epix Pro (Gen 2) Sapphire Edition, 51mm, High Performance Smartwatch, Advanced Training Technology, Built-in Flashlight, Whitestone

Best watch I ever owned! Does everything right. Love the light, battery life, GPS, and ECG, and build. Good looking watch. Used it a lot during hiking.

I recently upgraded from the standard Epix 2 to the new Garmin Epix Pro (Gen 2) Sapphire Edition in the 51mm size, and I couldn't be happier with my decision. It was absolutely worth the upgrade! Here’s why I’m so impressed: The Screen Size & Durability: The jump to the 51mm display is noticeable and fantastic. The larger screen real estate makes maps easier to read on the fly and stats more accessible during workouts. Combining this with the gorgeous, virtually scratch-proof Sapphire display provides great peace of mind. The AMOLED screen remains unbeatable for clarity and vibrancy in all lighting conditions. LED Flashlight: The integrated multi-LED flashlight is a game-changer—it’s far brighter and more functional than expected, especially useful for early morning runs or finding things in the dark. The Overall Experience: While the Epix 2 was already a great watch, the Pro version feels more refined. The combination of the larger size, upgraded flashlight, and enhanced tracking capabilities makes this the ultimate multisport watch on the market. Verdict: If you're on the fence about upgrading or choosing between the Epix and Epix Pro models, I highly recommend the jump. It’s an investment, but the quality of life improvements and robust feature set make the Garmin Epix Pro (Gen 2) Sapphire Edition a superb piece of technology. I am very happy I did it!

The Garmin Epix Gen 2 strikes an ideal balance between premium smartwatch design and hardcore multisport functionality. The stunning AMOLED display is crisp, vibrant, and easily readable even in bright sunlight, giving it a sleek and modern feel without compromising outdoor usability. Battery life is surprisingly strong for an AMOLED watch, lasting anywhere from 6 to 16 days depending on usage. GPS performance is top-tier, with multiband GNSS support and detailed topo maps, making it a great companion for hiking, running, and backcountry navigation. Health and fitness tracking are comprehensive—heart rate, SpO2, sleep, stress, and advanced performance metrics like VO2 max and training readiness are all built in. It feels rugged yet premium, especially in the sapphire or titanium editions. On the downside, it's expensive and may be overkill for casual users. Also, while the battery life is excellent, it still trails behind some MIP-display watches like the Fenix line when used continuously outdoors. Overall, the Epix Gen 2 is an outstanding smartwatch for serious athletes and outdoor enthusiasts who also want a sharp, modern display. It is my everyday watch now.

A watch made of very high-quality materials. Sapphire and titanium. The battery lasts a week. Comfortable to wear (takes some time to get used to). This is the best watch I've ever had. Garmin is the best sports watch company in the world. The watch supports Hebrew, which really surprised me. Highly recommended.

I am very happy with my Garmin Epix Pro Gen 2 watch. It replaced my old Garmin Fenix 3, which still worked fine, but all the extra health features and the OLED color display (much more readable - bright and colorful), with longer battery life, made the Epix Pro Gen 2 too much of an upgrade to ignore, and at a much better price point than the Fenix 8 (the additional features of the Fenix 8 did not matter for my use). Since the Fenix 8 now features the OLED display, it is unlikely that there will be any additional generations of the Epix line, so if you don't need the add'l features of the Fenix 8, the Epix Pro Gen 2 is a great option while they are still available.

My first smart watch, though I've been using Garmin GPS watches for hiking and biking for decades. This watch is really awesome and gives me HR data during my training activities, as well as 24/7 living. The sleep insights are very helpful and seem accurate. It is pretty complex, but watch a few online videos and you can easily set it up how you want it. I would definitely recommend it.

I've owned several Garmin watches in the past. This one is by far the best. The features for the price are quite a value, the visibility of the display is incredibly good, especially If your eyes are getting older. The ECG is it great addition. The only thing I miss is the solar charging feature of other Garmin washes.

Got this after my phoenix 7 solar started losing battery power after 2 years. This has been a nice upgrade! All the same features but the colors are way more vibrant! Almost went with a phoenix 8 but couldn’t pass up this price!
