Great watch but a major glitch
on November 21, 2025
Posted by: El Jimbo
I have been using my Fenix Pro Microled for several weeks now. I love the display and the data rich features. The battery life is 9 days. Much less than the normal Fenix 8, but I expected that when I bought it. The battery life saving automatic features are a bit frustrating - features start shutting down without warning, and it is not that intuitive to change them. Perhaps the most frustrating experience is that the watch intercepts my phone calls but when I try to answer the caller cannot hear my voice. This is apparently a known issue for users with an iphone. Seems like this should be a priority fix for Garmin, but nothing yet.

Went from MARQ Gen 2 to Fenix 8 Pro Microled
on November 21, 2025
Posted by: JackedGuy77
My MARQ Adventurer Gen 2 was getting long in the tooth (screen burn in!) so decided to go back to the Fenix line for a few reasons. First, I wanted MicroLED and there was no refresh of MARQ in sight (oh well, Garmin?!) Second, I wanted back into a larger 51mm platform. I’ve had the new watch now for about a month and I love it. Despite all of the groaning I heard about battery life, mine is great with a charge once every week or two. In other words, no issues, but then again I don’t leave the display on all the time, use sleep modes, etc. If you use the watch smartly, battery won’t be an issue. I’ve not signed up for all of the connectivity features because frankly I don’t need them. I always have an iPhone, and never go that far off the grid. All in all, love the watch, especially the display quality and brightness! And for tracking my training and giving me all the data I want, Garmin is still unmatched.

Handsome Watch With Great Features
on November 5, 2025
Posted by: Mooningthesin
Looks great on my wrist. Watch has me working out more than ever and tracks my workouts. Very bright MICROLED display and flashlight. Only downside so far is doesn’t track my sleep as well as my Apple Ultra. So, I just wear my Ultra when sleeping till they fix the issue. But for the most part, I love love love this watch.

Great Watch-Great Screen- Great Features
on October 22, 2025
Posted by: rickrunsmarathons
I have been a Garmin user for years and I'm an early adopter for new tech so I was excited to try the new MICROLED Screen. It's just plain beautiful. I already raced a full marathon with it, using all the functions and music features, and the battery was just fine. A 10-day battery life is more than plenty for me and as long as the watch lasts an entire event, that's what I need and count on. So far I am completely happy with this purchase!

Awesome piece of equipment.
on October 10, 2025
Posted by: CKR1976
I call it a piece of equipment because it feels like you have entire group of people looking after you. I have to admit I went all out on this one and went for the top of the line. I really do get happy every time I look at it. Overall Garmin knocked it out of the park on this beast.
