  @JOEknowsPETE @GarminFitness If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. If it is, do. Applies to watches and fingers.

  @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.

  @Garmin @Garmin_India @GarminFitness I always believed Garmin stood for reliability and quality. Sadly, my experience has been the complete opposite. I purchased an Instinct 3 (50mm) in May 2025. Within 5 months, it had a battery defect and was replaced (Sep 2025). Seven months later, in May 2026, the replacement unit started malfunctioning with pace tracking. I spent nearly a week without my watch while it was at the service center. Then, just a month later in June, the same replacement device developed a heart rate sensor issue. I’ve now been informed that this unit will also be replaced. That means I’ll be on my third device in just 14 months. I requested a simple exception: allow me to switch to a different Garmin model, and I’m happy to pay the price difference. This request has been declined. Can someone explain why? As a customer, I’ve repeatedly faced training disruptions because of defective hardware. Every issue has been verified by your own service team. At what point does customer experience become important enough to justify an exception? I’m not asking for a free upgrade. I’m only asking for a chance to move away from a model that has repeatedly failed me, while paying the difference myself. I expected better from a brand known for building products athletes can depend on.

  @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.

  @GarminUK @GarminFitness hi, my altimeter on my forerunner 255s has stopped working altogether for the past week. I’ve followed your tips online and it’s made no difference. Looks like a lot of people have experienced the same issue. How can I sort please?

  Can you support me get my watch fixed @GarminFitness? I got a number for garmin Kenya. The 1st call was answered, the solution they gave didn’t work, they have since not answered calls or WhatsApp. My device keeps going off, battery shows 100%, I’ve rebooted, problem persists.
