I bought this watch 2 weeks ago I am still learning all the functions. It's very impressive overall. I found that my sleep function and body battery readings stay low even after 2 days of rest and what feels like good sleep. love the GPS and exercise functions along with all the other functions. Coming from Apple there is a definite learning curve. I would purchase again.
Had the fenix 6x pro for many years, finally bit the dust. Got trade in value for it for same cost as replacing it. And upgraded to the 8X Pro. Love the new one with all its features and AMOLED screen. Also a great thing my old watch bands work for it great.
First venture into smart watches. Tracks my metrics and workouts. Syncs well with Samsung phone and other Garmin devices for complete system integration. Lots of features i don't use but would buy again and def recommend to friends.
I bought this a month ago and am delighted w it! It looks cool, the interchangeable watch faces are fun to experiment with, and the amount of data I get is incredible! In GPS mode, it does not need any time to locate the satellites like previous Garmins I’ve owned. It took awhile to get the hang of all the buttons, but once I did it’s no problem. I really appreciate ALL the functions available on this device. The only criticisms are pretty minor: (1) It does seem to get kind of dim in certain lighting conditions, like the “auto brightness” function maybe isn’t the best; and (2) When it displays my sleep patterns the colors used to represent REM sleep and “awake” are so similar that it’s just a little more confusing than it would be otherwise. But I am so glad I bought this watch!
I started with a Fenix 5, moved on to a 6 then a 7. Finally a Fenix 8 amoled watch. Screen is great and easy to read. Buttons are easy to use etc. I am very happy!
