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

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.

Good amount of features. No YouTube music access which is a bummer. Fits well on my 7in wrist

battery life is good GPS works good it is a good watch

This watch truly does it all, and it has been a lifesaver for me--probably in a literal sense. Its comfortable and it looks great, especially with customizable watch faces. Battery life is superb. Super easy to use, and they seem to have thought of everything (example: turning off touch screen while youre recording an exercise activity but still allowing scrolling/functionality with intuitive button presses). The data collected are really helpful, especially if you sync them with Strava (subscription costs extra). I bought the HRM-one heart rate monitor to pair with it and it works very well. I had been concerned about the accuracy of the watchs HRM readings, but it turns out they were mostly pretty dead on. With the strap I also get all sorts of useful info about my gait efficiency. I really want to give this 5 stars. THE ONLY ISSUE is the fitness tracker/recommendations. I have been working out A TON ever since I got this, which was sort of the point. This watch wants me to slow down and do more low aerobic activities. As a result, for two weeks it has been warning me Im unproductive and my stats (VO2 max and heat acclimation) have backslid inexplicably even though Im working out all the damn time (in summer heat, no less). Sure, I may be overdoing it a little, but this watch cant seriously think Im trending backward in terms of my fitness level. I appreciate the amount of thought and expertise that apparently went into these metrics, but how about some credit for putting in a whole lot of work?? I was hoping the HRM strap would help the app recalibrate its expectations based on more accurate biodata, but if anything this problem got worse. Garmin product support specialists were awesome and friendly, but all they could tell me was to take these automated assessments with a big grain of salt. I didnt buy this watch expecting it to be my personal trainer, but to the extent it wants to be, it comes up woefully short. OH, and also I think I may be allergic to the blue titanium bezel and clasp, so if your skin is sensitive to certain metals, be careful.

First off, this isnt a cheap watch, so I was apprehensive about purchasing it. Read a ton of reviews and did a lot of research. This watch is worth every penny. The battery life is unbelievable. You really dont need to charge it for days even weeks depending on usage. The screen is large enough while not being too large. I love the entire Garmin ecosystem. Ive purchased a bunch more sensors for heart rate, biking, etc. The data is accurate including the GPS tracking. Just a great watch.

Battery life is great,the watch is more than I need but you get what ya pay for and so far it’s preformed flawlessly.Well worth it’s price

After a lot of research I decided to buy this. When I got it I was extremely disappointed in the screen color and the screen is pixelated. The watch faces looks terrible along with everything else displayed. I sent back and got a epix gen 2. WOW what a difference colors and detail are amazing along with the watch and everything it can do. Trust me you won’t be happy with sapphire dolor

Watch itself is everything you researched on YouTube videos, amazing piece of gear for EDC and fitness. Low rating was that watch was delivered with box seal open already?! Item was inspected thoroughly and looked new, watch also registered online with Garmin website/ app, so must be new and legit right?! Still sketchy, but watch is performing as needed so far.

While from the product photo, it appears the blue is more of a dull-ish blueish grey, I’m still overall happy with the watch. Also I wasn’t aware the side profile was white, so adding stainless steel band to make it more modern and classy didn’t work to the full effect I wanted. Nonetheless, Garmin makes wonderful watches and could never after going through over 10 Fitbits, I am happy to purchase something with more longevity.

Nice buy
