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.
  • In addition to registering your route, the watch also navigates you in the right direction.
  • You can't use this watch for contactless payments or to reply to WhatsApp messages, like you can with other Garmin watches
  • The color of the watch is more anthracite than black.
  • Garmin isn't compatible with all Huawei smartphones.

Great product in this price range

  • Very extensive possibilities for both sports and outdoor enthusiasts
  • Very useful for my work as a soldier due to the extensive GPS functions
  • Can take a beating
  • Less accurate heart rate during strength training

A fine watch for sports and outdoor enthusiasts with very extensive functions. The watch is very light and fits comfortably on the wrist. Combines well with the Garmin Connect app, which gives you good insight into all your health data.
