The fēnix 8 Pro multisport GPS smartwatch is a breakthrough for serious runners, climbers, watersport athletes and others challenged to stay in contact where it’s impractical to carry a phone. This is the first Garmin smartwatch with built-in inReach technology for satellite and LTE connectivity (active subscription required; coverage limitations may apply; some jurisdictions regulate or prohibit the use of satellite communication devices).

Or utilize two-way messaging and interactive SOS messaging capability during an outdoor adventure from either an LTE or satellite link — with emergency SOS support from the 24/7 Garmin ResponseSM coordination center. This rugged watch brings forward all the advanced fitness/strength training, health monitoring, mapping, round-trip routing and other key features from the fēnix 8 watch line along with a full range of sport-specific workouts. Premium touches include a bright 1.4" AMOLED display, titanium bezel, scratch-resistant sapphire lens and powerful built-in LED flashlight. It also has up to 15 days of battery life in smartwatch mode, a 40-meter dive rating, music storage and more.

A built-in speaker and mic enable you to make and take calls from your wrist when your watch is paired to your smartphone. Power up your body’s performance, endurance and resistance to injury with the latest in targeted strength training plans plus a full range of sport-specific workouts.

I’ve been with Polar for the last 18+ years I truly love the watches… BUT i always wanted a Garmin watch, Well, finally did it and let me tell you I I’m love with this watch! Amazing in every aspect, battery life, display, apps, design!. I’m still learning this watch be cause it has a lot a features! It was expensive but honestly I think it’s worth it. It took me 1-2 days to get used to the size and weight be cuz I have the 51mm. But now everything is good =D. My only complain is the SOS is not free… I’m hoping they will change that.. I understand the phone subscription, but SOS needs to be free. Other than that AMAZING watch!

Watch has so many features i havent been able to use all of them for having the watch for a few weeks already. Battery life lasts a long time more than my Samsung. This has more power and is alot brighter. The band is slightly uncomfortable, so make sure you buy a pack of the silicone or velcro straps

The new Garmin Fenix 8 Pro AMOLED Sapphire GPS watch is a must have and simply amazing! I purchased a Fenix 7 Pro Sapphire from Best Buy and enjoyed it. My latest purchase of the new Garmin Fenix 8 AMOLED Sapphire GPS watch from Best Buy is the best watch ever. I cannot begin to tell how superior the new Fenix 8 is such as a built in EKG and InReach capabilities are paramount if you are going any location where cellular service is limited or nonexistant since the InReach capability is satellite based and allows you to contact help in the event of an emergency or even to contact family friends to let them know that you are okay. The other watches on the market cannnot begin to compete with the new Fenix 8 Pro AMOLED Sapphire.
