Customer Ratings & Reviews

This was a purchase for my son’s Christmas present. We both had smart watches from a computer and phone giant. Our real life experience was, barely a day’s worth of charge. I quit using that watch and went back to my Garmin, it lasts for days. I went with this wat h for my son as he had a bigger need than I did. He received it Christmas Day and can’t say enough good things about it. It has been twenty days and he still hasn’t put a charge on it. This includes workouts and other needs this watch takes care of. I am glad Best Buy had this particular watch available when I went looking. Thank you Garmin and Best Buy.

Upgraded from a Fenix 5X and I enjoy the new features on the watch. So far I’ve not had any issues with the watch. I specifically use it for running, mountain biking and road biking. Works great and the battery is just as good as the Fenix 5X.

My fenix 8 is awesome. Battery life seems to be good even running the GPS & blood oxygen, altitude climbing is spot on.

Great device, premium gps watch, It works for any sport or activity where you need it.

This is an outstanding watch. I was using Apple Watch Altra but this is better in terms of GPS accuracy and battery life is significantly better, Give you a run for your money.

I bought this watch for weight training and calorie tracking and it has exceeded my expectations. You can set your workout in the app, send to the waych and it guides you through everything including rest periods! It is so simple to set treadmill running intervals directly from your wrist. The battery life is so long you rarely have to charge it.

Works perfectly no issues glitches. Expensive but stands out and last for about35 days before changing

Does a great job with the functions described. Fits comfortably and only complaint is that to look at what options are available for the nickel contacts on the back of the watch if you are allergic. Battery life is insanely good.

I've been using the Garmin Fenix 8 Pro for several months and find if extremely reliable. The addition of a bright AMOLED screen finally make this device great for indoor and outdoor use, all without sacrificing battery life. In addition to this, a built-in light makes this device a perfect companion for practically all occasions.

Great watch, personally love the size. Got it to keep track of heart rate and ECG. Really love the fact that the battery last almost a month instead of having to charger daily from other ones i have had. Only thingi don't like is the band. But already looking to replace it with an aftermarket one.

Excellent watch. My first one. Battery life is awesome! Had to watch some videos on how to use it but once you understand how it operates, it’s pretty easy. Very happy with my purchase!

Absolutely love this watch, it’s super smart, the battery lasts a really long time, and it is super durable!

writing this review after getting frustrated with whoop subscription , apple watch letting me down with only single band accuracy for runs and only basic health info. Garmin Fenix 8 is by far most accurate watch in terms of all data , maintaining 95-98% . while apple watch at 89-94% accuracy . Compatible with strava , has offline maps with topo , and mic , speakerphone . ECG app is not FDA approved . NASA just partnered up with Garmin and planning Fenix 8 for astronauts . Battery life ? well you will forget charging

Love the battery life of this watch. 28 days is amazing. I’m an avid outdoorsman and really appreciate the integrated maps and improved navigation features

Absolutely amazing watch! Garmin has made such a fantastic product. Everything about this watch I enjoy. The only downside is the price.

I came from a Fenix 5x and this is leaps and bounds ahead of it. Wrist HR is great, Activity tracking is fantastic, smart features rival those of phone brands and the battery life somewhere around 20-30 days depending on how much i use the GPS functions. Closer to 20 days since I walk for about 1.5 hours daily using the GPS.

I have many watches, but this is my favorite one for work. I’m actually a firefighter and allows me to roam around the mountains without getting lost. Best thing about this watch, that it assisted me with saving one of my firefighters when he went down on a fire assignment. I had no GPS on hand and this watch allow me to give coordinates to air attack and dispatch a helicopter to my location. I was able to short haul my guy to safety.

Watch face is bright even in direct sunlight, the AMOLED display uses more battery than my old garmin Fenix 7X, but it still lasts 16 days of.battery life.

I returned for the same watch but the 47mm. I want it more for golf and I thought the 51mm and band width would become an issue during the summer heat. The 47 mm seems to be a perfect size, very light weight and the face size is perfect. For the 47mm I’d give it a 5 star. Just got the Garmin Range finder z30 which will Bluetooth to the Garmin Fenix 8 watch.

Best garmin watch on the market, will not use any other watch. Tracks your sleep , steps , HR - blood oxygen. And much more. The best piece of technology iv ever used for a watch.
