HOPEFULLY mine arrives in a couple of days. CANNOT wait to see the screen and put the watch to work. I'm downsizing from my current 6XPro Solar and looking forward to seeing what the difference in screen size is like. I've only had the 51mm Fenix's so hope I'm not disappointed. Good video boys.
Thanks for the great reviews on the Fenix 7 / Epix 2 / Apple Watch 7. I'm a cyclist, not a runner, so I think with my Garmin Edge on the drop bars the Epix 2 will be more than I ever need. There is this one question left that I have to make my decision final; how much time does it take to fully charge the Epix 2. And is there some type of fast charging available like 30 minutes of charging gives you an other 8 hours of battery. That would make the Epix 2 come even closer to being the perfect watch. Thanks again!
I charge my watch using a GaN charger from Anker that's around 60W. So it will max out whatever the max charging capability of the watch. I usually just charge my watch for 20 mins - 30 mins and I get tons of battery out of those minutes... I'm speaking like days.
During ultras I'm usually using turn-by-turn navigation. When you discuss using maps with regards to battery life (e.g. multi-band + always-on = 15hrs), are you also using turn-by-turn navigation? Something else to keep in mind is that battery life will deteriorate with age, so in twelve months time maybe the Epix will no longer last the ultra distance.
Dc rainmaker has given a better explanation than I could on why this is unfounded. It’s in the comments on one of his recent uploads. The fenix suffers from degradation too. All battery rechargeable tech does
@@30mattdavies Thanks for the reply. I'm not sure why you think my statement is unfounded, it's well understood that batteries deteriorate with age. It could be that you're referring to my comment "maybe the Epix will no longer last the distance"? If so, I don't think this is unfounded either; when my Fenix 6X Pro (not Solar) was new, Garmin's claim for a GPS activity from a full charge was 60 hours, but an ultra I ran at the time using GPS and navigation took 15 hours and the watch finished with 9% charge (I remember this because the non-6X runners I was with either had to turn off their GPS or had their batteries die, and at the end of the race they were asking about my watch). Turn-by-turn navigation obviously uses additional power. I've ordered a 7X, I'm definitely not risking a smaller battery for the sake of a shiny sparkly thing.
Gents - quick note that from your watchface you can press and hold a data-piece and it will take you to that widget. You mentioned that you tap it and nothing happens..!
Thank you for your awesome and detailed review, guys. Are you still in that partnership with COROS? Do you think there are a few valid reasons left to buy a Vertix 2 over a Fenix 7 or the Epix? That AMOLED display is a real game changer I think…
Pleeeeease could you tell me what that nice blue strap and watch face combination is? I’ve just got the Epix and I LOVE it but I would really like to have that blue set up! Great video(helped me make up my mind which to get)
Hey! It's the Gamin Lakeside Blue quickfit strap, and the watch face is one of the presets available on the watch so you can change it on there, just have to change the accent and data colours to blue :)
@@TheRunTesters Yyyesss!! Thanks a million. I have Covid (huh) so have plenty of time for changing watch screens and online strap ordering hehe. Thanks so much! I love these videos!! So chatty and normal.
@@TheRunTesters I’m sending my Epix Titan back, i’ll go with the 7 Titan Solar. If i want a really good screen i go the AW7, for Sport i prefer a functional Watch. The Epix is great but always on display really hurts the battery. With pulse Ox at night i only got 4 days of battery life with AOD.
Epix 2 is great. 10 days battery life with activities 5 days a week and aleays on set to "off". I use vox when sleeping. I find it silly keeping a watch (or a TVas a matter fact) "always on" if I am not watching it.
I don't have an index finger ring. Can I still wear an Epix? jk, I have an Epix and love it. I'm coming from a Garmin Fenix 5 Plus and the Epix battery is better, so I'm happy there.
Calling this a Fenix with an AMOLED screen is a gross oversimplification. For example the epix can not load other maps (marine etc) that the Fenix 5/6/7 can. Can mislead buyers to get this, thinking only difference is the screen and battery life.
@@mattbarrett6186 It is not listed as compatible on Garmin’s site. I checked after I placed my order. Confirmed by Garmin customer service. I was even transferred to a map division agent. So for now it appears that the epix can not. Have to believe it is software limited and could change in the future. What I want is an AMOLED Fenix or Descent, not a model that is “close”.
