Great Multisport watch the smartphone is a bonus!!

I've have the Fenix 8 for my active lifestyle. Great battery life, I get around 19 days when I have to charge. I could get 21 days but don't want to risk it. I'm active and record my cycling, running, hiking and sleep. The set-up was easy using the Garmin Command app and Connect IQ for my customizations and the voice commands is great addon. Using the watch as a phone is a plus.

Fix auto dimming light sensor

Excellent watch in every aspect... the only problem is the automatic lighting sensor; it's rubbish. They should fix it with software and make the Fenix 8 the best watch for workouts.

I bought this a month ago and have nothing but problems… I’m on my 3rd device. Everytime it does an update or is turned off the power plug has to be plugged in to get the screen to turn back on. I came from Apple Watch Ultra, and honestly so much more user friendly. I had such high hopes with the Fenix 8 because of friends that had it and loved it. But I’m far from impressed.
