#1 selling point for me is the MAPS! No need for cellular. It’s all built in. No service, no problem. I can navigate in the backcountry and download any route/trails.

Shout out from Southeast, Michigan. I am a teacher as well. I have been back and forth on both of these watches forever usually going towards for the Epix 2 Pro. I picked it up for $500 used on ebay about a year ago. The Ultra I am pretty sure i am going to sell at this point. Garmin just hits that sweet spot on giving me the data i care about.

This guy is so Michigan. The clothes. The accent. Dude looks like every dude in my town. Props from Traverse City, man!

Haha I love it! Glad to see the locals liking the content 👍

Garmin > AWU

I got both and I'm the same. I love the AWU but the epix pro is definitely better by a long shot. The software updates made the GPS amazingly accurate compared to the AWU.

🙌 nice to see a fellow double watch wearer I rock my enduro 2 left hand right hand AWU 2 😎the only difference I rock LTE on my Apple watches Great video 👏🙌👍

I’m sold

I’d like to see how the maps work on the Epix. I think you need a third party app with the Ultra.

I bought the Garmin forerunner 965 for the battery life and teal sport and health tracking.

I was thinking about this one for the longest time. I just like the golf feature on it that was a big selling point for me. How do you like it?

@@MichiganDad the epix pro gen 2 51mm was my first choice, but the price stop me 🤣

I’ve had an ultra and an Epix. Get an Epix. I switched to the Ultra and the battery is really annoying. Also, the run splits on the Ultra are constantly off.

be carefful , sappfire is not bumpproof , its scratch resistant , and on new garmins its not anymore the same quallity sappfire as on older garmin models like fenix5 or 6

I have the FR955 and I have never had any issues with the gorilla glass. I am thinking about upgrading the Epix Gen 2 Pro, but I may get the standard edition with the gorilla glass instead of the sapphire.

@@rastaph not worth spend 100€$£ extra for sapphire , quallity of sapphire on latest models is not anymore as it was on fenix 5,6 ( old models ) lot of people on FB group scratched it because they bought saphire and thought dont need screen protector and it happenes anyway . And also standard ep pro is more black and nicer .

@@davidvitez9357 I don’t have a screen protector on my 955 and I have no scratches. I also do CrossFit so it gets banged around a lot. No issues with the gorilla glass.
