What is the best Garmin watch?
The Garmin watch collection is one of the most diverse and extensive in the field of smart watches. Therefore, it’s difficult to award just one the title of the best. Rather, the answer will depend on the reason you’re buying a watch and the function you want it to fulfil.
For runners, the Forerunner collection includes some of the best options, whereas the Approach series is better suited for golfers and the D2 for aviation, with features to navigate the sky.
The vívo collection features some of the brand’s best all-rounders, including pre-loaded features and apps for various sports and performance and fitness tracking, as well as music connectivity and a contactless payment solution.
How long does it take to charge a Garmin watch?
The time it takes to charge a Garmin watch varies depending on the model you have. Fully charging a watch can take anywhere between one to four hours. For example, vívo models typically take between 60 - 90 minutes whereas Forerunners can take up to two hours.
Models hold charge for different lengths of time, too. Some fēnix and MARQ models can last up to 14 days when in regular use. Watches also come with a battery saver mode, in which they can last up to 48 days in some cases.
It’s recommended to check the user manual of your particular model for more accurate information on battery charge times and life.
How does a Garmin watch work?
Garmin watches have GPS integration, which via signals sent between satellites and the wearable device, can give you real-time data and accuracy of location, distance and speed travelled.
The fitness monitoring element of these watches works through sensors located in the watch. Typically, you can see these lit up on the case back, and when these are pressed against the skin on your wrist, they are able to track things such as heart rate.
