Web ID: 19879629Still 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.

Overall 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!

Workout buddy!
Bought watch to tackle and get better at running. Great features, happy I pulled the trigger. Does things my Apple Watch can not.

Good watch, but feel outdated.
The watch is good overall but feels old, like it is not from recent years. It is laggy and slow; the buttons are super hard and stick a bit. Good autonomy.

Basics Fail
The one and only thing every single smart watch must get right - heart rate monitor. This thing is awful, even after wearing it the way they demand to get an accurate heart rate. It reads really high before I even work out. Then really low when I’m panting. Unacceptable.

Fantastic Display and Features
I haven't had time to explore all the features and widgets since there are so many, but the Amoled scree and the touch screen are a huge improvement from my last Fenix. The watch is great and I would highly recommend it.

Nice watch
Lots of features but coming from and Apple watch I’m still trying to figure it out. I wish it had a CrossFit and other option for activities. Don’t think there’s one for stationary bike either l, but like I said I’m still trying to figure it out. Wish it would auto detect sleep also.

Apple update helped!
Microphone on watch did not communicate with my iPhone 17 - that is until the most recent update by apple. Now it works great. Loving my fenix more as I get more familiar with the logic to navigate functions
