How would you compare this to the fenix 6s pro solar? I "upgraded" back in april to the fenix from the forerunner 935 and the battery life on the fenix is absolutely horrendous

Track running today, start , stop, save...activity on watch, on garmin connect just a move iq, nothing else....everything else sync ok. I start to regret buying this product.

> I'm looking for a watch for swimming that allows me to create my own training program, that allows me to define at what distances I want to be notified (via vibration), for example, I want my watch to vibrate when I reach 1km, 2.5km and 5km.

> and if I create a training plan with rests in between I want it to transition between the swim and rest steps automatically

can you confirm if that watch does this?
this may seem like a simple thing to ask, but many watches don't have these simple features for swimming, I stress the word swimming, because for running they all have a lot of features
thank you for your time

My issue is how disconnected the Garmin ecosystem is. Some stuff you have to do on the watch, some in the mobile app and then some in the web app. Very annoying and Garmin DOES NOT listen to user’s requests. There are simple features, such as calendar updates, which have been requested for 5+ years and they just ignore us.

“Frictionless “. Yep, certainly less friction. It’s why I bought the Apple, even though I wanted the Garmin.

Good video, thank you! I would note too that Garmin watches hold up a LONG time!!! As do apple products, to be fair. (I'm an huge android fan!) In the last 10 plus years, I'm only on my 2nd garmin watch. I forgot the first model, but my 630 still lasts WEEKS without needing to be charged! I bought it refurbished. But, my work is offering a health incentive, so I can actually look at new watches. An HR wrist based watch with storage for music/audiobooks so I don't have to run with my phone, sounds great! Built in golf tracking. And a tracking map when I go hunting, so I don't get lost. I definitely think i'll go with the 965!!!

mostly do cycling and brisk walking, would this be a good watch? im torn between this and the instinct 2x. love the ruggedness and solar of instinct 2x, but I also love the features of 965

Tenho p 735xt, e por enquanto está ótimo, tenho todas funções que preciso!

Does the watch have acrued time? So you get a break down of per mile also with the combined time of 2 miles, 3 miles, 4 miles to what ever distance u run.

I’m between Forerunner 965 and a Fenix 7 Solar (or sapphire)

I’m using it to trailrun/train/lift in prep for Spartan Beast as well as being able to know where I am miles wise when doing the beast. Also an avid backpacker but I already have an In Reach.

Since you own both of these, which would you recommend I buy? Price wise, the 965 is only $200-300 cheaper.

I don’t know if I’d be using all the other functions of the fenix but I do weightlifting religiously, so not sure if the activity tracking for fenix is better than the 965? In terms of looking at “life after” my spartan race

I’m looking at either getting the Garmin fenix 6 pro or the forerunner 955. I want something that will be good for occasional backpacking with no service with a good battery life, but is also great for everyday wear and running with great navigation. Is the 955 good for all of these things or should I go with the fenix 6 pro?

Last weekend I went hiking on a volcano with my son. As the evening approached, a heavy fog rolled in, and I could literally only see one meter ahead. I'm not sure if I would have been able to find my way back, but fortunately, I used the option to return to the starting point. It was reassuring to have topographic maps, a bright screen, excellent GPS (multiband), and, above all, a battery that wouldn't leave me stranded during the hike. I know that Fenix or Epix are more suitable for this kind of activity, but to be honest, I think this watch does it all. The only difference is that it has a less robust body but is lighter and happy to have $500 saved in my wallet. Everyone weighs their priorities differently. Greetings and great video!

Do u think the traning readiness and training effect worth it? If I do most workout inside gym should I get the venu 3 or 965?
