solar charging
on October 10, 2024
Posted by: thomask
I like enduro 3 more than any other watch/fenix 7x pro/fenix 8 solar, but I really doubt the solar charging capability.

Love the Enduro
on October 9, 2024
Posted by: MikeCruns29
I absolutely love the Enduro 3. Excellent battery life, and very light given its size. I previously had a 47mm Fenix and was a little unsure about how I’d feel about the increased size of a 51mm but with the new case being so light I honestly feel like I don’t even notice the watch. The GPS is great, as always, and connect within seconds every time. Can’t say enough good things, and excited to take this on some multi-day journeys in the upcoming months!

Amazing watch
on October 8, 2024
Posted by: Ultrrnnr
It’s an amazing watch. The battery life is incredible. The only issue for me is the watch is a bit too big and it bruises or cuts my wrist when I run with it more than two hours. I adjusted the band but it’s still uncomfortable.

Finally a kayak tracker in watch
on October 5, 2024
Posted by: Fepes80
The bought the Enduro for a couple reasons, the main two are: 1st, it finally has a kayak setting in the activities, I have been using other trackers and then having to make adjustments. 2nd: the battery+solar, OMG I have not needed to charge my watch since the initial charge due to it charging while I am out and about. Now it does have other great features and the watch face is BIG and easy to read l.

Perfect for MIP Lovers
on October 3, 2024
Posted by: Ben44
I was trying to decide between the Enduro 3 and the Fenix 8 solar. I am confident that the Enduro 3 is the best watch for MIP fans. Battery lasts forever, the case is light, and the band is super comfortable. Another great product from Garmin.

This Is An Exceptional Watch
on October 3, 2024
Posted by: ScottRW
I purposely waited for this watch to be released and hoped it would arrive before my upcoming ultramarathon and it was a smart decision on my part. Overall, this watch absolutely exceeds my expectations.
Pros:
- Battery life is exceptional whether in smartwatch mode or when using GPS.
- Lightweight and comfortable (even when sleeping).
- Watch band is super comfortable and holds the watch securely.
- Provides a ton of data in both smartwatch mode and GPS mode.
- # of data screens for all activities are basically unlimited with so many fields to choose from with a variety of pre-defined formats to display the data.
- So many features that can quickly be accessed while on the move (alarm, timer, stopwatch, altimeter, barometer, compass, weather, etc.).
- The flashlight (multiple level white light with optional red light) is absolutely a game changer. You have no idea how much you need this feature until you have it. I use it everyday/night. Oh, and it has a strobe light feature, but I have not used that yet.
- The buttons have a good, firm feel to them and don't seem to get accidently pressed when putting on or taking off a backpack or running vest.
- User interface is pretty easy to navigate after an initial learning curve.
- Maps/Navigation feature is absolutely fantastic. My wife and I just spent a week in the Rocky Mtn. National Park and several times I had to reference this feature to ensure we were on track and it works extremely well. I hope to dive into more of the navigation features so I can really leverage all it has to offer.
Cons: (And, I hope Garmin takes note of these and makes some adjustments)
- The speaker is not very loud and the vibration not very intense, so it's easy to miss prompts during workouts, races, and even normal runs. As someone with partial hearing loss, this is extremely frustrating. I have not found any way to adjust these levels so far, but having this ability would be very helpful.
- The notification feature is driving me a bit crazy. I turned off notifications for things like "breaking news" or other prompts my phone would normally provide me. I still want to receive text prompts, but so far, I get everything on my watch and haven't figured out how to only get what I want.
- Some of the data displayed on the main screen is extremely small, which in my case requires reading glasses to see with my old eyes. This is also the case on other screens where there is definitely enough screen space to use a larger font size.

This is truly a great watch, yes it has a couple quirks, but overall, I consider this a smart purchase, a great value, and I HIGHLY recommend it!
