fēnix 8 Solar 47mm

I was in the exact same shopping dilemma as yourself about 2 weeks ago. I opted for the Fenix Solar 47mm. More expensive than the Endruo3 but I didn’t want the larger sizing. I had a Fenix 5 47mm and wanted similar sizing. On a pure practicality basis - Enduro3 is the clear winner. I wear my F8 Solar 47mm to the office, gym, beach and it’s never looks out of place. Personally the 51mm of the large Fenix and Enduro don’t sit nicely under a closed cuff of a shirt. I also have slim/medium wrists, so the 47mm works better for me Just don’t touch the F8 Pro, waste of money . Another really good option is the F7Pro. Personally too, I deliberately at length over the AMOLED screen vs MIPS. As others say the AMOLED feels too much like a device and gadget. F8 Solar MIPS is certainly bright enough and in “gesture” mode, disappears into the background when not “using” Good luck shopping

It is funny to read all the different lengths people have. For me again it is different, I think it has to do a lot with settings and use. Fenix 8 MIP 47mm, last about 17 to 18 days. All smart phone functions are off, only spO2 when sleeping and 5days a week exercises for at least an hour.

I bought a Fenix 8 AMOLED 47mm yesterday and sold my 8 solar 47mm ( it is unusually thick)

I had the Enduro 3 for a month, but I sold it and got an F8 Solar 47. I also tried AMOLED displays, but I can't stand them and I don't like them. The Enduro 3 had an exceptional battery, but I also found some issues. I didn't like the aesthetics and felt it was too big and thick for my wrist: it was comfortable to wear but really overly bulky. Another thing I didn't like were the buttons, which were really hard to press compared to any other Garmin: much harder than the Fenix ​​7. The speaker and vibration are very weak, and I didn't feel it in the morning when I use the watch's alarm.
