Become More Health Conscious!

I’ve been talking about getting an Apple Watch for 3 years but couldn’t come to spending the money. A few mints ago I decided I need to get back in shape, so I started researching smart watches. The more I searched, the more I realized I didn’t want a watch that was so “smart” but was able to track and provide health info and goals. I ended up biting the bullet and getting the Fenix 8 47mm Amoled. Besides being a great looking watch, it has pushed me to become way more conscious of my health. I am now walking daily, mountain biking more, and overall feeling better about myself. There are way more features on the Fenix 8 than I’ll ever use, but man am I glad I bought this watch. I didn’t want to charge daily, I didn’t want games on it either. I wanted a watch that would track health and allow me to disconnect from the everyday grind. And this watch does all of that. Looking forward to the adventures this watch will push me to see!

Screen Animations / Software Bug

I bought this a month ago and I’m fairly happy I did. I’m migrating over from an Apple Ultra2 thinking this had more features I wanted. While it does, I’m on my second replacement or third watch due to the fact that the screen animation like getting the blue Garmin triangle when powering on, does not work. It was determined after I received my third watch that this was a software issue and there is no fix for it at this time. If they fix that, I’ll be delighted. If not, I’m contemplating going back to my Apple Watch.

Does It All

I replaced my Fenix 5+ with the Fenix 8 and love it. Does everything my old watch did but a little better. I like the touch screen and the sleep mode. Easier to navigate and customize. It’s still way more watch than I need (really just use running, heart rate, music and golf) but some of the newer updates like sleep tracking, morning and evening reports, and improved GPS are growing on me. Well worth the investment and my last one made it 7+ years.

Awesome Watch!

Needed the watch quickly as my other one broke. Got this Fenix 8 in two days! Love the new watch! They style really appeals to me plus there are so many options to customize it. So many features on the watch I still have not found them all. Perfect for my triathlon training and looks awesome when not training. Love the watch!

Exceptional Watch

Great watch and so much more. Love the golf features

Great Watch!!

Bought my Fenix 8 last month and absolutely love it. Preparing for my first Hyrox event and my Garmins information has been clutch from sleep, to heart rate, performance tracking and analysis. Very helpful. Love the look and functionality.

Careful With Airpod Connections.

Everything worked as advertised except playing music via Bluetooth. Frequent disconnects with AirPods made listening while running not possible. Returned the watch as this is a deal breaker for me.

Great, But Not Perfect

I love the watch, but it requires a steep learning curve. It’s not easy or intuitive like an Apple Watch, but you’re not buying an AW. You choose Garmin on purpose. I love how everything is together, the battery life and the flash light. I also love the golf tracking capabilities, along with the usual activities. I just wish the map function was as easy to use as an Apple Watch and I wish the calendar synched better with Microsoft Outlook. Hopefully, Garmin will change this in the future.

Love This Watch!

love this watch - it offers many useable features - wish the Garmin watch bands were not so expensive and the Iron Grit watch face, included with the watch, should be included in Connect IQ for easier programming

Great Warch

Love it! Superior to the Forerunner 970. Battery life and metrics are solid. Built in strobe light is epic for early morning runs. Quite accurate on distance tracking while indoor lap swimming

It Does Everything! And Just The Fact That We Bond

Very impressed. It has so many more features than I even read about. It's a great health monitor as well golf, etc

Greatness In A Watch

I love my Fenix 8-47mm watch. I love what it can do. This watch works for me. It is loaded with useful tools tailored to my activities. I can go on and on. Simply the best.😎

Upgrade And Well Worth It

Upgraded from Epix Gen 2 a few months ago. There is not one thing I don't like about the fenix 8 all the way down to the flashlight. Great job with all Garmin products.

Solar 47mm

Outstanding, I definitely prefer mips for the always on display, and solar for the insane battery life. Does everything I need in an outdoor fitness watch , just missing a microphone on the keyboard for voice to text response on Android. I ended up keeping the 51mm solar fire the bigger screen I like the premium look of titanium over black

Great Upgrade To Epix2

Had a epix2 and am really liking this better. It is a great upgrade
