    I bought this watch for training and it was a great watch but a 6 months into owning it the watch kept unpairing from the Garmin connect app. I factory reset it a couple time and ended up swapping it out under the GSP warranty. The second one I got did the same thing and then the third one just stopped updating so I just swapped it out for the instinct 3

    Just have this watch for 3 weeks and I truly amazed with all smartwatches capabilities. It does not look like a smartwatch which is one of my favorites qualities of this product. If you like fitness this is the watch you should buy. 5stars product

    Love the watch and additional features. Had a Fenix 6x. Had a bit of an adjustment at first with the solar ring I did not like the visual as my 6x did not have solar. After some time I have adjusted and love the watch.

    Took back the 7 for the 8 due to the 7 not having a very bright face however the 8 was also $500 more. I do not know if it was worth the additional money or not.

    I’ve only had the watch for a couple of weeks so far I like it a lot a little more complicated to use, and I thought it was gonna be and the instructions are very poor so kind of working my way through all the functions of them as I stated above are a little bit difficult even to get to They could definitely do some work at least instructions if they’re not gonna change the way they apply some of the overall good so far a little uncomfortable. The band is for my wrist.

    One of the best watches of the best watch I’ve had in a long time!! It tracks everything, running, workouts, oxygen level, and heart beat, and a lot more!! I wear all day and don’t need to take it off to charge it specially since I’m outside all day it charges on it’s own!!! Best watch I’ve ever owned!!

    I purchased the Solar Fenix7 for my boyfriend and he can't say enough good things about it. It does everything he needs it for. He had the Fenix 5 previously and liked it but it didn't do everything the 7 does. He really loves the battery life. He literally doesn't need to charge but maybe 7 days out, longer. I would also like to add, Best Buy has really good customer service. I highly recommend this watch and Best Buy. And I will definitely be a repeat customer.

    My boyfriend had the old watch and I got him this one as an upgrade. He raves about how nice it looks, how long the battery lasts, how useful the flashlight feature is, the GPS function is very easy to use and he loves it for hunting and hiking.
