Best watch ever
on September 7, 2026
Posted by: Blashonda
I switched from Apple Watch Ultra 2 and that’s the best decision I could have made. I love all the metrics, which has made me make some lifestyle changes. Most of all I love the battery life. I wear this watch 24/7, absolutely love it. Never going back!

So happy with it. It’s a large upgrade from the 7 and I think way worth it.

Love it for all of what it can do but I only use less than half of the features. I can remember all how to get what readings except the basics that I need.

Super watch

Bought 47mm MIP solar last year but it was too big and uncomfortable to sleep with. I have 165mm wrist circumference. Sold it and got the 43mm instead. The AMOLED looks good. Very comfortable and size is perfect. Coming from fenix 6s pro, 8th version is a super upgrade. Sleep with this watch is comfortable so i dont need the Cirqa.

Love'n It!

Absolutely love it. Love its classy look - I can wear it to work, the gym and church and it always looks good. I also absolutely love its accuracy and functionality. It is spot on across the board from sleep reporting to excise tracking. It has more features than I will ever use, but they are easy to bump to the bottom, and the features are more frequently used to the top for quick and easy access. Once you get the hang of it, it's easy to use. Took a minute for me to master, but I have in fact mastered it.
If you're considering one, just buy it. You won't regret it.

Excellent fitness tool!

I’ve been running with garmin smartwatches since 2009 for fun and marathon training. The Fenix 8 is by far my favourite and a major upgrade to my Forerunner from 2017. The clarity of the screen, customization of data, ease of scrolling/navigating while working out is pretty much perfect! I’ve been following the recommendations for workouts and sleep suggestions to gradually get back in shape and feel better overall. Definitely recommend for running, cycling, walking, yoga, weight training—there’s a lot more I have left to tap into! No issues with phone or app connectivity. Love this watch—matte gold tone is a plus.

I have had the watch for about a month and I love it. It is easy to operate and the features are great. I still am not using all of the features, but it has so much potential!
