Garmin fenix 7S Solar, Smaller sized adventure smartwatch, with Solar Charging Capabilities, Rugged outdoor watch with GPS, touchscreen, health and wellness features, slate gray with black band

Love it. Bought it for a trip to the Great Smoky Mountains and it surpassed my expectations. It was awesome having all the hiking s trails on wrist(as well as all my music) and tracking my mileage and elevation changes. Was there for some photography so it was definitely nice knowing sunrise.sunset times as well. Used it while snowboarding and noticed that my watch had 20minutes left. Made sure to leave the face exposed to the sun and after a couple hours of riding it had over an hour of battery life left. So that works. Great all around rugged sleek watch

Best watch Ive ever owned. I owned the garmin fenix 3 and the garmin 935. This watch blows them out of the water. No regrets.

I have been an Apple Watch gal for as long as smartwatches have been a thing. However, I mountain bike and spend a lot of time outdoors, and wanted something a little more durable and with a better battery. I considered the Apple Watch Ultra however, it only came in one size and I was worried that size would be too large for me so I decided to try this Garmin (my boyfriend has always had Garmins and loves them). To skip all the mumbo jumbo, I ultimately returned this watch and did end up getting the Apple Watch Ultra, and Ill give some pros and cons to tell you why! Pros: - Battery life: this thing really does last forever. The Apple Ultra is solid but I do charge it every 3-4 days. The Garmin lasted a week+ - Activity Tracking: I feel like the activity tracking was a tad more accurate than the Apple Watch, although the Ultra does have GPS so this could just be in my head, but my boyfriend and I come out with different stats after bike rides (slightly different mileage, slightly different elevation, etc.) If youre looking for something with precise tracking, since this was Garmins forte, I would probably lean that route. - Sleep Tracking: Because the sleep tracking is built into the Garmin I feel like I liked it better. The Ultra doesnt have a built-in sleep track app so I had to download one on my phone and I have to set it every night. Cons: - Creature Comforts: I would say this was my biggest qualm with the Garmin. I am so used to the creature comforts of the Apple Watch I had a really hard time with the Garmin. Things like: - If your phone is unlocked and open when a new notification comes through, your Apple Watch wont notify you. The Garmin would. - If you arent looking at your Apple watch, the screen wont light up. The Garmin would (in the age of Zoom meetings, notifications would pop up with my head resting on my hand more often than I wouldve liked with the Garmin lol) **Also with the Apple Watch you can choose which apps send notifications to your watch. You dont have this option with the Garmin so if you dont want certain notifications going to your watch, you have to turn them off on your phone too. - UI: The Apple Watch and Watch App are so much more user-friendly in terms of the interface. The Garmin is very bare bones, with not a ton of customization options for the face, etc. The Garmin app is kind of a pain in the rear to navigate and I just feel like Apple has done a stellar job making their apps and products very user-friendly, I missed that when I had the Garmin. - My Apple watch has a Strava app so I can track my rides on my watch without even having my phone with me. There was a Strava app for the Garmin I believe, but you still had to start the ride from the phone. - Music, phone, etc.: You can answer calls on the Apple watch and control music, cant do these things with the Garmin. - Band Options: Apple and Amazon just have more options for Apple watch bands. If youre someone like me who likes to swap out the bands pretty often and like really neat-looking ones, sorry to say, there are way less options for the Garmin. (P.S. Amazon has some phenomenal dupes for the very expensive Apple Watch bands) Comparable Features: - Durability: Both watches are very durable. Ive definitely taken some diggers with the Apple Watch and dont even have a scratch to show for it. **I am a 27-year-old female. I have smaller wrists and the Apple Watch Ultra fits fine. Dare I say the big screen is even kind of nice?? The Garmin also fit very nicely. If you want something a little smaller and thats a thing you definitely DONT want to compromise, go with the Garmin.

I purchased this Fenix 7 to upgrade from a FR 935. Overall the Fenix looks and feel more premium, is more like a general use smart watch. I perceive the screen to be brighter, it is in fact a little bit bigger. I was expecting some improvements in the section for Strength Training, they made some changes but nothing remarkable. I have faced some connection issues from time to time, nothing crazy, but it shows the not connected (to the app) message some times. The widgets are nice, sleep tracking tool is good, you need to get used to sleep with a watch as big as this on.

Need some time to learn controls - expected. I prefer regular non sapphire glass (I own sapphire 6 version)- slightly better visibility inside and supposedly more shatterproof. Be realistic about sizing, I would love to have bigger display and bigger battery but unless you like 250/63 forget about X size.

Not too easy to start and stop activities. Not able to zoom in on maps. The battery last an unusually long time this is great. As for the GPS, well not very accurate as far as I can tell. I got storm warnings when there was no storm while camping at 9500 feet. And no warning when a storm came the next day. I ended up getting caught in a down pour. I am not too pleased. the sleep monitor is very helpful and is a good tool .

Excellent product, the delivery was really fast to arrive to my home in Chile. Its an amazing product. Im changing my Fenix 5 by Fenix 7, I used them a lot because I do triathlon , now my Fenix 7 works really good , the GPS, the sport activities, the connection with Garmin Connect, connection with sensors, connection with Garmin IQ, all works really fine. 100% recommendation.

Nice buy

Expensive but nice

This watch does everything. It’s amazing. I’d strong and durable, dressy for all Occasions and literally tracks everything. This is a much have.
