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). Leave your phone behind, and access voice calls and LiveTrack location sharing when you’re connected to an LTE network. 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.

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.

Very good display and long battery life but I dislike the subscription of the lte and SOS option. If that’s the focal point of advertising this expensive watch then why should that option be paid for when it comes free with most smart watches. Am returning it

Great watch They do everything I need - steps, heart rate, weather. And the most important - the maps!!! Maps have few very important options: - first of all you can download them to use offline. They are topographic and with a lot of details - the second, very important for me is that you have two options for navigation - build a route and straight line witch is very important when you are in the mid of forest with no roads. The battery holds the charge as promised - 27 days Plus they added Satellite service to this model with is very good as well
