Sudhanshu Sehgal (@sudhanshu1011) reportedMy POV regarding this. I started running in June of 2020 and ran with a Casio watch till November of 2024. Then planned to buy a watch and was confused b/w Coros & Garmin. I went for Coros Pace Pro and it was the latest watch from their side at that time because it got released a month before. Pace Pro hasn't still been launched in India and I had to get it from US. Battery of Pace Pro is quite good. First hand experience of this from my side- I ran a 24 Hour Stadium Run in March of 2025 where I covered 175 KM in a span of 24 hours. The battery of the watch at the start of the race was 98 or 99% battery. After 24 hours, 50% battery was still remaining which I can bet none of the entry level watches from Garmin could do. Another recent experience of one of my friends who is a Coros user. His Pace-3 button stooped working & it had been 18 months since the point of buy. He raised the ticket for this concern and it got exchanged and this happened in India where Coros even doesn't have a single offline outlet I guess & it's presence is quite limited. If it would have been Garmin, it wouldn't have been replaced because Garmin comes with 1-year limited manufacturer's warranty whereas Coros comes with 2-year limited warranty starting from the original activation date. This is a pretty big difference. This is not a biased post regarding Coros because I am a Coros user but this is just my perspective and still I stand that entry level Coros watches are way more good especially in the context of battery. Recently one of my friends bought Garmin 265 Music & he himself says that it's battery is not that good. If you want to buy Garmin, buy it. It is good but the point is what is your purpose behind buying either a Garmin or a Coros. Entry level Coros watches battery are way more longer than the entry level watches of Garmin. @COROSGlobal @Garmin @GarminFitness

Chris Manc (@ChrisManc9) reported@GarminFitness I'm shocked and annoyed that Garmin is trashing up the app that syncs with my venue 2s. I have to scroll down or x it out to see my data. Grrrr. It is getting old but I won't be replacing it with another Garmin device.

KDaltonD 🇺🇦 (@kdaltond) reportedSo, @garmin / @GarminFitness I'm told by Product Support that a ride launched thru downloaded Movies in Tacx desktop app doesn't count for a challenge that ride is a part of. Can that be right? That's a clear design flaw. Please fix.

Brahma N (@brahma_n) reported1/n This is my 15th year with @GarminFitness watches and they still can’t get software right. Their watches are twice the price of apple watches but their software can’t get basics right. @Garmin coach workouts don’t sync with the watch, an issue reported on Reddit and Garmin forums for years. There are hundreds of threads -

atlantaswelder (@atlantaswelder) reportedI really despise some commentary from some of these health metrics. @GarminFitness Nothing worse than someone/saying "i don't know if you're gunna make it" ... wtf Fu MF ;$:$4&:$;$/&7$:! F off 🤬 Just tell the me the data. That's all i require. I don't need your baseline

WhattheHUFF? (@Michael41381590) reported@GarminFitness Can you add rucking on the lower-end devices for us poor folks?
-
Tim Kettenring (@timkettenring) reported@Jefffeldman I’m not sure tbh but what I do know is that all the marketing around wearables and “recovery” products is largely based on making people feel good (or bad @GarminFitness) and making them think they need to “recover” from something nebulous - which has then led to this proliferation of “recovery” protocols 🙄

Uğur Karaman (@karamanugur1) reported@GarminFitness hello, my vivoactive 5 is having completely dark screen time to time for hours. I am disappointed that I am having this major problem. Battery is almost full. Any troubleshooting? Would you care to help as I am trying to reach you?

Deep General Research Institute (@DGR_Institute) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness I just bought and tested your new Garmin D2 Mach 2 Pro: I have used an Apple Watch Ultra One since release, as comparison: The build quality of your product is so hilariously bad that after one hour of testing, I decided to send it back and request a refund. China Trash. Display (really bad black and contrast) and case quality (moves and makes noises, no working lunette) is a 4/10, in relation to 1700€ price tag a 2/10. On top: Your OS is so bloated, slow and you force users to install 5! different apps and still charge 10€ per month for satellite coverage (@Apple it is for free). Compared to my almost 4 years old Apple watch your watch feels and looks like a kids toy. I will wait for the Apple Watch Ultra 4 instead.

Battiatus (@_battiatus) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness after almost two years my Fenix 5S Plus became faulty and luckily it was still under warranty and I got a replacement. Now we're two years later and it's broken again and I need to spend $180 for another replacement. What should I do ? (1/2)

Ken harrison (@Kenharrison99) reported@mikeoniron @GarminFitness garmin seems to be a problem, sleep without. Train better w! Apple Ultra and Polar H-10. My feel is more accurate than the garmin .

Pranav (@Pranav_) reportedhey @Garmin and @GarminFitness I'm unable to enroll my Fenix 7 solar in your beta program. Always errors out, software is stuck on 8.37, can you help?

Dale Johnson ✝️🇺🇸🦅⚜️ (@DaleJ_1031) reported@GarminFitness please fix the way Rucking is computed in Training Load. I did my hardest workout of the week and Connect barely registered it. I basically got penalized for the type of activity.

Will.Im.Not (@deanlooby2k10) reportedThe worst thing about @Apple Watch is when it’s pissing rain you can’t stop your run with the screen being so WET, I love @Strava I think @GarminFitness I’ll upgrade too!

John Straumann (@JohnStraumann) reported@GarminFitness Thanks for the reply, I tried all that multiple times. I bet there is an error in the firmware and/or software that controls the BLE connectivity.

Margaret-Ann, PhD Scholar (@RealMargaretAnn) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness listen, I need y’all to fix this Forerunner HR firmware ASAP because I know I’m fit af (IRONMAN!) but there’s no way my HR was between 31-76 for a 1.5hr Zone 2 training run… it’s been weeks, PLEASE SAVE US FROM THIS HELL! I’M NOT UNPRODUCTIVE! 😭 #garmin

AC (@TheStroBro) reported@GarminFitness Looking at Garmin Connect, there was probably some impact of adding strength training last week on my runs. But yesterday for recovery should help today. I added 52 minutes of stimulus on top of the previous 105 minutes of running, that's 49.5% of increase in some volume.
-
Dr. Kate (@KateERyan) reported@MarkMilliganDPT @GarminFitness I think the wrist heart rate sensor is just kind of buggy. I’m in the Fenix 6 now, but occasionally I go through periods of getting a lot of false abnormally high heart rate alerts, and either restarting or updating the software will resolve it.

Chris Martin (@CMartin9496) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness My Garmin 945 will not connect to my home wi fi. Is this a known error? It worked fine until today. I”ve installed and attempted to reinstall several times on my watch and the Garmin connevt app and it will not work
