Pros and cons

According to our smartwatch expert
  • The watch displays heart rate zones while you're working out, so you can workout with a specific target in mind, for instance to improve your stamina.
  • With GPS and GLONASS, the watch determines your location, speed, and route more accurately than comparable watches.
  • Is compatible with the sports app Strava. This means you get extensive analyses and can share your performance with friends and followers.
  • The watch doesn't support music storage, so you have to take your phone with you each workout.
  • Doesn't have a trackback function that navigates you back the way you came from.
  • Garmin isn't compatible with all Huawei smartphones.

Limited fit for interval zone training

  • GPS is accurate
  • Interval workouts only available for running and cycling.

My requirements for my new sports watch are simple: to set up workouts at intervals, with a signal function so that I know whether the pace needs to be increased or decreased.

When setting up the Garmin, I still run into limitations. First of all, interval workouts are only available for running and cycling. For other activities you have to set alarms, but that is only one zone for the whole activity. You do that in the watch and not - like the workouts - in the app, that takes some searching.

It is not possible to turn off the sound during an activity (you can with the simplest sports watch from other brands). Some things are also unclear. When creating a workout, you can choose Custom, for example, but it will not appear in the watch (because: no running and cycling). The usefulness of creating this workout eludes me.

It is also not possible to give an activity its own name, such as skating. So if I'm going to skate indoors I choose an elliptical trainer ;)

If you are outside the heart rate zone during an activity, you will receive a signal. Your target heart rate will then be shown on the watch for 5 seconds, so not your current heart rate. Inconvenient, because you do not see how far you are from the border. Moreover: if the upper limit and lower limit are close to each other, you do not know whether you have to go harder or softer. It would be logical and simple if the tone or vibration for the upper and lower bounds were different.

All in all, I do find opportunities to exercise with Garmin, but to be honest I expected more.

Bought a Garmin running watch as a backup and it does exactly what I minimally need: time, heart rate, distance, speed, laps. Also general activity and sleep tracking, but that is not a goal in itself. Works fine.

  • Many functionalities
  • Watch does not function properly

In itself it would be a good watch, if the software would function correctly. The watch's software is simply unfinished. On my watch, the time display spontaneously jumps to 12:00 hours, while I want and have specified 24:00 hours. While running, the watch displays the distance in miles. However, the watch does give a signal when full kilometers are reached. Eastern European texts also appear in a menu, while Dutch texts are displayed at other times. Contacted Garmin, known issues, we're going to do something about it. When? In the future!
