Garmin – fēnix 8 Solar Sapphire GPS Smartwatch 47mm Fiber-reinforced polymer – Carbon Gray DLC Titanium – (2024)

Excelente battery life/ gps and other apps. Great - Battery life is amazing. It is great for runners. I love it because I maybe will charge every 3 weeks or 1 time a month. I love the look and size.

Be aware that Best Buy is not responsible if this - My fénix 8 came with the right top bottom damage, i bought in Best Buy app, the phisical store didn’t replace the watch and i still waiting for my replacement or refund for 1 week.

Fénix 8 - Great watch long lasting battery love that better than Apple which every other day had to charge. Light weight but don’t like the band. Will have to change it for another

Garmin fenix 8 47mm solar - So far so good, battery life is 22 days with no GPS at all.

Worth the price tag - I’ve been very happy with the Garmin Fenix 8 overall. I use it every day for workouts, running, hiking, and general activity tracking, and it has become something I rarely take off. Battery life is one of the biggest positives. I like not having to think about charging it every day, especially when traveling or using GPS for longer activities. Even with regular workout tracking and everyday use, the battery performance has been excellent. The GPS and activity tracking have also been very accurate in my experience. Whether I’m running, hiking, or tracking a workout, it locks onto GPS quickly and gives me consistent data. I also really like having my training, recovery, heart rate, sleep, and other health and fitness information together in one place. Performance has been solid. The watch feels responsive, the display is easy to read, and it handles everything I use it for without feeling like a normal smartwatch that needs constant attention. My biggest dislike is probably the price. It’s an expensive watch, and there are a lot of features that I probably won’t ever fully use. Garmin’s menus and the number of settings can also feel overwhelming at first, so there is definitely a learning curve. Overall, though, the Fenix 8 has been a great fit for how I use a watch. If battery life, GPS accuracy, durability, and detailed fitness tracking are more important to you than having a traditional smartwatch, it’s an excellent option.

Fenix 8 Solar - Great watch, seem a little dim, maybe because if solar. Battery life great. Last me a whole month with one charge.

New best friend - First off the watch had me sold on the light… I’m hands on 365 days a year and it’s brighter than my iPhone flash light! Other features I may not use but hey I’m no fitness tracker! Will highly recommend just the fact of the flashlight! The battery is another plus! My Apple Watch wouldn’t last a day! This one will last three weeks!

Best watch - I purchased this watch to be able to track certain health features. I also wanted a watch to be a watch, not a computer on my wrist. I have had other smart watches including apple. Apple's integration is the most seamless with connectivity if you use apple products. I was not looking for this. I did not want my wrist buzzing from messages and phone calls. While this phone has that functionality, I was able to turn it off. The charge on the battery has lasted anywhere from 8-12 days depending on usage which is amazing. It also has solar to help extend the time in between having to charge the watch.

Great watch - I got this as a gift for my husband about a month ago, and he loves it so far. He loves the longer battery life, compared to his previous Samsung watch. He is very happy with the durability of it and how he was able to customize it to watch he wants to have accessible to him and it's comfortable to wear during workouts. Still learning more about it, but great watch so far!

Fenix 8 - It’s everything I expected and more, great watch!!

Garmin - Typical Garmin device. High quality. Great battery life.

Fenix watch - Rock-solid build, insane battery life, ultra-accurate GPS, and top-tier fitness tracking. The Garmin Fenix 8 does everything flawlessly and feels truly premium. Best smartwatch I’ve owned, worth every dollar.

Apple Watch killer - I’m really impressed with this Garmin watch. The best part for me is the battery life. It’s so frustrating to charge my Apple Watch EVERY DAY. I’ll would recommend this watch, specially if you do any kind of exercises.

Best watch I ever had! - Best watch I ever had. The main thing for me was the battery life. I was tired of always charging my watch every few days, now. I don’t charge my watch until 20+days; Also, having the option to charge it via solar I got to say it’s pretty cool! I would like to also add that this watch helps so much by increasing my productivity at the gym. It’s like having a personal trainer next to me tracking every lift, every reps, and every breath I take.

Fenix 8 - I love this watch, great features and great battery life.

Thumbs sideways - Great watch. Not the most user friendly but may take more getting used to.

Excellent Choice - Excellent watch, substantial number of functions to meet every need. Looks good and great battery life.

Will worth the investment - This is the second garmin watch i have purchased. They only are taken off to charge every 2 weeks when i am active everyday. If your looking for the whole package i would recommend this watch.

Wonderful Watch - Another great item by Garmin. Easy to use all functions.

Garmin made my life easier - The Garmin Fenix 8 is the kind of watch that doesn’t just track your adventures — it elevates them.

Whether I’m hiking in the mountains, running in the city, or strength-training indoors, the GPS locks in instantly and the heart-rate tracking is noticeably more precise than previous models.

Garmin managed to create a watch that feels both seriously professional and genuinely motivating. It’s not just a smartwatch; it’s a tool that helps you understand your body, improve your training, and stay prepared for any challenge. If you want a watch that can keep up with every part of your life — fitness, outdoors, travel, and everyday productivity — the Fenix 8 is the one to beat. Absolutely worth it.
