Greater than one weekGuess I should have watched, no pun intended, more closely when I was choosing the watch, I wanted one with the flashlight, didnt realize it only came on the 7X model

> 3 dayI have been waiting for this watch for a long time and was happy when it went on sale. Before that, I used the Phoenix 5X for 4 years and was in love with this watch, but the 7X version attracted new features and a touch screen. I finally bought them and was very happy. But soon after the purchase, I discovered a feature that upset me insanely - I have tattoos on my sleeves and you know what? The sensors doent read the heart rate through the black tattoo on my wrists! I didnt understand what was going on, I thought I got damaged product until I found the source of the problem. I do workouts and my activity indicators are very important to me. And now how do I know how many calories I burned during the day if all my data is incorrect?! I set the Strength Training mode during the gym session and the watch does not count the calories I spent! My entire training process is flushed down the toilet because Garmin has updated the optical sensor on the watch. I checked the watches on the hands of my friends who doent have tattoos and they work for them. I read on the Internet and found out that this problem exists in people with dark skin. A large amount of melanin is now a problem! I repeat, everything worked perfectly on the Phoenix 5X. Dont you think it smells like racism? How do I wear this watch now? Do I need to cut out the skin on my wrist for the watch to work on me?

> 3 dayThis watch is incredible. The soft flexible band is comfortable (I cant wear metal bands anymore as they interfere with typing and mouse). Its big enough (I tried the 7X and its nice but its too heavy for me even though it fits better). I wish this one had the LED light but thats about all I miss from the 7X. The battery lasts over a week and i use it for hiking, cardio, breathwork, and much more. There are so many cool faces you can download and the way the hiking topo maps keep track of your hike is cool. I love the stress numbers, the sleep numbers, and just all the data in general. If you are a data nerd and love data, you will love this watch. There are just so many pros and very few if any cons. The only thing I dont love is the proprietary charging cable and I have to take it off to charge a couple of times a month. The solar is cool but even with a few hours of exposure daily, it wont charge it all the way. It will give you a few percent a day, so even if you were camping or away from power for a week, you still wont need to charge it. There are so many settings that you can make the watch unique. I might consider the Epic over this if you like more colors. Fenix 7 series is 64 colors and the Epic is 64,000 plus the Epic display is the bomb but no Solar is available. If youre an active person or just a golfer (lol) you will love this watch. I cant recommend this enough.

> 3 dayAfter living with a daily charger watch. I decided to get something that could handle all of my applications without dying at the end of the day. It was a struggle to make the decision as the watch is not inexpensive, but once I had it in hand I knew that I had made the correct decision. Tons of capabilities which I learn about daily.

> 3 dayI tried the Fénix 5X and returned it because it was very tedious to use the maps with buttons only. The Fénix 7X Sapphire Solar not only solves this problem but has a massive increase in battery life and better sensors all around. Most well-traveled trails don’t need fancy GPS watches, but I’ve been going off the trails more and more, and having an accurate GPS and not just a breadcrumb app is convenient. It beats relying only on Compass and maps only.

> 3 dayNeed 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.
