    This watch is excellent it helps me track so much information for my running. I like that every morning it has a recovery summary and daily suggestion. The gps seems better than it did on my fenix 6 too

    Excellent watch. I had many fintess watches from fitbit to the most recent galaxy watch 7 and 7 pro and the fenix 8 is by far superior as a fitness watch

    It’s a great watch that does everything and the build quality is superb. However I had to return it because it did not come preloaded with topo maps. Only the sapphire crystal version does. So I got a FR750 and that solved the problem.

    I gave this watch my daughter was really into hiking as a high school graduation present. It is absolutely incredible. It blows my Apple Watch out of the water. It has incredible mapping features and GPS features. Highly recommended.
