Device consolidation
on September 23, 2025
Posted by: Hiker101
I was able to replace my existing watch and Garmin GPS Map 67i InReach handheld with the Fenix 8 Pro. The Pro uses a reliable cellular network for low power, long distance LTE-M connectivity. For completely off grid it has a satellite transmitter/receiver.
By consolidating devices, I know I always have a backup SOS, etc. tool in places where I usually did not carry my GPS Map - especially if my cell phone that requires daily charging runs out of battery.

I have had this watch for 3 weeks now, it surpasses the fenix 6 and does a great job for keeping me aware of my health. The comfort of knowing I have help with a push of a button is great!

The first Garmin watch I owned was the very first Instinct. This is the second Garmin I've owned and I'm very happy with my purchase.

Garmin Delivers on Quality as Advertised!

Previously had the Epix Pro Gen 2. Loving the new UI on the F8 Pro! Using the voice commands more than I expected to. AMOLED display is bright, clear and crisp; more so than I thought it would be. Overall, this is an impressive watch and I’m glad I purchased it!

This is one exceptional watch!

I've always been a huge fan of Garmin's products on boats, planes, motorcycles and other things I enjoy. So, when I saw the Fenix 8 Pro, I thought I'd give up the self-winding watch I've enjoyed and give this a try. It exceeds all expectations. While instructions look a bit intimidating, it is all pretty easy to work through and you don't have to do everything at once...of course, I did! What I really like is the amount of personalization that is possible. And, it is so comfortable, it is rarely off my wrist!

This watch is absolutely amazing. The display is big and beautiful. It very easy to read and see even in very bright sunlight. The details and craftsmanship are also excellent. As always, Garmin's software gives you everything you need to be your best. The best watch I have ever owned.

Works fine
on September 26, 2025

The watch works amazingly, just as its predecessor the Fenix 8. Sometimes it glitches when you start an activity and you’re already playing music. What bothers me the most so far is the lte connectivity, because that is the reason why I got it. Almost NEVER works. It won’t connect and the calls and the messages just don’t come in or out.
Response from GarminBy Garmin, Care, September 29, 2025
Hi there! Sorry to hear about your issues with the new watch. With the glitching I would first recommend to power the watch off/on. This clears the cache and also please double check that the software is up to date.
With the LTE and Satellite I would recommend to check this article out for troubleshooting. "Troubleshooting the LTE and Satellite Features on a Fenix 8 Pro Watch" - https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=5Rmc5WlNC496mP9wtwsle5&productID=1703902&searchQuery=lte&tab=topics
