Variously compatible with active sports while having an urban design

The purpose of wearing a wearable device varies from person to person. Some may want to use it as a lifelog tool for health care, others may want to see the fitness benefits visually, and others may want features specific to a particular sport. [Image] View Garmin's smart watch "epix" (5) Garmin has a wide range of models to meet diversifying needs, but the "epix" that appeared this time is compatible with more than 30 types of sports. The first big point is the point. In addition, it has various functions that are indispensable for urban life, such as a cool design that is easy to use everyday and mil-spec level toughness. It is a "premium active smart watch" that can be used in a wide range of situations, from offices to the outdoors and active sports scenes.

● Garmin's proud GPS technology covers 42,000 golf courses in Japan and overseas. First, let's take a closer look at sports functions. It supports familiar activities such as running, biking, and machine training, but what you should pay attention to is the function that utilizes GPS, which is the true value of Garmin. For example, in the case of golf, 42,000 golf courses around the world are displayed in full color, and various functions that can maximize the performance during play are installed. The brightly colored high-definition AMOLED display has good visibility in direct sunlight. For skiing, you can access maps and information on more than 2,200 ski resorts around the world. In addition to checking the difficulty level for each slope, you can also record your maximum straight speed and total running distance. For surfing, you can record the number and time of catching waves, speed and route, and with the newly installed kitesurfing mode, you can also record the height of the jump. Of course, if you check your heart rate and blood oxygen concentration in real time, you can visually check the load during exercise, and daily monitoring of sleep and stress level will help you maintain and improve your wellness. You can make use of it. In addition, I would like to pay attention to the longevity of the battery. Due to the characteristics of wearing a smartwatch on a daily basis, it is difficult to use it if it needs to be charged frequently. However, with this "epix", it is possible to operate for about 16 days in smartwatch mode and about 21 days in battery saving mode from a fully charged state. It can operate continuously for up to 42 hours even with GPS turned on. It seems to be very reliable in sports that drive you for a long time under harsh conditions, such as ultramarathons and mountain runs. Considering that it is worn on a daily basis, its sophisticated design and toughness are also great attractions. While there are many vivid colors such as neon colors in wearables for sports, this "epix" is just smart. The slightly oversized 47mm case is equipped with a metallic textured stainless steel or a hard DLC titanium bezel, which improves scratch resistance and creates a sharp impression. The excellent heat resistance, impact resistance, and water resistance compliant with MIL-STD-810G, which can be used in tough environments without feeling anxiety, are also reliable. In addition, it is equipped with a music function that can save up to 2000 songs on the watch itself, and the payment function is compatible with Garmin Pay and Suica, and it also covers all the functions that are indispensable for living in the city. It seems to be a suitable model for users who want to fully enjoy both daily life in the city and active sports scenes. ● Product specifications ☆ GARMIN epix Steel / Graphite ・ Price: 121,000 yen (tax included) ・ Bezel: Stainless steel Silver band: Silicon graphite lens: Corning Gorilla Glass DX ・ Weight: 76g ☆ GARMIN epix Sapphire Carbon Gray DLC Ti / Black ・ Price: 132,000 yen (tax included) ・ Bezel: DLC titanium carbon gray band: Silicon black lens: Sapphire Crystal ・ Weight: 70g ☆ 2 models common specifications ・ Size: 47 × 47 × 14.5mm ・ Display : 1.3 inch, 416 x 416 pixels, AMOLED display ・ Band size: 22mm ・ Case: FRP ・ Waterproof performance: 10ATM (100m waterproof) ・ Connection function: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, ANT +
