Terrible heart rate it has never worked.

 

I would not recommend

gps is fun to have and I enjoy seeing the map displayed and logging each of my workouts. The switch from arm to bike quick release is pretty awesome. The wireless update to computer makes this a breeze to download updates and track all workouts

systems don't actually work. how can you trust it for $500 it should work perfectly. The heart rate is the part I train with the most and it is completely unusable. Guess I'll buy a watch for each arm one timex/polar and then the Garmin

Very Impressive System

 

As an endurance athlete, I have used many systems over the years; HRM; GPS; etc. I am very impressed with how this enables you to do everything and so very easily. It's totally integrated. You can upload workouts to record, analyze, & map your routes....

450 unreliable, piece of junk!!!

 

I am beyond disappointed and fed up with this product. I've had the 910XT for 2 months now and have had nothing but problems with it. For the 1st two weeks, it would not upload data at all. With a software update this finally started working, but then...

Problematic and Terrible Customer Support

 

This Garmin has amazing features -- but it is also has technical issues and customer support is TERRIBLE. I love that it reported my swim mileage and tracked my bike and run miles -- WHILE IT WAS WORKING. I have had ongoing issues with the ability to...

All the data you ever needed (and never knew)

 

I hold Garmin Forerunner GPSs responsible for my sticking with my exercise program. Having the benefit of actual feedback and hard data has proven to be invaluable. The 910XT adds to this, centralizing and simplifying the process. All that I need is...

Garmin Finally Got It Right

 

I have owned several Garmin GPS watches. The 405 was a complete miss. The 910xt finally gets it right. Great accuracy (except altitude, but that is a flaw of all GPS devices). Battery life is fantastic. Very easy to use. Easy to read while running. I...

Garmin 910 great buy, so far.

 

I have enjoyed the new 910, especially over the 405. The display is easily readable and the buttons are positioned for ease of use.

Almost perfect

 

Bottom line: great gps watch for running / biking / swimming. I bought this watch because I am getting into triathlons and for that purpose, it is top notch. Based on my cell phone, existing bike computer, and my experience on known routes it appears...

Would you spend $449 knowing there are issues?

 

Ok, I wanted to LOVE this watch. I really did. I'm not only a runner, but a triathlete as well. I wanted an attractive (forget the Grey/Orange of the FR310XT), slimmer fit, GPS watch that not only could be worn while swimming (either open water or...
