I evaluate after 1 year of use. Satisfied.
Lightweight and smaller in size (ideal for smaller hands)
Easy setup
Long battery life
Activity statistics (running, cycling, swimming, etc. ) in the Connect app
Acts with quality and strength
Water resistant (tested by several boaters)
When you have an activity on, it doesn't show the current time, which is a pretty important glitch in a watch: D (while there would be room)
The Start/Stop button is unstrategically placed near the wrist, so if you are cycling and holding the handlebars, you can accidentally stop the activity with your bent hand

So far, so good. My husband is thrilled.
Smaller dial. But value for money ok.
He doesn't have a pulse oximeter.

I bought the watch as one of the cheapest ways to get into the Garmin world. For the price I was disappointed by the processing of the watch. I have tried even more expensive versions and therefore Garmin in the quality of processing and software lags behind the competition. It seems to me that it's more about the persistence of the past years. Nevertheless, the watch does exactly what it is designed to do. They have accurate, if a little slower, GPS. They are suitable mainly for running, but they can also handle other sports. The only thing I personally miss is the "trail run" option, which is found in the higher models; and more accurate sleep monitoring (at least the beginning and end could be fixed somehow).
They look beautiful.
Alza sells a hardened case that fits almost perfectly and also a nylon bracelet.
They are light and do not show on the hand.
MIPs display looks great in the sun.
I support the Garmin couch.
Possibility to download additional functions via Connect IQ.
Terribly annoying "tips" how to use the watch. They should only appear for a short time after the clock is reset, but I get them twice a day.
The buttons rattle a bit and are inaccurate. One has to be careful not to squeeze them completely.
When navigating in the menu, the backlight flashes occasionally even though it is completely off in the settings.
Incredibly inaccurate for sleep monitoring. It's not just that they can't accurately record the individual phases (deep error completely), they can't even hit the beginning and end of the sleep. "Chinese" watches for a fraction of the price have known this for years (i.e. the beginning and the end. sleep phases are also inaccurate).
They don't have a "trail run".

I wouldn't recommend the watch. Since the first day we have been struggling with constant freezing of the display (for example, when someone calls) and the need to restart (which sometimes fails because the buttons do not respond) or hard reset and re-set the whole watch. This is sunbathing four times a day. The graphics are really scary and the watch is more suitable for smaller children who won't be too bothered. Sizes are more for a child's hand or a woman. Around and around, in this price level, other Garmin watches are doing better. I do not recommend and am considering a complaint.
small watch suitable for a child
at least basic functions
the graphics of the display is really tristic
constant freezing and the need to hard reset or restart, whichever works
they are expensive for what they "can" do
