  • This is my full review of the Garmin Enduro 2 after using it for 6 months. It's the third Garmin watch I used in the past year and this is the one I've decided to keep and use. It's a great device in many ways and in the video I go through my use cases, reasons for upgrading, the pros and cons and my conclusions.

    Thanks for confirming my thoughts on the display compared to a base Fenix. Great video :)

    Thank you for the detailed review of the Garmin Enduro 2. I'm considering it for my specific needs and would greatly appreciate your insights on the following aspects:
    Continuous Repeating Timers Throughout the Day:
    Does the Enduro 2 support setting a sequence of timers that repeat continuously (very important for me) throughout the day? Specifically, I need:
    A 30-minute relaxation period
    Followed by a 5-minute deep meditation session
    Then another 5-minute deep meditation session
    With audible beeps or vibrations to indicate transitions between each phase
    -------
    Heart Rate Monitoring:
    Can the watch continuously record heart rate during these periods?
    -------
    Battery Life:
    How would the frequent use of these continuous, repeating timers affect the battery life?
    -------
    Lunar Calendar Notifications:
    Does the Enduro 2 provide notifications for no moon days? This is important for my specific meditation routines.
    Your detailed feedback on these points would be extremely helpful and much appreciated!

    A good review. I've been using an Instinct 2x solar tactical for a while now and it has served me very well. The battery is amazing and it's a very rugged and capable watch. That said, I am thinking of upgrading to a color screen and more features, yet not compromising on the great battery life. The Enduro 2 is really my obvious option. U have definitely considered the Fenix and Epix, but the Enduro pushes it that bit further. Epix has a nice screen of course, but no solar and no always on display unless you want a real battery drainer. There are so many watches in Garmins lineup, that it's actually hard to choose. The Forerunner 955 is an excellent watch too, but I always like the big chunky divers/adventure watches. I do openwater swimming and did consider the Swim 2, but I cycle, climb and run a bit too. In the end I think it comes down to the watch style and battery, since so many Garmin watches have everything on them anyway. On the Instinct 2 I love the flashlight, so any watch I choose, must have that feature.

    Great review. The Sapphire screen is only a problem if you view next to Gorilla Glass such as a Forerunner 255.😢❤

    So. Does this watch have a speedometer So as you are walking or running or even riding your bicycle it will show you your current speed?

    Its very large - any issues with that? What about getting git by the massive titanium watch at night when sleeping with it on? How would you compare it to the VENU 2 PLUS?! For sports? And wht about using the MAPS foe biking, hiking and running in nature areas?

    • @w2best
      @w2best  11 месяцев назад +1

      I have never been hit by it, but I usually don't hit myself when I sleep. It took a few days getting used to it but then abs no problem. It's a big watch, but the features kind of make up for it. Venu 2 looks great with the leather band! But the lack of maps and way less battery life makes it less competent imo. The nit's much cheaper. I use the maps for pretty much all outdoor activities. It's one of the main pros of the watch I think :)

    Great review! After a few years with a basic Instinct (1), I'm considering this large/heavy 51mm E2 since it is on sale for the same price as a 47mm Fenix 7 Sapphire Solar, but then again the 1.4" amoled Foreigner 965 costs much less, and it will still be 100 times better than my exstinct!

    • @w2best

      It is probably because of sensor settings. Ie Pulse Ox consumes A TON of battery.

    I think the Epix Pro Sapphire is better because of the AMOLED, but maybe the Enduro 2 will last a long time with the durable low light MIP display.

    • @w2best
      @w2best  7 месяцев назад

      Yes that display is nice, but I'm probably not upgrading as this device is great for me :)

      AMOLED will have burnout pixels.
      on top of that it drains battery faster.
      so I choose enduro.
