Fenix 6X PRO. Was a new open box item in John Lewis and marked down to £276 about 3 years ago. I’d been looking at an instinct and then saw this and jumped on it. Can’t fault it.
I have a Garmin Fenix 8 AMOLED 51mm, I had about 40% left after my 100 miler a couple months ago. I was previously on the Garmin Fenix 6x pro but noticed battery life wasn’t last quite as long as it used to so I upgraded
Fenix 6X Pro because my previous Garmin watches were Forerunners that didn't last very long before they began having bluetooth issues. I was really angry to deal with that through two watches after only a year and a half on each watch, so I thought I'd buy the flagship to give Garmin one last chance, and it's been an absolute TANK for 3.5 years now.
Garmin has better durability, fitness metrics, and battery life. Pick the Garmin every time if you are looking for a fitness watch.
If you like the smart watch integration into your Apple ecosystem, go Apple.
Currently sporting the Fenix 6x Pro Solar and absolutely love it!
Just moved from 6x Pro after +5 years to an Epix Pro Gen 2. I know it's not the latest o/s but new right now they are half the price of a Fenix 8, half the risk and no regrets. Not a huge difference but feels fresh with a few newer features and love the Amoled screen. The battery is great.
