Hard To Figure Out

I wish I could change my watch face to have all the things I want. Not all the things Garmin wants. And a better how to instruction. I fell as though it’s trial and error to figure stuff out and I will only use a fraction of the functionality.

Might've Saved My Life Already!

Got my Epix2 Pro to replace my Fenix 6 in December. Coincidentally, I'd been having strange symptoms of something going on with my body for the last couple months (I'm 63 and in good shape). On a whim, I downloaded the ECG app, tested myself with the easy-to-use Epix2 and it detected AFib. I followed up with a trip to the hospital and sure-enough...AFib. If untreated, stroke is the biggest risk. I'm now on blood thinning meds and starting to address the condition the right way with the goal of resuming my outdoor activities. Really appreciate a great product and thanks again for getting this stubborn guy into proper medical treatment!!

Everything I Expected!

This watch was everything I expected. Took a chance and bought this 'renewed - like new condition and that is exactly what arrived - looks and acts brand new! after 30 days so far so good! I bought this to replace my Garmin 245 Music so I would not have to using a charging puck halfway through an upcoming 100K in Arizona (I am an old and slow back of the packer!). So far on my long runs it barely uses much battery and I fully expect to still have over 50% left at the end of the 100K. I am still getting used to all of the features. 31 days of battery life - insane! Using the flashlight more than I thought I ever would. Enjoy reading the morning report when I wake up. Also like that it turns itself to 'quiet mode' at night - nice feature. love the amoled display and the fact that I can use the buttons for traditional walk though or use the touchscreen. My biggest worry was the weight and size but honestly I don't even know it's there even when sleeping with it on at night and it does not look too big on my wrist (medium size build).

Great Hardware Plagued With No Software Support.

The Garmin Epix Pro Gen 2 (51mm) is a beautiful piece of hardware. The build quality is excellent, the watch feels premium on the wrist, and the AMOLED display is vibrant, sharp, and easily one of the best screens Garmin has ever put on a device. Battery life is also impressive for a watch with a display this good, and from a pure hardware perspective, it’s hard to find much to criticize. Unfortunately, the software experience doesn’t live up to the hardware. Feature updates and software support feel stagnant, especially given the price point of the Epix Pro line. New capabilities and improvements often arrive slowly or not at all despite the device clearly having the performance and hardware headroom to support them. As a developer myself, it’s frustrating to see such capable hardware held back by what feels like conservative or fragmented software rollout decisions. Garmin should absolutely be able to port newer software features to this device, and in many cases, there doesn’t seem to be a technical reason not to. Over time, this gap between hardware potential and software evolution became hard to ignore. I found myself expecting more innovation and refinement from a flagship product, especially one positioned as a premium multisport watch. Ultimately, that disconnect is what led me to return it. The Epix Pro Gen 2 is a fantastic piece of hardware, but without stronger long-term software support and more meaningful feature updates, it doesn’t fully justify its premium status. With better software commitment, this could easily be one of the best sports watches on the mar but as it stands, it feels like a missed opportunity

4 Out Of 5 Stars Due To Being Overly Complicated

The watch is feature rich but the operation of the watch needs improvement by the development team. It is simply overly complicated and when researching the watch for use for tennis and cycling I find the information needed to support each sufficiently was lacking. It is a runners watch first and foremost it seems and needs improvements for other sports. The menu's need improvement and explanation of the features should be on the watch and not in an online manual. Simplicity is needed for the end user. There is great data but it is presented poorly. I continue to give it a 4 out of 5 stars because of the amount of data but the user interface needs improvements greatly.
