    I had to replace my strap due to wear and tear... Still the best smart/sports watch I've had. Great video. 👍

    I have been wearing/using the Fenix 3 since July 2016 non-stop only taking it off for charging; it is by far the best sports watch I could have ever bought, looking forward for the 6!

    Awesome video, have had mine for 2 months now.. are you planning on the 1 year follow up? I think the wear and tear only makes the watch more personal.. its been through some adventures!

    Why don't they do a Steel one with no paint on that won't show the scratches! Not moving from Suunto until they do.

      Chris G thats what holding you from switching fm suunto? I have fenix 3hr. Honestly the scratches are minor and they add rugged character. But you wont get it pretty suunto boy

    I only do HIIT at home and cycling, running, football outdoor. Do u reckon getting this a wee bit of an overkill?
    I've had the Samsung Gear S3 but where I live doesn't support eSIM so gotta return it.

      just go for the standard 5 or 5s, not overkill as this is an awesome watch

    I got the gf 5x sapphire and the ionic, trying both, I live ionic to track sleep
    I need to return one, which one you guys recommend to keep and what to return?

      Miguel Cesar, I hope you endend up returning the Iconic, Fitbit is behind the curve compared to Garmin for reliable tracking. I'm trying out the Fenix 5x and VivoActive 3 right now and these make for a really hard decision to pick between.

    Cool video. Have been having my fenix 5 with sapphire screen for two weeks and am loving it. What's the watch face name?

    • @livingagoodlife4344

      thanks, everyone always asks me that but I change it now and again and forget the name. This one is called SOF configurable

      Living a good life thanks, I realize I’d I’d have read the contact below I’d have seen you already said, so thanks for the reply.

      Couldnt find that for the Fenix 5

    Considering picking one up myself. Are you able to use it when doing rock climbing or maybe bouldering? If so is the activity tracked out of the box or do I need to do more configurations?

    • @livingagoodlife4344
      @livingagoodlife4344  7 років тому

      yes I use it climbing, it can track calories by heart rate, wear a sweatband to protect it.

    • @ardowz
      @ardowz 7 років тому

      What activity do you select when climbing? From the icon I saw from videos about it, it seems that the climbing is a hiking type?

    I think it’s funny how people who do these Garmin videos put a bright light on it so you can read it. This watch is horrible at reading indoors.

    • @livingagoodlife4344
      @livingagoodlife4344  7 років тому +2

      i read this watch just fine outdoors, maybe try adjusting your screen settings. the light is on because of it indoors and i don't want to press the backlight all the time as the camera does not pick up the face as well as the human eye can.
