Strong battery life performance, Great Strava integration, Accurate heart rate data
Bland looking design, Some Bluetooth connectivity issues, Garmin Connect app needs refining

Can track running, swimming and biking, Very accurate location info, Comprehensive Garmin Connect app, Excellent battery life
