I Like This Watch

I've had it a month, swithing from an Apple Watch. I was worried because I am in the mac ecosystem with an iPhone, iPad, and Mac. But it integrates smoothly, no hassle at all. Very accurate fitness tracker (treadmill, hiking, rower). AND- It intergrates with my Garmin Chart plotter and Force Current kayak motor, so I can control my fishing kayak with my watch..... I like the watch a lot, looks good, a long time between charges. Very happy with my purchase.

So Clean And Leaves No Stone Unturned

As a 6 foot four male I love this watch. It doesn’t feel too big for me. The features are super clean. I don’t feel like over informed. I actually like a lot of the information that it gives to me. I like the way that I’m able to customize it it does not feel too heavy on my wrist or big. I used the flashlight feature more than I thought I would especially the red one at night. I don’t like receiving texts on my watch so it was nice to be able to turn that off. I do like the Wallet feature. I like not having to go to my phone to get a very beautiful graph on where I am in my running and training so overall really great watch very happy to have made this purchase. This review was left with voice recorder.

Worth The Money

I’ve been using a Fenix watch for many years. At age 76 I questioned whether it was worth upgrading from my Fenix 5. After daily use for the past month I’ve found the additional features were well worth the money.

Looks Good But It’s Glitchy

Got it on 1/14/2026 opened it up put on charger. All excited about this watch. Came home did what it said downloaded the app scanned the watch. Took forever to pair. Tried to set up the ecg app said not enough information. Said my heart rate was like 175. Put it on and noticed it was always on the sun set/sun rise screen. Went to the gym looked at it and it was constantly going through different screens. So I have had it less than 12 hours and I am ready to send it back hopefully when I call garmin this morning they will help me with a fix. A lot of money for something that doesn’t work

Love It!!

Love my new Fenix 8. Just upgraded from the 6. The screen is so easy to read. I love the touch screen - it's just as sensitive as my iPhone screen. I thought the flash light was going to be gimmicky - but it actually works great reading menus in dark restaurants and finding my way in the dark. Battery life is crazy. I am on day 18 of the first charge and still says I have 31% remaining. I used to get 6-7 days out of my old 6.
