Garmin fēnix® 8 – 51 mm, Solar,Sapphire, Premium Multisport GPS Smartwatch, Connect,Long-Lasting Battery Life, Dive-Rated,Built-in LED Flashlight,Carbon Gray DLC Titanium with Pebble Gray Band

The best smartwatch in almost every category. I use it mostly for tracking sleep, running, biking and golfing and so far it has blown me away. It is extremely accurate and with very heavy usage the battery lasts for weeks. Lots of different watch face options as well as bands available, I have on a titanium band. Insanely durable and just an all around amazing watch. I personally like the MIP display since it's always on and during the day I never need to use the light, the display is plenty bright enough. On the wrist it has a very premium look with the sapphire lens and titanium bezel. Size wise It's definitely on the bigger side of watches at 51mm but with that you also get the bigger battery. It's not too heavy tho, I think it feels just right. Very easy to learn how to use, either coming from an Apple watch or something else the software is very user friendly. It's pretty pricey at around $1,199 but I believe it is well worth the investment if you are someone who takes your health and well being seriously.

We purchased this watch for our son's 24th birthday. He is not into materialistic goods in life, but does appreciate great technology. He has only had $5-30 cheap and often knock-off watches in his entire life and I wanted to get him a watch that he would use to the fullest. The watch is amazing with useful features and features that are most certainly overkills. Extremely low battery consumption, solar charging, health/exercise monitoring (almost like a helicopter parent), flashlight, GPS, and tons of other features seem to have already won him over. The reliability, waterproof built, and over-the-air updates will also be great for extended use. We hope that he might be inspired to perspire a bit more in his life toward a fitter and healthier physique and lifestyle (we are a disgrace to any outdoor activity through generations). I have been told that the watch can be useful if he/his group gets lost while hiking in remote areas. It is an extremely expensive watch (we could have bought ~40-50 knock-off 'smart' watches for this price) and he is still a bit uncomfortable to wear it. Otherwise, it is an awesome piece of technology.

It's a Garmin, what else is there to say. Its capabilities are beyond expectations. I'm coming from an instinct 2x and epix gen 2. I got this initially for the battery life, which was amazing! There was nothing new my epic couldn't do, except for the flashlight, maps and microphone. I haven't used maps since I got my epix. And the flashlight is such a luxury but it's not worth the price in 'upgrading'. It's such a beautiful watch and you could feel the quality in weight. The band is comfortable, and the size took a bit to get adjusted. I was upgrading for the fitness capabilities, again nothing my watches couldn't do. So I think I'm gonna be returning it, and soley for the legibility in doors, I thought it would be more legible even with low light but I've found myself to have to move my arm a certain way to read it. I didnt want to have the brightness up due to the battery drainage. If it was my first garmin watch, it'd definitely be worth the price.

By far the best sports watch I've ever owned. I migrated from a FENIX 6 Saphire that served me for 4 years and I don't regret it. I continued with the MIP option because it's more discreet and uses less battery. I wear it every day for indoor activities and on weekends for outdoor activities. The solar charging works very well, but to really have an effect you have to leave it in the sun a lot. On a day-to-day basis it doesn't make any difference, but perhaps on a longer walk, where you can put it in the sun to charge, on top of your backpack, it might make a difference. The changes are subtle, but they are noticeable on a daily basis, the screen settings via the app, the touchscreen working very well, are easy to adapt to. A friend once told me that it's easy to adapt to better quality, and it's true. I see a lot of people talk about the price, but unfortunately there's no such thing as good, beautiful and cheap. It's not cheap, but it's very beautiful and not just good, it's excellent. It's well worth buying.

Great watch. So many functions. Battery life is absolutely amazing. Solar charging is a bonus but not really sure how much that really adds. Would have to be outdoors for a long time to really see for sure. All the options and apps available for any type of fitness tracking and other activities make this a great purchase. So many features available, I’m still figuring them all out. These are not cheap but well worth it if you’re in the market for a device like this.

Great watch but SLIGHTLY TOO BIG Im a big guy at 6'1 220lb athletic build and it felt big - so I absolutely loved the watch itself however, it felt like I was wearing a little blocky computer on my wrist - i ended up returning and going for the 47millimeter solar, which is an absolutely perfect size & fit. I didn't think that a few millimeters would make that big of a difference, but honestly, it does. Coming from an Instinct 2X Tactical Solar i already knew I wanted MIP display instead of OLED due to better battery life as well as simple personal preference. This has every bell and whistle I could ever want, i actually avoid using it like a true smartwatch ie. Turn off phone notifications etc and utilize it for weight lifting, weather updates for work, then of course gps and maps for hunting, atvs and hiking etc.... Great watch

Garmin does not disappoint. I truly believe this is the best smart watch in the market for an active person. I do not notice it on my wrist. Amazing battery life. Excellent futures.

C’est littéralement la meilleure montre au monde, on ne peut pas rivaliser avec Garmin

Excelente producto si te gusta cualquier deporte al aire libre, lo compré porque jubilé mi Fénix 3 HR. Sin duda es un súper reloj para los amantes de los datos físicos, salud y el deporte.

No meaningful change compared to the fenix 7 pro. Voice commands are virtually useless and on the things it does work on (such as setting a timer) you'd be faster at it. And since it's not voice activated, you still have to have a free hand to use the thing. Everything that makes this watch good (cause it's a really good watch) are things that can be found on the fenix 7 pro for 800$ less. Flashlight, health tracking, GPS, touch screen, display. Go for the fenix 7 pro and save some money on an actually finished product not riddled with bugs.

Excelente todo, vendedor serio
