[@Skateurelement]

Been watching all your Fenix 8 videos while deciding to get the watch for myself. Your content is always top-notch-clear, transparent, and super helpful. This one’s awesome, thanks for the great recommendations!

[@ugursayan238]

I think it is one of the best review channels when it comes to Garmin. Thank you 😊

[@DaveDoesFitness]

Wow! Thanks for the kind words 🙏

[@ugursayan238]

@@DaveDoesFitness I live in Belgium and we almost never see the sun. That's why I'm thinking of buying an AMOLED Fenix8. But the problems make me think, to be honest.

[@yourladmilad]

DDF. Just bought the Fenix 8! Excited to use it on my next hike!

[@davidf9027]

Epic 2 51mm here. Almost since day 1, over a year ago, I use the Hemsut (the last one you reviewed here) but the nylon version. Super heavy-duty, I play ball multiple x/week and the band holds up great!

[@Theholyfatherofdeath]

I got the leather hem suit Velcro strap for my instinct works perfectly

[@luboyanev]

DDF just upgraded to the Epix Pro 47mm from a MIP Garmin and still adjusting to not being able to see the time with a quick glance, but overall pretty happy with the change, especially having the flashlight has already come very handy.

[@diegochaput3536]

DDF. Awesome review !! Best garmin review channel, I have an epix pro and I used your advice before getting it ! Awesome, thanks!

[@laikakillah]

DDF I’m rocking a Epix gen pro 2 51mm. Favorite workout indoor cycling.

[@mdsellers63]

DDF - Using an f8 mainly for running and a bit of biking (road/MTB). Love using the Track Run activity for on-track interval workouts looking towards the Indy Half in May.

[@vgammieri]

DDF. I'm on Fenix 7 Pro Solar Sapphire. I have few original Garmin bands, very happy with them, but sometimes I would like to try something different. Your video got me some nice advice and shown me something interesting to try. Thank you 👍

[@DaveDoesFitness]

Glad you enjoyed the video and got some good ideas!

[@aik3eactive]

DDF. I’m still waiting for my Fenix 8 to replace my FR945. Thanks for your video I found the Negatta! Been searching for bands similar to apple watch’s ones where it tuck inside, found one on amazon but not as polished as the negatta!

[@Mdogbrown]

DDF - I plan on getting the F8 solar when it’s available. I love to hike and appreciate Garmin maps and navigation.

[@MrSergeantObvious]

DDF, just picked up my first garmin with the Fenix 8 training for my first half! Big shoutout for doing videos like this dont see many people uploading videos on accessorizing and the aesthetics of garmin's

[@DaveDoesFitness]

I'd say good luck for the half, but it's all about preparation and not luck. You got this! And thanks for watching 💪🏃

[@megalord333]

DDF, Thanks for your review. I almost bought Ancool 7 pack. However I decide to just buy Yooside after your review.

[@joshuagiacone937]

DDF. Super stoked just got a Garmin 955 because I couldn’t justify the fenix 8, so far the DSW and structured swim workouts have been great.

[@spragueinsanity]

DDF: I have the Fenix 8 and was not sure about how good/bad the 3rd party bands are. Thanks for the reviews. Very informative. I do outdoor running and Zwift for indoor cycling. Lots of flop sweat living in Texas, so a breathable watch band is a must.

[@DaveDoesFitness]

Hey @spragueinsanity. You won the Abanen nylon band! I tried emailing you and it bounced back. Reach out to me at davepdoesbiz at gmail dot com so I can get this shipped over to you!

[@hughsprague]

@@DaveDoesFitness just sent you an email. Thanks!!!! I look forward to using this new band.👍

[@isaacleachman1358]

Never watched your vids, but I rly liked the intro, nice work it isn’t too long and very cool to view. Great vid too very informative!

[@bwalbwal7895]

This was a funny but true review. I love how I can customize my Garmin but the Garmin prices are killers!

[@leandroiw2942]

DDF, Garmin Fenix 8 watch. Thank you so much for your reviews :).

[@DaveDoesFitness]

Glad you like them!

[@gustavorocha5795]

DDF. Have a Fenix 6 Saphire and my favorite activities are running and kitesurfing. Have been watching all your videos about the Fenix 8, which I'm thinking about it, but, sincerely inclined to get an Epic 2 Pro, because of the price diference.

