Love the upgrade....but...

Seems like most things work well, but I have trouble keeping music connected during workouts. I also feel like the LTE feeture could be better. It doesnt seem to instantly switch to LTE when my phone is not around.

Had it a month. Short time to learn new configurations from my 7x. Clearer faces, better all around functionality, little tweaks make recorded workouts smoother

Garmin Fenix 8 Pro

I bought this a month ago to replace my Enduro 2. All the new features were just what I was looking for with integrated Satellite Coms and SOS feature. I was happy to be able to ditch the in reach but the battery life wasn’t there. I’m going to swap it out for the Fenix 8 Solar.

I received a Fenix Pro 8 51MM as an early Christmas present. From day I was unable to use the watch as a stand alone tracking device and leave my phone at home while running. After several searches and turning on and off settings wiping and restarting the watch etc I called Garmin for a fix which after an hour on the phone and a 2 data logs sent to Garmin I have a 1300 watch that does not perform as advertised. I have been waiting for 2 weeks to hear back from Garmin whether to replace the watch or not. So Garmin phone support was awesome they just couldn’t fix the problem
Very frustrating I will say the bio tracking this thing does is amazing but my problems are with the LTE and inReach not working

Awesome watch, incredible upgrade from Apple
on January 24, 2026
Posted by: Bdavis
I bought this watch for the limited Inreach capability, switching from an Apple Watch. Incredible customizable, premium feeling, and the features are built for an active person/adventure. As someone that doesn’t use a lot of the cutesie features from Apple, this was an upgrade by a wide margin. Also, getting to use it at night and during the day instead of picking one to charge daily was huge - 2 weeks out of the box and it’s still going strong (didn’t have a full charge, either).

Beast watch

I love the battery life! I never take it off, I've had the watch 14 days and have yet to charge it. The health features are pretty dope, although i hope they update the treadmill feature. If I dont swing my arm it doesnt count my steps. Other than that the watch is amazing

I still haven’t utilized all of the features but so far this was is the greatest I’ve ever owned, which it should be, for the price.
