Nice Watch Can Be Better
on June 6, 2026
Posted by: Phil-Wolv
I purchased the watch a couple of months ago and I’ve been very happy with it thus far. I would have given 5 stars if they provided more face option at no cost (especially at the price you pay for the watch). I would also like to see them add the blood pressure (BP) feature to the watch watch, which certainly would a differentiator (I would give a 5 star with this feature added regardless of face options).

The best Garmin, the 43mm needs a better strap
on June 4, 2026
Posted by: Anonymous
I love my Fenix 8 43mm titanium sapphire, the new features really make a difference in my training, the materials feel great and the AMOLED screen is amazing.
The only drawback I notice is the size of the strap, it is really small and barely fits my wrist, I understand why this is marketed as the main option for women but it is considerably bigger than an automatic diver or GMT men’s watch and a better fitting strap should be offered, search the internet, there are many videos showing a hack to use a 22mm strap on Garmin 20mm watches, a knife should not be required to have a proper fitting strap.

Works amazingly well. Fit is spot on for smaller wrists.
Nice upgrade from Epix.

Difficult to use
on May 7, 2026
Posted by: Garminskeptic
This wasn’t my first garmin but I’m finding it so hard to use. I had practiced starting to record on a saved trail for my big race and then thought I started and hit play and somehow failed to record my race. I had to go by my heart rate because I had no idea what distance I had gone.

Best Garmin watch!

I have had this watch for about 3 weeks now and I absolutely love it! I have had the Venu 3S, Venu 4, and the Forerunner 965 and this watch is by far the best one that I have had. It looks great on my wrist and it has all the features of all the watches I had combined into 1.
