Your favourite smartwatch?
I used to be in your shoes. Battery life is still Apple Watch’s Achilles heal. The Garmin Fenix 8 is pointlessly expensive So I have TWO recommendations for you: Garmin Fenix 7: I still can’t come up with a reason to get the 8. The 7 does everything you need it to but… So does the Garmin Fenix 5! Fi

F7X Pro Solar to Enduro 3?
Agreed, I own (and love) the Enduro 3, and I'm getting a little over 3 actual weeks of battery time with running and using gps 6-7 hours a week (spread across 5 days). Which is incredible for my use-case, and way longer than my 47mm Fenix 7 had.

Recommendations for mid-level fitness watch?
Yeah I have a fenix 7 and love it. I don't use half of the stuff it can do but wanted a watch with music and decent GPS that I didn't need to charge every day.

WICH ONE
To summarize my experience: I also came from a Fenix 7, specifically the Sapphire Solar. I used it constantly, as I live in a mountainous area and really valued the map function. I wanted to try to survive without Garmin; they're incredibly expensive, and 90% of their app store consists of paid ap

Are their Grit X2 metrics reliable?
I've been a Garmin user until the V3. Recently went on a run with someone with a Fenix 7 Pro in a city on a route I've done dozens of times. My GPS data was perfect. More accurate than any time with my single-band Garmin or my buddy's dual-band 7 Pro.

Fenix vs coros
Can’t be coros for battery life. I have a fenix 7 pro. No issues. Both will have issues in heavy woods areas over long periods of time. Speaking from a good bit of use in the white mountains. With the way garmin is going with pay to play. I’d personally opt for coros if i was buying today

What kind of watch do you wear?
+1 for Garmin. Have a Fenix 7 solar. I wear it daily and have shocked at how well it stands up to scratches on metal etc. For a color touch screen watch, I worry every time that it or bezel will be scratched. Nothing so far. As others have said, the solar is worth it. Do not get the smallest size as

Fenix 8 Solar or Fenix 8 Amoled? Which one will you get? [Poll]
Since my first Fenix 5 Plus, I have had multiple Fenixes and Tacitxes. This week, I received my F8 Solar 47mm as a warranty replacement for my Fenix 7 Pro. I didn't want to replace it since the F7 Pro had everything: the same sensor, the same GNSS chipset, etc. I had even grown accustomed to that ug

New Instinct 3 Solar
I planned on this one or the twilight but went with Fenix 7 Pro because of maps and storage

Frustrated with Watch Options
My fenix 7x has 50 hrs of battery life in GPS mode. I haven't had any issues with it at all, and I prefer the mips display over the newer amoled offerings