[@rideSYV246]

Love it, Thanks! was just thinking about this.

[@benlipper]

DDF Thanks so much! I really appreciate your reviews of these bands

[@plys1111]

DDF I just got Fenix 8 - Thank you for the content I am thinking of getting nylon band for the first time.

[@markmcc1]

Good job doing reviews unlike all the others.

[@admiraljamster]

DDF - I have the Garmin Fenix 8 AMOLED 47mm. My favourite activity has to be road cycling but I usually do it for fun and less for fitness. For fitness wise my go to is the gym to build a body💪

[@piotrreq]

DDF I just got my new Fenix 8 Solar and next Saturday I'm running my first "extreme mountain half marathon" with it! ;)

[@ngoalpo]

Thank you for the review!

[@LS98]

DDF I have an Expix Gen 2 and i like to do my three-mile treadmill run every morning.

[@wil4783]

Good review!! I myself use a cheap knock off nylon band 3 usd/pcs from my country marketplace. I bought 3, two for the arm band, and for everyday use on my epix. I love the silicon but nylon is more comfortable imo. You know you dont need to glue the velcro, I sew them. More long lasting, and you can hardly notice it hehe Ps: arm band is for working, because I cant wear watch for hygiene reasons

[@Raiquan2]

DDF - Rocking the Fenix 8 and so far, so good

[@Benka98]

DDF, fenix 7 picked it up half a year ago and love the festures vs my old trusted vantage v 🤝

[@mw0hac]

DDF I have the fenix 8 love it best watch ever and my favourite sport is strength where I have created my own program

[@AndyMills-j6x]

DDF. F8. Thanks for the video.

[@neogenesus]

Using the Enduro 3 with Negatta silicone.

[@DJaquithFL]

So far for the money -- $18 Abanen Upgraded Quick Fit 22mm Elastic Band. I like it better than my $150 Garmin Heathered Black Nylon band.

[@jeff_aurand]

DDF I'm are Forerunner 965 guy, primarily a cyclist but dabble in running.

[@markocampo8979]

Ddf. I got my first watch garmin fenix 8 solar! Will use the watch for sleep monitor and health tracking. Do people normally get two watches one for black and for the titanium color if garmin will be the only watch they wear?

[@vosch8229]

Once I went for nylon, I am never going back. Sad that 3rd party manufacturers don't have all colors that Garmin has (e.g. red).

[@RoryCONeill]

Anyone looking for Titanium bands Check out the Vented Titanium Dupes I found. 👀 I tried to link it here but I think it's filtering it. Vids up on my channel. Excellent work DDF! 🙏

[@aasheimbjj]

DDF - Fenix 8 47mm with beta software so it doesnt turn off in the cold water!

[@ahmedabdulaziz7271]

great review.. thanks so much 💚

[@ah-duck]

DDF - Hope that I can win 1 to replace my FR955 strap. Good Luck all. Thanks again for the free gift.

[@royalahale]

DDF - Have the Forerunner 955 use it for cycling, rowing and hiking

[@misterkgomes]

DDF I'm Kevin from Canada Fenix 6 Pro I'm looking to upgrade. Maybe to an Epix or Epix Pro. I love bike riding and strength training with my Garmin

[@magedhabashi8228]

DDF F8, thank you

[@tasos.k]

I would love Garmin to come out with an orange-colored nylon strap.

[@PS-ul2nm]

DDF epic 2 pro!

[@dreammovies21]

What do you think about order bands from Temu or simiral application, is it totally sh*t? Thank you for the answers! : )

[@Whoadayson]

DDF Fenix8 and 0:49 LMAO!!!!

[@715mxrider]

DDF Fenix 7 Pro MTB

[@Nico1506]

DDF my fenix 6 pro could use a new band ^^

[@2222pepi]

DDF, Just a wrist , waiting for thr watch.

[@newsnetworkz]

Yes Garmin sucks on band prices

[@nosemellon]

I'm mildly obese and I rock a fenix 8..... You don't have to be an Adonis to look epic.

[@reactionsok]

DDF stop overpaying for bands. My favorite activity is watching KZbin videos.
