@mafib1 I went from the apple watch ultra to the Garmin Fenix 7 pro (returned it for the epix pro gen 2) because my eyes were straining reading the MIP display. As far as sleep tracking goes, I feel like it's pretty good. Apple's might be just a tad better because Garmin thinks it's a nap when I wake up at night to use the bathroom and go back to sleep, but overall, it's not bad. It hasn't been so bad that it's messed up all my other data. I just use it was a guide and not a governor to training. I know I slept for a decent amount per night and if I feel good then I'll stick to what my training plan says! Coming from someone who has had almost every generation of an apple watch outside of the ultra 2 I'll say Garmin is light years ahead of where apple is in terms of a sports fitness watch. Apple has it beat as a smartwatch, but most people buying a Garmin don't really care about the cellular activity. We want it to tell us how our training is impacting us lol! Overall, I couldn't recommend it enough man, hope this helps!

It should be noted that not all stock watch face data fields can be changed/customized. It took me a minute to figure this out when I first got the watch; I chose a face I liked then went to customize the data fields and the only options were apply, change color or delete. I though I needed an update or something but it turns out there are a few that cannot be customized.

I was debating the same thing. I was thinking 265, Epix, or Epix Pro. I ended up going with the Epix with titanium/sapphire. It was on sale for $200 off. I opted not to go with the pro. It would have been $300 more,and as far as I can tell, the only thing the Pro has different from the regular, Epix is the LED flashlight and the updated heart rate sensor, which I don’t really care about because I usually wear a chest strap anyway. I believe the 965 will have almost identical functionality, the only thing you will be missing is the more durable materials of the Epix with the titanium, sapphire, and metal parts. 965 is 599. I got Epix titanium/sapphire for 699.

That's a looooot if details, thanks for taking the time to make this video. One thing I am not fully clear in general for Garmin watches (I still don't have one, I am on the way of buying) is how do you deal with their apps and Strava. Usually I use Strava kind of like facebook for sports, I like logging my activities there. But I see Garmin activities are supreme. So for example if you go on a hike, do you start both a hiking activity on the watch and another one in Strava? Or is there some optikn that those can work simultaneously?

Well if you aren't really using your Apple Watch for it's smart functions, you won't miss them. What you will gain is a lot longer battery life, better fitness metrics, sport profiles, and the Epix has built in topoactive mapping with points of interest. My favorite feature on my Fenix, no phone needed, works without cell, I can set it to my local coffee shop and it will plan me a route, similarly if I'm out on a trail I can tell it to route me back to my starting point. Very neat.

Silly question, perhaps... I mainly do walking/hiking. When I start the activity, by default I can change between a digital watch/time, one view with heart rate, speed, etc., etc., and one view with the map. I don't like the digital watch face. Can I change it? E.g., to the one I normally use when I do not log GPS data, etc? I'd like to duplicate the normal watch face, but with slightly different colors for the numbers, etc., just to let me know that I'm in training mode...

Is it true the Sapphire titanium has maps pre loaded and the Stainless steel base model doesn’t? If true do you just download them easily enough?

Any chance to see Endurance Score and Hill Score on the Fenix 6? Or should we rule out new features for such old devices?

Sadly, no plans there. It'll come to the Fenix 7/Epix (non-pro) series, the FR955, and the FR965, but not the older Fenix 6. :(

Hi, I’m still wearing the original original Venu so this would be great upgrade for myself! Would of liked ECG though as V2! Does it have training score on it, or did I miss that?

I’ve been using my watch for almost 3 weeks doing indoor cycling, swimming strength training however vo2 max is still showing no data/no trend. How can i record vo2 max data without running or cycling outdoors?

Difference in maps? GARMIN says the Fenix has maps downloaded and epix does not. What does this mean in usage? Any other differences not generally shown or known? When using the maps is the fenix better due to the screen staying on vs the epix always turning off while trying to figure out what you want to do? Thank you.

Thanks for an in-depth overview of this watch. I do have one question. You mentioned you can change the order of your at a Glance - videotick 4.50 but don’t demonstrate it or explain home. Can you please let me know how to do this. Thank

A couple ways to do it: hold middle left > appearance > glandes > then select one and you can move it up/down

Hi, thanks so much for the great quality of the video! The official update has just released and I can’t find inline skating among the new sport profiles on my Fenix 7s, is this normal?

How is the new Apple watch Ultra 2 against the epix pro ? Does it cut the competition now ?

@22:52 Inline Skating is nowhere to be found on the Epix Pro 😢. I think is a bug or something, I saw that other users are also complaining about this on Garmin forums. Great video

@@Dcrainmaker version 13.22 that is the last one that can be get by calling "check for updates" on the watch in US. It is the 47 variant but I don't think it matters

21:19 Can you explain why did Garmin separates the sports actions into regular one and than a ‘Favorites’ category at the bottom. Obviously and such as you did, we are going to put our favorites on top and not in the Favorites category
@Dcrainmaker
@Dcrainmaker Жыл бұрын
I think it's mostly because the top portion is only a few sports long, so it's more of a UI reminder that those favorites continue on.

can you change the garmin epix 2s black background so it instead has a white one? i think the clock seems very nice but the black is just making me depressed (not the clock face, the background / theme as you work yourself thru the clock)

I just picked up an epix pro. This is also my first garmin. It did not record my sleep last night. Is there something I need to do for it to realize I'm sleeping?
@cedric182
@cedric182 5 ай бұрын
Have you set up a sleep schedule on the app? I don’t know if that’s even necessary but it sets the watch to sleep mode. Other than that, my watch has been very accurate.

I was hoping to use an epix for triathlon and mount it on my bike as I did with my Fenix 3. I am surprise to know that the display will automatically shut down if not on my wrist. Is there any way to circumvent this problem with the AMOLED display?
