Key Features

1.4-inch AMOLED Display with Sapphire Protection

It delivers crisp maps, sharp workout stats, and readable notifications in bright sunlight, while the lightweight 52 g titanium-bezel case maintains all-day comfort.

Elevate Gen 5 Sensor with FDA-Cleared ECG

Garmin’s latest optical heart rate sensor adds on-demand ECG for detecting potential AFib (where supported), nap detection, improved sleep coaching, and highly accurate 24/7 HRV tracking. New running-specific metrics like Running Economy, Step Speed Loss, Running Tolerance, and Impact Load Factor give deeper insight into form and fatigue.

Advanced Training & Recovery Intelligence

Race Predictor and adaptive Garmin Coach plans now factor in running economy for more accurate finish-time forecasts.
