Holy Cow the features!!
I just upgraded to the Garmin fēnix® 8, and let’s be honest: I am now wearing a supercomputer on my wrist that is roughly 400% smarter than I am. The Good News: The AMOLED screen is so crisp I can see my stress levels rising in 4K during the Saturday morning rush. I used the built-in flashlight last night and accidentally guided a commercial flight into Grand Rapids. The Reality: This watch is built for people who climb Everest and skydive into volcanoes. Meanwhile, it just sent me a notification that my "Expedition to the Service Department" was a personal best. I will likely use 4 of the 1.2 million features it offers, but if you need someone to track their sleep quality while simultaneously navigating via satellite through a blizzard... I’m your guy. Now, if I can just figure out how to tell what time it is, I’ll be all set.

Great but charging is weird
I receive the Fenix 8 amoled, I love it but when I charge it’s says charging but then doesn’t but it still seems to charge but it doesn’t have the charging symbol.

Fenix 8 defective out of the box
Out of the box the down button didn’t work. Made sure to do all the software updates and a few restarts. Then found that this is a pretty common problem and to add a calibration file. Did that and still no luck fixing the button. Watches this expensive should not have this many defects.

Great addition to my health tracking!
I've been looking for a new smartwatch for quite some time and finally pulled the trigger in late 2025. I've thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of the health, activity, sleep tracking and very much looking forward to getting out on the golf course to test the golf features of the Fenix 8.

Not bad, but needs tweaks
I’ve had some variation of the Fenix 8 for about 2 years now (keep swapping between solar and AMOLED). While it’s a great fitness tracker and the UI update is nice the responsiveness of the AMOLED model is lacking. Feels like I’m waiting for it load or finish thinking before it does something. What it does well: -compass waypoint tracker -health tracking -flashlight -easy access to a lot of different features through shortcuts What needs improvement: -UI sluggish -saving activity is slow

Still figuring it out...
Very bright screen makes reading it anywhere very easy. Some differences with the Fenix 7 I like, some I don't. The phone sound and mic are very good - good enough to rely on. Trying to download topographic maps however, seems to take many hours - after 6 hours, I'm still only 40% there. Had a mysterious freeze of the screen already, but a soft reboot seems to have solved the problem. Can't get my fenix 7 watch face back! So, a work in progress.

This review is from Garmin fenix 8 47mm, AMOLED, Outdoor & Fitness GPS Smartwatch, Saphire, Bare Graphite Titanium, Spark Orange/Graphite Band, NAOverall great watch
I prefer MIP with solar better than amold since I run outside a lot and the display and battery life is worse than Fenix 7 pro I had before so please bring back MIP solar display in the next generation. Thanks!
