I started following you years ago bc your lulu reviews were so in depth and honest….your garmin review is no different :) Thank you and all the best to your family.❤❤

[@kellyyager1]

Aw thank you so much!

[@jamiebetker4137]

Just would like to reiterate this as Kelly’s reviews have never steered me wrong. So detailed, thorough, and helpful. Thanks Kelly!

[@allisonwakham6876]

Just want to say I’ve had my Garmin for 2 years and have seen no deterioration in battery life 👍👍

[@bethanypendletonphoto]

I’ve had 3 Garmin watches and I love them and the data.

[@bnelson52]

Only a little way in on the video. I have only tried Apple watch and have been curious about others. Mine started dying too and I read online to restart it totally. I did that and it got a little better, but still not the same as the first year. You know you can do voice text too on Apple Watch by clicking the little microphone on the bottom right of the text window. I can’t use that tiny text tool either. This so probably a dumb reason but I haven’t gotten the Garmin because I’d rather have a square watch than a round one lol. But thanks for reviewing it, you do have me intrigued.

[@kellyyager1]

@@bnelson52 yep I used that a lot too! I just didn’t mention that since they both have that feature and more often I used that touch pad because I was doing a contact nap with one of the girls lol and needed to be quiet!

[@cynthiagamboa3278]

Does it connect to Apple Fitness the way the Apple Watch does?

[@ginja1109]

Ive been extremely interested in this model of Garmin so this was great! Im a current FitBit user and I love it but its lacking in some features and some features that it has dont work as well as I would like. My hubs has a Garmin and loves it. Been thinking about making the jump to Garmin but hard to justify with the price (Canadian here!) and because my FitBit still works at this time. Thank you for the detailed review!

[@maivuong4548]

I got my garmin a couple days after you but I just learned that there is a setting for walk/run detection! Go to your settings>activity tracking>auto activity start>turn on. For walks it defaults to 10 minutes, but you can change it to 5 minutes and after the 5 minutes of it sensing the walk it should automatically start tracking

[@maivuong4548]

I also switched from apple watch so I was so happy learning about this feature

[@hdtravel1]

The Oura Ring rocks - dump your big bulky, heavy, distracting, Smart Watch and get a cool - sleek - minimal Oura Ring. I love mine so much.

[@jessicawilson1016]

I’ve been going back and forth on this garmin watch and have been wondering if I could call/text with my iPhone so thank you for doing this review

[@raegananderson4]

I honestly didn’t love the Garmin, but I think I’m just so impatient that I hated the acclimation period 😂 I did not like the feature of strength training with it trying to count my reps and such, but I’m pretty sure there’s a way to turn that off. The sleep was super inaccurate, too. One super minor thing that also annoyed me was how I couldn’t see what time it is while I’m working out. I had to check my phone or exit out of the workout. Sometimes I’m on a time crunch, so I would want to see what time it was, but I couldn’t do that on the Garmin. I ended up returning it & stuck with my Apple Watch. I would agree with your Oura ring review tho - I use that strictly for my sleep and cycle since going off birth control, and I love it so much! I just use it for such different aspects compared to my smart watch. Love all the fitness trackers available these days! I wish I liked the Garmin more because I love the sleek classy look of it too lol

[@sheenaj3951]

I would love a Garmin vs Whoop review.

[@Sof.ivanko]

I got a cover for the Oura ring so i can lift with it. I find it to be very useful!

[@georgevadnais3516]

For every sport = Garmin all the way. For smart features = Apple watch for Apple phone, samsung galaxy watch for samsung phone. I have both. Samsung watch 6 44mm and a Garmin forunner 965. I use them for over a year.

[@katiejones8828]

Does the Garmin have any comparable to the Apple watch's "goals" like movement ring, monthly challenges, etc.? And does it give trends like the Apple watch does?

[@shannonhollaway24]

So I have a fitbit and I am curious if I should switch to the Garmin.

[@LeaT0322]

Thank you so much for this! I’ve had it in my Amazon cart for a few weeks waiting on your review. What about your notifications on Garmin? Do you have to receive all notifications? Email and different apps? I heard a while back that seemed to be people’s frustration. I leave my text notifications on at night for emergencies but I don’t want email notifications and such.

[@hales_baldwin]

wanting to stop wearing my Apple Watch and just get the oura ring…but worried about the accuracy of exercise on it? thoughts on that??

[@lindsaymansen5484]

If I already have an Apple Watch and I have a bit of money to spend, should I do garmin (been thinking about the trade) or get the oura ring for added data?

[@victorianeedham5524]

Can you do a video to respond to text messages on your garmin

[@MirandaGonz]

Did you have your oura ring while pregnant? I’m worried about swelling lol and I’ve heard to size up? Is that true?

[@kellyyager1]

@@MirandaGonz had it but did wear it all that much for that exact reason lol - I totally could have just worn it on a different finger but the size wasn’t perfect so I just ditched it towards the end. Definitely missed it though and glad to be wearing again!

[@jt9058]

My sister in law and I also tested the accuracy of the Garmin vs Apple Watch. We went in a track so distance and mileage was already accurately laid out for us. Long story short is Apple Watch was almost to the step accurate to the distance on the track and the Garmin was wildly inaccurate. We even double tested it by swapping devices - she wore the Apple Watch and I wore the Garmin - and same thing. Apple Watch is more accurate, much to her dismay. For the longest time I told her Apple Watch was better and she argued Garmin was better. Accuracy is most important to me, so I’m sticking with Apple Watch. I agree battery life is not as good - I have to charge it daily - but I’m fine with that. Apple Watch for me!
