First impressions:
1. The X version (the largest one) is unnecessary; it would look huge on my wrist. The regular version is enough.
2. The screen is very very very very VERY dim indoors. You can use background lighting, and that improves it. But outside though, it's very bright. Unusual but very useful.
3. You can't seem to turn off the screen (except for sleep mode). So it's always on. Unnecessarily so, but since it's dim indoors anyways it doesn't bother me.
4. The screen itself is tragic. Low resolution (260x260), only 64 colours. It seems like it's really not supposed to be used as a regular digital smartwatch, which sucks. Unfortunately, Epix 2 wasn't available with its amazing AMOLED screen.
5. I wish I could get a
brown leather wrist strap. Looks absolutely stunning.
It costs a fortune though.
6. I wish I could've gotten a Pro version, they have LED lights.
7. OS is Garmin's, and as I said, regular smartwatch features aren't its thing.
8. How good it would be if the store allowed you to try out devices before purchasing...
If there was one single thing I would fix, it's the screen resolution.
Will test it out, more to follow.