It can be useful for SUP on new lakes , running out to snorkel sites on the waverunner in the ocean (like the keys), kayaking inland or open water. Navigation in Mangrove areas, etc. I understand I might be in the minority but you can install them on the Fenix, Descent, D2, MARQ, why not epix? Other maps like Pacific Crest Trail detailed maps, Boundary Waters detail for a canoe trip. Garmin has a ton of specialty maps that are useful, just not on the epix…
Thanks for the in depth (and early) review! Coming from a Fenix 5+ Titanium DLC I was very much in doubt between the Fenix and the Epix. This review was the final push to order the Epix 2 (Titanium / White) from the Garmin website.
Hi Guys. I love your channel. Your reviews are excellent and enjoyable to watch. I have just upgraded from a Garmin Fenix 6s to the Epix Gen 2. Loving it!
Why does nobody mention that there are problems with the watch(epix2/fenix7)? If you look in the forum you will see countless posts about individual software problems. A lot of random reboots, poor swimtracking, wrong altitude and wrong sleeptracking, map details missing, screen goes off and a lot of other bugs. Even with the latest update there are a lot of bugs. This watch is around 1000$ - i want it to run smoothly and not super bugy. A lot of youtubers are reviewing this watch but no one mentions those bugs - why ? Just have a look at the garmin forum and you will see what i mean. Hope this helps people to get a other point of view.
Is the AMOLED display on the Epix 2 noticeably better than the display on the Venu 2? I notice the resolution is very similar but as good as the Venu 2 display is, I suspect the Epix 2 one is better/brighter (given it is also about £500 more expensive) I know it's comparing apples with oranges when it comes to the other functions, but was specifically interested in the display differences
Thanks for great review 👍🏼 Will stamnia work with a pace pro plan? Let’s say that I’m running a marathon and have the gps file for the route, will stamnia work for the whole race?
Hi, love the review and will definitely upgrade my Fenix 3 to the Epix. Do you know if they will bring out any more titanium models. I love the fenix 7 mineral blue and the grey titanium models and would love these in the epix.
Great video guys. I know that the Epix is on a different level overall, but how does the screen and mapping compare to the Suunto 7? I now use this watch exclusively as both are stunning, but realise the sacrifice in terms of battery life\performance etc.
Im 99% sure I will never utilize the Epix 2 in the way it deserves, but damn will it be nice to have for my exercise and outdoor life over the next several years.
I’m loving all the content you guys have had this week. Did I hear a 955 in Amoled prediction there? Value is always subjective. But, Garmin is inching towards the prices you pay for a high quality quartz or medium mechanical watch. Those are not trackers, granted. But, you could keep using something like the G-Shock Mudmaster GWG2000 fifteen years from now while you would have long since tossed away the Epix 2.
great review but sadly, even tho I really want this fab screen, I don't think the battery life will last for my ultras using turn-by-turn nav and music and being a slow runner. I do have a question tho. Re the wrist-based heart rate monitor - if you have a small wrist are you likely to get a more accurate reading with a smaller watch? Does fit have anything to do with it? I bought the Fenix 6 X and returned it coz the HRM was just mental and the pace monitoring was useless when doing track work. Thought maybe for the Fenix 7 I should get the middle size watch. What do you guys think? Thanks
Ultras are definitely a niche user so I'd go with the Fenix Solar option. From my research a better fit watch does give more accurate HR and if you have small wrists this will be something to watch for. May want to get a bluetooth chest strap for the most accurate HR that works with the Fenix 7
It’s funny the race predictor predicts slow for you. My fenix6 race predictor says my 5k should be 19:15 and my actual PB is 21:59, 10k predicts 40:34 and PB is 47:15, HM predicts 1:30:38 and my PB is 1:50:32. Running my first marathon in March and Garmin predictor is 3:24:32. If I can get between 3:45:00-3:59:59 I’ll be over the moon. I feel like such a loser based on Garmin’s predictor 😞.
Nice watch, but well, a Fenix 6 Pro plus an iWatch (or other OLED smartwatch) are still cheaper. Not jumping.

I am so happy with the MIP screen especially when I am active outdoors. The MIP screen will look the same in a couple of years. The AMOLED destroys itself over time.

When is it available to buy?
Iam sold on the epix 2 cheers guys
