Garmin Student Discounts

1. Garmin is well known for its huge (genuinely huge) range of smartwatches. The Garmin watch offerings include the fenix Series, Forerunner Series, Venu Series, Vivoactive Series, Instinct Series, Approach Series and Lily Series.

2. The fenix series is aimed at outdoor enthusiasts and athletes. They offer advanced GPS functionality, activity tracking, heart rate monitoring, and various sports profiles. Fenix smartwatches are designed to be more rugged with a long battery life, plus features like navigation, altimeter and barometer. Garmin Fenix watches start at about £560 and go beyond the £900 mark. Fenix are pricey, but they’re also Garmin’s flagship model range - showcasing the very best a smartwatch can get.

3. The Garmin Forerunner Series: The Forerunner series is focused on running and multisport activities. As you’d expect, this means quality tracking for metrics like distance, pace and heart rate. They often include built-in GPS and compatibility with external sensors. In this range, the cheapest model is the £129ish Forerunner 45/45S, aimed at those looking to start their first 5K – for example. The Forerunner series has a broad price range, though, with more feature-bound models catering prices up to £350.

4. Garmin describes its Venu Series as where style and design meet health and wellness. The Venu smartwatches combine fitness tracking with a more chic design than other models in Garmin’s range. These smartwatches offer monitoring like heart rate variability, respiration tracking and sleep analysis – plus apps for music and Garmin Pay.

5. The Garmin Vivoactive watches offer versatility over everything, designed to strike a good balance between features and affordability. With built-in GPS, heart rate monitoring, sleep tracking, stress monitoring and a variety of preloaded sports apps – the Vivoactive Series certainly feel like the jack-of-all-trades Garmin watch.

6. The Instinct series are Garmin’s watches that are built to be the robust option. Listen up, outdoor adventurers, this is for you. These smartwatches are known for their shock resistance, thermal resistance and water resistance. They still include features like GPS,, activity tracking and support for fun things like hiking, biking and swimming.

7. If you’re a golfer, the Garmin Approach smartwatches are tailored specifically to you. These smartwatches provide golf-related features like course maps, distance to hazards, shot tracking and scorekeeping. Of course, that’s all on top of general smartwatch functionality.

8. The Garmin Lily series is designed with a big focus on style, meaning these models are smaller with a slimmer profile. You get the standard health monitoring capabilities, as well as menstrual cycle tracking, stress monitoring and hydration reminders.

Garmin doesn't just sell smartwatches, the brand also sells a range of dash cameras – including the Garmin Mini 2, Garmin Tandem dash cam, 47, 57, 67W and the Garmin Dash Cam Live.
