Forget the ladies?

I purchased this watch a week before the Phoenix eight pro came out and this is really an indictment on Garmin and them not
knowing their market. It’s ridiculous for Garmin to not have LTE on the ladies sized fenix 8 pro. Come on. Additionally if you’re gonna force ladies into wearing a watch that looks foolish on their wrist, perhaps put it in a color that’s not black.

So many features!

Upgraded from the Fenix 6x Pro Solar which I loved. The difference in the Fenix 8 is the screen! The newer features, the touch screen, and the slim design yet still holding onto the durable quality make this worth it. I highly recommend this and love that it has a long battery life.

Mixed feelings
on September 25, 2025

I’ve wanted this watch for sometime now. Since buying it I’m still in the process of trying to figure out how to use it. It doesn’t pair as well as I would have thought to Apple so I’m a bag of mixed emotions on this one right now

Received the Fenix 8 as a gift, most likely the best gift ever. I still haven’t figured everything out, but love finding out each feature. The accuracy is amazing. I absolutely love love it.

I bought this a month ago and have loved the features. I had a venu 2plus and really had no complaints about that just wanted a newer model.

My fenix 8 connects with my Shokz headphones and announces my average running pace for each mile! My Fenix 8 also allows me to speak and answer calls during runs(without digging into my running pocket for my smart phone). Of course, I love the handy built in flashlight and beautiful screen. I can increase the font size for the watch face so no squinting to checkout fitness stats! It’s worth the investment!!

What a beauty!

The new watch finally answers phones and has a speaker! What a fabulous feature when you don’t have a phone near by. The screen has large font if needed so I can read all of my text messages and the ecg aspect is fun. I love all of the information on sleep it provides also and only charging a watch once a week is very convenient.
