  • GSHOCK Killer! GSHOCK Killer!
Color: Mist Gray - 2S Size: 40 MM Style: SOLAR Pattern Name: Watch
I have several GSHOCKs and this outcompetes them all. The quality of this watch compared to the GSHOCK MOVE is night and day. This thing punches way out of its price range. It works super quick, I think the button navigation is really helpful for if you’re doing something and don’t need to look to start a workout or something like that. Easy. Comfortable! Fits just right. I wear anything from a 39-44MM watch size and this is just right. I think the regular size would be fine, but the smaller look does the “sporty” look well! Great connectivity! Wish it didn’t have to sync with the app open, but it works well! Super happy it gives you a sleep score and recovery plan. Garmin gives these things for FREE with the purchase of the watch. No subscription or ANYTHING. Well worth the money!! ... show more

  • It is smarter than me watch It is smarter than me watch
Color: Mist Gray - 2S Size: 40 MM Style: SOLAR Pattern Name: Watch
I do really love something’s about this watch and a few I don’t. Love the battery life. Some things are hard to see. It has some features I need to watch a YouTube on. It does take some getting used to when I switched from my Fitbit. It does count steps well. Easy to sinc to phone. I have an apple. It is great to get a notice when in coming phone calls. I did get a different band one of the reasons I got it was because it is waterproof for paddling. For a smaller woman it is a good size. I need to spend a little more time getting it set to what I like but it does do the job pretty much right out of the box ... show more

  • Excellent watch with great features
Color: Mist Gray - 2S Size: 40 MM Style: SOLAR Pattern Name: Watch
I, like others was coming from a solar Atomic Casio that was pretty much bulletproof. The lcd display started dying so it was time for a change. The solar charging on this watch works great. If you switch it into battery saver mode it charges even faster. I do have most functions turned on full time so I get about 2 full weeks of use on a charge. All the features are great and intuitive, my only gripe is with the watch band. I have medium to small wrists and and I’m near the end of the band. I’ve heard you can order longer ones through garmin and Ali express sells the exact replacement bands for super cheap. ... show more

  • Best purchase of the year for me Best purchase of the year for me
Color: Mist Gray - 2S Size: 40 MM Style: SOLAR Pattern Name: Watch
This is the perfect smartwatch for people who need long battery, rugged watch, health tracking and don't want a whole second phone on their wrists. I pull around 10 days, with wearing it every day (except nights, I don't track sleep), with 8 activities ( weight lifting, hour and a half sessions), live hr tracking, full notifications, garmin pay, and using a demanding watch face. With better battery management and less activities, you can easily pull full 2 weeks, probably a few days more (garmin advertises 21 days) ... show more

  • Sleep tracking is bad
Color: Mist Gray - 2S Size: 40 MM Style: SOLAR Pattern Name: Watch
The smartwatch is great, except for the sleeping tracking features. It does not track naps... and more often than not, it thinks I'm sleeping when I'm up working late on my computer. Or if I wake up in the middle of the morning, it thinks I'm fully awake for the day, even if I go to sleep again immediately. ... show more

  • Small wrist will enjoy Small wrist will enjoy
Color: Mist Gray - 2S Size: 40 MM Style: SOLAR Pattern Name: Watch
Apart from the strap being alittle small and short, everything else seemed fine. Battery will last if you follow the battery saving tips online. Last around 10-14 days on moderate usage. No issues underwater. Took it swimming and it works both during your swim and after. Just air dry it and wait for it to dry before your next charge. On first look, the watch may seem like it's alittle too small on the wrist, till the point in fact you may feel like returning it. Over time, you will grow to like it. I prefer small watches. This is definitely not for you if you like big watches. Go for no "S" version. Felt that the software could be faster. Experienced lagging, at times, when starting activities. Don't really like it's garmin pay features as the options are very limited but could be only for me since I'm from sg. ... show more

  • Solar charge is limited
Color: Mist Gray - 2S Size: 40 MM Style: SOLAR Pattern Name: Watch
I started with a Fitbit and moved to Fitbit sense. When the sun kept frying my watch on hot day hikes I thought a solar Garmen may be the answer. Tracking my workouts is essentially the same. I found the Garman more accurate. My Fitbit was tracking more my wrist movement and would sometimes tell me I gained “steps” when I was rocking in a hammock. The Garman truly knows the difference from a “step” to just motion. Battery life seems to be about a week. I do track each workout and movement along with have phone notifications on. Am not pleased with the solar part at all. You need not just sun, but full direct super hot sun! Even with full sun, mine has been charging at 1% per hour with not all hours counting for the charge. For instance, I was running in full sun and the hour was not helpful to solar charge, neither was my spending time writing outside with my watch slightly turned away from the sun, however, if I face my writer upright in the pool I got the 1%\hour charge. The last two days I’ve been outside for at least 8+hours and no charge has occurred and I have been in full sun. My watch is not even 3-weeks old. The appearance is slim enough for my tiny wrist. The durability seems strong and rugged as promised by the Garmen, but I haven’t been long trek hiking since I got it. It has done great in the ocean, shower, and pool. I’m just saddened the solar feature is not working well. This may not be the best option for charging for anyone in the north states or people who are inside often. Backpackers may only like this if in the dessert rather than woods. However, the charge cord does work well and it takes from about 5 to 100% in about 2-hours. ... show more

  • Happy with my purchase.
Color: Mist Gray - 2S Size: 40 MM Style: SOLAR Pattern Name: Watch
I don't require much of this watch and probably don't use all the features to their fullest extent. It has a long battery life which was one of my top priorities. It tracks my steps and interfaces with the garmin app. The smaller size band comes close to being too small for me but it still fits, definitely measure your wrist if you are unsure. The watch face isn't too bulky. ... show more
