I just got my Venu 3 a couple of weeks ago and I love it , it is my first watch ever , I was planing on getting the fénix 7 pro sapphire solar ? What do you think ? Great video

what pc software you use?

I just got a polar h10 today, so if I have everything paired correctly , and go do a run for example, the heart beat reading will be coming from the polar h10 ? Will the data from the workout using the apple fitness app also transfer over to the polar app? Thanks. Only ask bc if I start the workout from the polar app on the watch , there doesn’t seem to be a stop button to end the workout

Mine doesn’t solar charge while a very sunny day over 30celcius. Why might be the reason?

Thanks for the thorough review

In italiano grazie

Which watch face is that? In 255

nice!🎉

The Garmin Instinct is a fantastic watch and function wise pretty much the holy grail of any digital watch lover. However, the design has become boring and is completely outdated, Garmin needs to make something really cool sci-fi/retro/futuristic looking (take a look at the Timex Command Shock for a good example), something in a rectangular 16:9 widescreen format. And please get rid of that stupid circle in the upper right corner it is entirely pointless in a MIP watch and WAY too much Casio'ish (G-Shock'ish).

This was more helpful than the manual even if I'm not using the same model

Nice Thanks for this comparison I will buy 255

I've done this test with the watch turned off under a lamp in a hotel room while traveling when i forgot my charger. It provides about 1 percent overnight. So don't count on it saving your trip. At most it will marginally extend battery life but never enough to keep it going.

My polar sensor battery is not staying in the connector

garmin 7x pro solar sapphire Does your model not have a phone call feature via the watch? In any fenix version?

I feel like my watch does not charge at all with the sun. If I had to do it all over again I wouldn't even bother with the solar charger- for the extra money for solar charging, I would have instead bought thE next level up with the color screen.

Ah for the pro 47mm your sound is terrible wind noise is not awsom I m out

I got it for 650€ that was worth it for 900 its not worth it.

Cool

When I connect to WiFi and request maps it doesn’t give me any option, just takes me back to the + add maps page.. any ideas? I’m in the UK and using a Garmin 7x solar

I don't have Spotify listed in my music providers. What should I do?

Thing is...my watch constantly does the time sync with my phone, but it never automatically corrects the time. And my Fenix 7 Pro drifts quite quickly and severely. Apparently this has been an issue with Garmin watches for many years and I don't get why they can't fix it

Is this the 7x base or 7x pro

Thank you for the content precision and conciseness.

Assumes too much. Start with how to open watch menu ...

Nope. Cant find pairing mode on watxh. Where is it?

Good test!

Can you tell me what does it mean HR in the first page? I think it means hours but I don't understand for what. Sorry for bad English.

I have this watch...it s very good! Over all...nice! But...i can not understand...i split my time between austria and greece...in austria the watch doesn t charge very well,i mean solar charge! I was down to greece...my solar charge was powerfull! 100% 9 days straight!!!! I guess the sun hits different back to greece!!!

Do you need outdoors maps+ for this to work as when i click add map nothing appears after it just goes back to add map

GARBAGE!!! - DO NOT BUY > CANNOT REPLACE BATTERY!!!

Kiitos,oli kyllä yllätys että Sodankylästä.T:Niksu Ivalosta😊

The issue is when i select an activity on my garmin watch it does not record any data from the chest strap

how did you get to language - yet another video not explaining the correct method.

What fenix 7 is that? 7x or only 7?

Wow a -7

Thank you! Couldn't find this anywhere!

Thx. Is it possible to backup and save data first and restore it After reset ?

I wish they made a 965 with a MIP display.

Looks super simple, just replaced the battery in my HRM-Pro... was familiar because I also had the HRM-Run and the HRM-Tri. My experience is that the replacement goes okay but the replacement batteries NEVER last as long as the original. The Pro didn't go so well, the gasket on mine came loose when removing the cover and was a pain to get back on. Got it all back together and erratic heart rate.... was 200+ but finally settled into a normal range. Next run it was just high again... took it apart and the gasket was where it should be but a drop of water on the battery tells me its not sealed... not very serviceable is my take away here. Reseated the gasket and will try again.

Poor piece of design from Garmin. Battery retention is weak, O-ring hard to keep in place and get equal crush when re-installing.

Looks great on epix 👍🏽 thnx

So that means if you leave it in the sun for 10 hours a day for 10 days with the power off it will be fully charged. I guess that is ok if you are in a survival situation and lost in the forest. 🫤

Which type of screen is easier to read outside on a bright sunny day when running?

Worked for me other than it took the need for a second replacement battery (Energizer) as the dollar store Sunbeam that I installed the day prior (it’s what I had on hand) did not connect at all with the Garmin app. The Energizer worked instantly. The other thing I should add is the O-Ring, which took a while to reinstall, even with the aid of a mini-screwdriver to keep it in place. Took nearly 10 minutes alone. The rest of the install took mere seconds.

If I charge from my country Malaysia, surely will be 100% 🥵🔥

Заявленное время работы часов на 7 серии вообще не соответствует действительности. С солнечной зарядкой живут меньше чем старые 6й серии. Неудачный продукт, еще и обман про солнечную зарядку. На видео эффект остаточного заряда, так будет и с телефоном, если его выключить и он полежит. То что часы показали еще сутки работы, это не значит что они проживут 24 часа. 😢

i have the fenix 6 pro and the flashlight mode is litterally just the display on full brightness. its enough to not fall on your face but is weaker than a candle or zippo. this seems like quite an upgrade as an emergency light

Ok that's nice but how do you put custom maps on these watches?
