My husband bought me this a couple weeks ago. So far I like everything on the watch. I dislike having to download all these different apps because I hate apps on my phone.

Love this watch!

I've had a couple of Garmins in the past and am in love with this watch! The old 920 XT and 910 were great for multisport but the solar charging and the screen are what I love most about this. For being an athlete that maximizes my time out on a course, having solar was important. I just switched back to Garmin from Apple and was nervous about the size difference, but the 42mm felt great and I got used to it in no time. I just wish there were more bright and fun watch band colors available.

So far so good

I originally bought this for my wife, but she thinks it’s too big for her, even though it’s the small. I am still figuring out a lot of the features. I was especially interested in the ski power function for cross country ski training. While the power readings may be usable when averaged over several seconds, they are too unreliable for instantaneous readings. Case in point: Some of the power readings during an easy warm-down after an intense interval session were considerably higher than during the high-effort intervals themselves. I think it is better to rely on the heart rate or even the respiratory rate to gauge your effort if needed.

Health metrics and functionality
on October 13, 2023
Posted by: healthyishmama
I switched from a different smart watch specifically to get better health metrics and longer battery life; I wish I had done this sooner! This watch has everything I wanted and more, if I can't figure out how to do something I just look on the Garmin website and it's easy to find the answer. One additional feature I never knew I needed is the flashlight, highly recommend.

My first Garmin and I love it!

I weighed the Venu 3, Fenix Pro, and Epix Pro for months, and settled on the Fenix 7S Pro. I have tiny wrists and this watch fits really nicely.
The reason I went for the Fenix over the Epix is that I read a review that said the Fenix is very watch-like whereas the Epix is more phone-screen-like and I love watches. I have absolutely no issue with the screen's brightness. It's lovely. And I love that it can be on dimly all the time without draining the battery. I have a stock analog face on and the way it reflects really makes it feel like it's got metal hands in there.

I chose it over the Venu 3 because of the added features. I'm not the most active person, and I was hoping this would encourage me to do more and it totally does. I'm like my own science experiment now. And when I'm camping or traveling with my kids, the flashlight is SO handy. And frankly, I'm a worry wort, so the bread crumb feature when I hike in the woods with my kids is nice to have, especially since we got lost once before.
It's a LOT of watch, but that is what makes it so fun. And I love that Garmin is compatible with almost anything. I've got an android tablet and a laptop (no phone) and it works with both. I'm really happy.

Excellent features and look
on December 23, 2023

The watch face is easy to read while riding or running. The fact it connects to my Zwift trainer is fantastic. The light is a great feature and added bonus.
