I'd been looking for a HR/fitness watch for a while and this definitely fits the bill. It took a little while to learn all the controls with the buttons but now I can scroll through and select the information I want quickly and easily. It syncs with the app well and I've also found that easy to use.

After adjusting to the watch, operations and all its functions, I can honestly say it never comes off my wrist. The silicone band is comfortable for long days and the 42mm bezel is a great fit for my wrist.

Exactly what I'd have hoped for, very clever watch and great garmin quality

This watch's GPS is completely unreliable in Chicago. I have tried to get help from Garmin several times, only to be told that it can't be expected to work well around water.... So I guess if you're in Arizona then go for it!

Garmin is historically a company that's been all about fitness and activity tracking, so when buying one of its devices, you pretty much know what to expect. The recently-released fenix 5 series makes absolutely no exception to the rule and puts the focus entirely on fitness, but without forgetting...

Does not want to pair with Garmin connect. Will have to return. Very disappointed.

Brought this in the blue as I loved the strap colour and needed a watch with great GPS but unfortunately it just wasn't suitable for my needs. Depth to deep on my wrist , not touch screen and white shoulders rather than metal. I couldn't justify it being ￡200 more than the vivoactive 3 for my needs.

Besides perhaps the Apple Watch Series 2 , the fenix 5S has to be the only quality GPS watch out there for women. Sure, other watches exist that have women as their target market, but they either exclusively look like a sport watch or a smart watch or they outright suck.

Stylish design that's the right size for smaller wrists; Built-in wrist heart rate monitor and solid activity tracking features; Advanced features for running; cycling; swimming; golf and outdoor activities; Robust smartwatch features; Easy to use with great battery life

Expensive; No Wi-Fi or sapphire display unless you upgrade

Garmin announced the fēnix 5 series at the start of 2017. The idea behind the range being three core watches, the 5/5S/5X, that offer everything you could want or need from a multi-sports watch – and in that mission, the American company have absolutely succeeded.

I just love this watch in every way. I bought it at the newly discounted price and that is why i gave 5 stars to value, otherwise it was too expensive at the original price.
