Each part is rated on one scale for every smartwatch and band, from reviewers' accuracy tests and measured battery life where they exist, what reviewers found, specs and owner reports. It rates the product itself, not how good it is for the price.

Pros

  • Heart rate close to two chest straps
  • Clean GPS tracks
  • 17-19 days per charge with near-daily running
  • Light for its size, with maps on board
  • About 20 days per charge with training
  • GPS distance close to a fenix 8 in races
  • Lighter than before, better navigation, offline music

Cons

  • No mic or speaker
  • Screen duller than AMOLED
  • Solar gain was far below Garmin's estimate in UK light
  • Heart rate ran high in parts of an ultra and some intervals
  • Weaker than the fenix 8 under thick tree cover
  • One size only, no AMOLED
  • Heart rate struggled in hard running
  • Tom's GuideSep 2024

    Heart rate tracked a Polar H10 and Wahoo chest strap closely except on very short reps, and a half-marathon GPS track was near perfect; outstanding sports tracking and battery for less than a fenix 8.

  • WareableSep 2024

    Marathon distance came within 0.05 mile of a fenix 8 and heart rate nearly matched a Polar H10 there, but it read high in some intervals and long ultra stretches; the end of battery worries for endurance athletes.

  • TechRadarDec 2024

    Multi-band GPS was about as good as a fenix 8 and Forerunner 965, and the newer heart sensor held up against a chest strap except in hard running; most of the fenix 8's tracking for less, if you can live without smart extras.
