Of the many Garmin launches this year, I thought the brand would spare me from having to review the child-specific Bounce 2 – I was wrong. We requested one for the T3 Magazine Christmas photoshoot, and Garmin asked, since the watch was already with us, whether I could consider testing it with my son.
I can’t say no to Garmin, so once the photoshoot was done, I handed the Bounce 2 over to my 12-year-old for testing. A few weeks later, I can confirm that in 2025, the watch feels better suited to much younger kids, due to its limitations in health and fitness tracking.
