Fenix 7 is the ultimate standard
on December 13, 2023
Posted by: For the love of running
I have used many Garmin watch products over the last +-15 years. My latest Fenix 7 sets the benchmark. The extensive features and functions gets me excited to hit the road running or cycling more often.

Does what I want it to.
on December 13, 2023
Posted by: Type2Fun
I bought this watch primarily to help me monitor my health metrics (sleep, heart rate, etc...) and also to keep track of my outdoor activities (running, mountain bike, horseback riding, hiking...). It does all of that and more. I LOVE the daily suggested workouts. I wish there was a way to get rid of some of the extra things, like golf, which I will never use, but whatever. It was a tough decision between the Venu 3 and this, because the Venu has some features I wanted that isn't available on the Fenix, but ultimately the sports on this one won out. I am still learning all the settings and how to do things, but I'm confident that once I figure it out, this will do all the things I want it to. It's very capable while also being a nice looking watch for everyday wear. I love that my watch supports horseback riding, because a lot of other fitness platforms don't.

Only partially charges

My hopes and faith in owning my first smart watch were high, but, I’m not a fan. I own several Apple devices plus Tag, Rolex, and Tissot watches so I have more than average knowledge of both watches and electronic devices.
I received this watch as a gift, and it worked fine for the first couple days. After that it would only charge about 10%. There are lots of forums addressing this issue but none of the fixes work for me. I will be calling Support to get it repaired or replaced but it will not become a watch that I wear daily as my trust for it is low.

Great Watch
on January 7, 2024

Very functional with lots of utility. My only complaint is it needs a longer 20mm quick attach band. The band it came with only has about 4 notches remaining on my wrist which is barely enough to catch the band strap

I was given the Fénix 7 I can’t get the darn thing to work! Instructions are in small type and the phone doesn’t behave itself! Last night it attacked my wife! It was on Her wrist and she I said it just jumped on there!

Nice watch
on January 16, 2024
Posted by: Florida Runner
I bought a Fenix 7S in June and it stopped working in December. This was an exchange/replacement for the previous one. It seems to be working fine except the battery doesn't seem to last as long as the other one. The watch has very nice features when it is fully working The exchange process has not been smooth

Game changer
on January 20, 2024
Posted by: Kwarenmont24
Christmas gift. I love the data provided about sleep quality, heart data, smart features.
Having never had a smart watch before the Fenix is a great addition to how I attack each day. It linked with strava and Zwift with relative ease making heart rate data available on all of my logged rides.
Smart features that work with my phone include text messages, find my phone (so long as garmin connect feature is running in the background), and calendar.
I plan on using the map feature once winter breaks.
So far so good. I’m very pleased with this compared to what an Apple Watch provides.
