Garmin EPIX PRO || 7 Reasons why it’s awesome!

It’s really hard to compete with a device like this. With many others, you are getting a lot of what makes this a fantastic piece of hardwear, but you miss the mark on some key areas. Mapping alone is worth the premium for many users. As of this upload date, they are on sale (at least in Canada and the US) which is a bonus. 👍

[@fun-ghi]

100% agree. Recently switched from the Fenix 7X Solar to the Epix Pro just because of the display. In very bright sunlight, the MIP is superior to the Amoled, but it seems to me that the battery lasts even longer on the Epix than on the Fenix 7X Solar(!)

[@itsbklol]

what did you get it for?

[@kmcel190]

Ended up scoring the standard 51mm for $649.99. I originally had a fenix 6x pro then upgraded to the non-pro EPIX last year. Didnt like the smaller 47mm size, so I gifted it to my mother. This is by far the best watch ive ever owned. Think im good for another 3-4 years 😁

[@Dogwalkerdave]

Sweet!

[@SquashPile]

Love mine. I had a 47mm Epix 2 and sold it on Swappa and bought the Pro when it released. The 47 was just too small for my wrist too. No regrets. I use the HRM Pro+ strap too. I think I use the flashlight several times a day now that I think about it.

Thank you. I had the Instinct 2X as well and it was a great device, but the screen was too small.

The instinct 2x screen seems smaller than the epix pro 51mm? I have the instinct 2x, love the durability and screen visibility. I also love the way the band fits.

To design a round Smartwatch or smart Sportwatch makes no sense, or is there a round Smartphone on the market. The watches in the past were only round because of the two pointers, turning cyrclewise.

AW to Garmin to AWU to now back to Garmin. I have the Epix Gen 2 and I love it. I want the Epix Pro in white - 51mm! I love big chunky watches! I had the AWU and was always looking for a third party app to give me all of the data Garmin provides. Garmin has it all in one app! You can view texts messages on your watch just not reply, and Tbh, I never used my AWU to text. Always had my phone with me to do so. Both watches are great, it all depends on your preference!

I have this but in the 47 mm and I love it! I am a woman with small wrist and bad 50 year old eyes. The 42 mm was too small for my eyes and the 51 mm was too big for my wrist. The 47 mm was perfect. I have been running since I was 14 and didn’t buy my first gps watch until I was 40. This has been my favorite. I do have the Suunto Race and Vertical. Like them but the Garmin is just easier to use. Had the Apple Watch Ultra and that was a joke for battery life. I tried the Coros watches but the gps accuracy was not impressive and pace was laggy. Great review!
