    Love almost everything about this watch! The color scheme, apps, and gps satellite abilities. It tracks all the details on a hike and can even direct you back to the starting point. I wish it was touch screen but it’s not because it has a sapphire glass however, that means it’s more durable and scratch resistant. It was on a great deal for Black Friday $649. Only complaint is that it is a bit heavy in weight for my small wrist.

    I love it! I had an Apple Watch before but this is way more solid. The sapphire glass means that it can take a beating without missing a beat. I have a tendency to hit things on walls but this guy has no problem with it. The GPS is of course wonderful. It takes a bit to get used to the software. The faces available are nice but they are not as customizable as Apple and some have to be purchased.

    Beautiful watch sexy and sleek. My other half loves it and she is an avid runner. It offers better stats vs the Apple Watch. Only thing is I wish it would play Apple Music

    Excellent watch! It does have a high leaning curve and not likely useful for those who don't like technology. I used it off grid for tracking, elevation, navigation in Glacier and the North Cascades National Parks.

    I love this watch! I had a vivoactive for a long time. I like Garmin products for the GPS and ease of use. I haven't used it hiking yet, but it's great for tracking all kinds of activity. It's durable and comfortable.

    Better than Apple. More running metrics and very compatible with Garmin HRM. Will never go back to Apple Watch again.

    Garmin has done it again! The fitness metrics on this watch are the best in the industry. The watch has a bit of a learning curve, but once you got it done, it makes sense and is easy to use. While this watch may not be on the cutting edge for smart watch features, although it does do a ton of them, it goes well beyond in making up for it with fitness tracking. If you're serious about training, running, swimming, biking, triathalons, etc. this is your watch. My only knock on the Fenix 6S is the battery isn't as big, but if you have a smaller wrist or dont want it as chunky, then this is the trade off.

    Purchased as a gift and also have my own. The Fenix 6 is an excellent all activity tracker and shines when utilized to track running. The golf feature is amazing as long as the course is uploaded in Garmin. A bit pricey yet you can generally find a sale. Battery life is amazing.

    Its an awesome watch. I have colleges that have the fenix 5x and it is do huge and bulky they hit it on everything. This watch is wonderful and does everything. I would give it excellent but the price is way to high if you get it through Best Buy. I payed $840.00 and and it is another $75.00 or do for the inc. Plan if you get it. All and all I like the watch just think for the price just go for something else. Like an apple. Much cheaper in the $400 range.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
