Garmin fēnix 6S Pro : Great decision

I owned a forerunner 735xt before and really liked garmin customer service and products so when 735xt died after few years i still wanted a garmin. Always like the look of fenix but felt they were huge so this series with different sizes suited my needs. Ordered 6 pro for the inbuilt music player. Perfect size, great watch, long battery life.

An amazing watch that has worked flawlessly with the ant+ cadence sensor on my bike, the bluetooth on my elite turbo trainer and the heart rate monitor with no drop outs.

It is a fantastic watch, the receiver is a keen road cyclist and it gives him all the information he needs, it even measures his sleep. As his garmin is paired with his mobile he receives his messages on his watch as well.

Battery is amazing still yet to try the mountain part.

Seems more accurate than fenix 3 i previously had. Loads of additional features.

High quality sports watch, makes the tracking of my activities enjoyable and can see the progress in making. Slightly heavy but expected as made almost entirely of metal.

This watch is amazing, truly is. The 6pro is everything i hoped it would be and more. I was expecting the watch itself to be quite big on my wrist but i was pleasantly surprised to wrong, it fits my average sized wrist without looking oversized. Set up wasn’t difficult, usual stuff like account and wifi setup. The personalisation parts are great, giving options for screen display, functions you use and even colour preferences for some bits. Battery is mega, i have charged once in 2. 5 weeks and used for an activity at least once a day every day. The app is good to use and gives accurate info.

I was sceptical about why it costs so much in comparison to other watches but having used it for the last few weeks, i’m sold. If you are obsessed with data, this is the device for you. It does far more than i need but the battery life and screen quality are great.

Great watch, maps are excellent. Connectivity, battery, music etc all a step above my old fenix 3.

I don’t think i’ll ever use all the features that the watch has. I’ve paired it with a brown leather strap which makes it look even more classy. Love the watch and recommend it 100%.

Perfect for a ladies smaller wrist. All bells and whistles if your into your multisports and the accompanying app is easy to use as a bonus. If your just after something to map your runs or to count steps maybe go so something a bit cheaper as you won’t need all the extras that your paying for with this watch.

Speed of delivery and quality of product – great.

After changing multiple smartwatches from apple, samsung, fitbits and so on. I can only say that i am sorry i did not go for the garmin to begin with. Would have definitely saved a lot of money. Battery life when charged says 21 days. With no activities, it would do it. If you use gps tracking, heartbeat broadcasting, navigating using the map it would still easily last you a good week and that is with hr running in the background. It is not heavy, straps start showing wear after time but definitely not asking for a change.

Clearer screen from the previous models. I went away without the charger for a holiday. Turned off some features and the watch was still going. The same can’t be said for apple watch. This is the watch that other manufacturers should aspire too. . And it looks like a watch.

Fantastic bit of kit upgraded from a fitbit . The garmin platform is very good and loads of information needed for fitness tracking. Not knocking fitbit by the way.

Battery life with/without music is excellent, gps 100% reliable and offers considerable more functionality than my previous fenix 5s.

This is my second watch from garmin, the fenix 6 is a quality product. It’s easy to use and provides excellent information about training statistics. I had a fault with the watch and i was really impressed with how garmin responded to the issue. They sent me a replacement without any quibbles. It is genuinely refreshing to see a company, in this day and age, who have supported the customer in such a positive way.

Fits well,excellent features. Had to look at you tube to get a better understanding of how it works.

Really happy with this watch. I had the 920xt but was fed up wearing a chest strap for heart rate monitoring. This gives heart rate monitoring from the wrist and adds loads more stats about workouts and maps and music.

Nice size, easy to use and good battery life so far give me the amount i’m using it for exercise activities.

After years with polar, i went the apple watch route and got frustrated. This is a great watch and glad i made the leap and got the’x’. Felt large for a day or so and still catch’s on some jackets but so worth it with the data. Make the move you wasn’t look back.

Excellent purchase, it is everything i hoped it would be .

Well built and reliable product.

Vodafone V-Kids Watch – Good idea, poor execution

Son loves his new smart watch. Well made, location accuracy not always the best but my iphone xs max is sometimes off too. The general location coupled with voice notification should be enough if we needed to local our son. Worthy purchase if you can buy it on offer like i did. Not to sure it’s worth the full rrp. Setup isn’t straightforward so be prepared to spend sometime setting it up. Once the product is all set up it really is a good piece of kit, it takes little time to go through the process with the vodafone sim but it is worth doing. It is easy to voice message and gives me peace of mind with the sos function built in, the games are a good feature to keep the little one entertained. The gps tracking works well with the vodafone signal and no problems so far. Love this, it’s a brilliant well designed product but the battery life is very disappointing. Esta muy bien, yo se lo he comprado a mis hijos y es casi exactoen la posición aunque podrian mejorar la interface e incluso ...

INIUPO Kids Smartwatch : A++++++

My 6 year old son loves this watch. Charging and adding music is so simple. The battery holds its charge brilliantly for days. The option to add 10 contacts is great as well. The strap is very soft and comfortable to wear. I bought the gifgaf 2g sim card and it works perfectly. Nought for my son and he absolutely like it. The strap is soft and the screen is very clear. Battery life is good but he keeps fiddling with watch so it drains the battery a bit early. Apart from that, happy with the purchase. I bought this watch fory kid for her birthday , she loves this watch it has many attractive features with games in it with music and camera and many more , she’s is much in love this watch predent, it’s colour is very vibrant i highly recomnf it to buy. This is really good watch i brought it for my nephew. He was over the moon and really happy. Many functions on it and can also be used as phone, text message, camera. Shows time in both format digital and analog. Looks really good too a...
