Fenix 6 Pro

I went directly from the apple watch to the fenix 6 pro sapphire expecting a huge upgrade. In short, it isn’t, but after having it for a while (and later getting the epix) I don’t miss my AW. Fitness feature wise, there’s more, but not so much more that I feel there’s a major difference. Phone connectivity wise, the Garmin is actually extremely rudimentary. What sold it for me in the long run is the long lasting battery life and durability of the watch. I no longer have to worry about my watch when out rock climbing, backpacking, or mountain biking. My sapphire crystal display is flawless after multiple impacts with granite/quartzite in the cottonwood canyons of Utah. I took a gnarly MTB fall and the bezel scratched, but the display was fine. Also, if you have other garmin devices (I have an inreach and edge bike computer), it syncs well with them. Otherwise, if you’re comparing them as smart watches, keep the AW

Me too, and it works perfectly

I’m stuck rocking the Fenix 6 from 2019

I would love the red light in my watch but not going to upgrade just for that.

I have a Fenix and I use it for mostly walking, some hiking and biking I haven’t taken it off since I bought it in 2019. Fantastic watch

You should first think about what you need from the watch, then choose between the models that offers that specs. Without knowing your use case, the Suunto race S is difficult to beat. I use a Fenix 6 pro myself. I like the maps to be customizable, but when it dies I will change brand. Prices in new Garmin releases are too high in comparison with other brands offerings.

Fenix 6 pro. But looking to change it before spring for something newer and improved battery life.

I have a garmin fenix 6 pro and it’s underestimating my calories daily by about 200. According to the watch data and tracking every morsel of food religiously, my weekly deficit is ~2200 calories. I’ve lost between 0.5-0.8kg/week for the last 4 weeks. That means my real deficit is over 3500 calories per week. Every BMR/TDEE calculator does the same, underestimates for me. I barely exercise and get about 8000 steps per day at work. 1400 cals a day, 5ft 3 and currently 149lbs

I have an AWU3 and just grabbed a Fenix8. How do you mix their use? Do you use the garmin for sleep? If not, how does that change your training load? I had a fenix6pro that I used for a couple 50k’s, and I want to get back into doing them. That’s why I picked up the 8.

I've bought f6 pro, like 3 years ago for 370€. Best money spent.
