This device is excellent. I’ve used it for a few months, mostly for walking/running tracking heart rate, calories and sleep. I have switched off the smart connectivity (i.e. notifications from my phone) as I don’t need this and want to preserve battery life.
1. GPS reliability / speed of connection is great. I have no issues getting an initial connection, nor do I see a drop out whilst using it on an activity (my previous v1 Garmin Instinct had a slow initial connection and would sometimes lose signal during an activity). Obviously if you’re amongst tall buildings there will be an issue, but it’s superior to my Garmin Instinct on the regular runs that I do.
2. Battery life is fantastic. I really wanted to get the solar version but this is even more money, so I settled for this. I have no issues at all with the battery. I can use it for > 2 weeks with 5 runs per week (using GPS tracking) and it just copes with it fine. I wear the watch most of the day and use heart rate / sleep tracking etc. I can’t even say how long it lasts, since it lasts so long I don’t know. I did work out that it is possibly losing 5% charge for a 1 hour activity with GPS tracking. So I think that it might struggle towards the end of an ultra-marathon, but for a couple of weeks of many activities/long runs, it is brilliant. If you do ultra-marathons, maybe go for the pro or solar version.
3. The options for running are great – e.g. structured intervals, lactate threshold test and more.
Where I think it can be improved upon:
1. Initially a little disappointed with the screen contrast. But this is designed this way to be low power consumption, so i’m OK with this given the device does what it’s supposed to do so well.
2. The app is a little clunky.
3. Minor improvements could be made – e.g. the ability to set a running activity profile to use km, and another to use miles (currently this is a global setting).
The above are minor issues and overall i’m very pleased with this watch.
Just a brilliant piece of kit for a beginner .
There is a wide range of data from
Basic cardiovascular to oxygen sats to sleep patterns . There is more athlete oriented data including V02 max . Some data takes week to be generated . This is an ongoing process .
Along with the garmin scales you can daily monitor your body fat composition .
There are many invaluable data sets .

I wanted a long running battery with good navigation and so far good! Over the weekend, I did a trail run for over 15hours in ‘All Systems’ mode (I used RacePro with navigation), and the battery is still on!
The watch initially felt too big, compared to my previous watch (Garmin Instinct), but I am now ok with it.
This watch does everything you want a watch to do… The golf function is every bit as good as the former dedicated Garmin golf watches I’ve had. And has an abundance of extras to use.
I’ve set it up to assist me with monitoring my health care via the heart and BP functions and I have already been able to input data that I previously stored on paper. The data can be downloaded and manipulated into easy to access and understand graphs and pie charts in PDF format that I can share with my GP and other health care professionals.
The watch is most aesthetically appealing and I am discovering more and more useful applications as I explore the intuitive nature of the software design. It was really easy to set up and the associated and useful guidance on quick set up processes along with the connections App were exceptional. I really love the product and become more endeared as I explore the different aspects of the design.
Now that in itself was a big change, the watch is big which took a little getting use to.
I have used Garmin on my bikes for years with no issues, and the watch was the same – no issues at all. Records all my activities easily, gives me a good insight into my sleep patterns as well.
All in all, a great bit of kit, and invaluable for people who lead an active lifestyle
I did loads of research to choose a watch to match my needs, which came down to between the Fenix 7 and Epix 2 and whether the better quality Epix ameloid screen was worth the extra money. Although I only have a dull January to go from, the Fenix 7 screen is clear and easy to see, so I’m completely happy with it.
Als vervanging voor een Apple Watch, ben meer gaan sporten. De data en motivatie om verder te komen met sporten is echt next level. Zou volgende keer wat voor het duurdere glas gaan. Krijg wel krasse
Great and easy to use. Has more features than I care to use but it does have some added ones that have made me more cognizant of my need for rest.
Wanted an all round smart watch for ages
Had a few apple watches which are good
but this Garmin is night and day better
It looks great has all the apps and sports on it and unlike apple 99% of them are either pre loaded or free on the Garmin app very happy
Update the case is easier to scratch than I would of liked
Good to be able to plot my own routes on OSMap and then add to Garmin although unfortunately the Garmin app has an error unless you upload and save the .gpx file using another app first.
On the negative side – from day one, the pool swimming activity did not work. The watch was unable to count pool lengths, something the Fenix 6 did perfectly well. This confused me greatly, that Garmin would release the 7 without having made sure everything worked. After several weeks Garmin introduced a patch for this and other teething problems the watch had. Thankfully that fixed the problem.
Now to the most disappointing part – The back/lap button (bottom right button) on the Fenix 7 has stopped working after about 8 weeks usage – this, frankly, is unnaccepable for such an expensive piece of kit, so I will be sending this watch back for a replacement as soon as they are back in stock.
Overall a fantastic piece of kit – but with some teething problems.
Some great apps , all a bit complicated to start with but follow instructions and your away , solar charging keeps it charged up but not fully , waterproof etc good maps , fitness tracker etc
Some cool watch faces to download and straps are real easy to change
L’ESTETICA VERAMENTE CARINA e raffinata con la cornice argento su grigio che rende l’orologio adatto a situazioni sportive ma anche formali, niente a che vedere con le versioni dominanti nere (per me poco accattivanti) dei precedenti modelli un vero upgrade estetico che rende questo Fenix 7 pi poliedrico.
LA DIMENSIONE INTERMEDIA DA 47MM perfetta sia come peso dell’orologio che come leggibilit dello schermo.
LE MAPPE
Ho letto commenti inesatti sul discorso mappe che nei 16gb a disposizione si scaricano comodamente e gratuitamente da Garmin Express dopo aver collegato l’orologio al proprio account.
E’ chiaro che bisogna selezionare da Garmin Express solo lo scaricamento della propria porzione d’Europa e non pretenderla tutta senn serve acquistare le versioni con 32gb di memoria.
LA RICERCA GPS rispetto al mio precedente Fenix (che poteva impiegare anche oltre un minuto a trovare i satelliti) veramente migliorata moltissimo ed in pochi secondi si pronti a partire.
IL CARDIO AL POLSO invece ha prestazioni che sono un p migliorate sia rispetto al mio vecchio Fenix che al Huawei Gt2 ma che non hanno ancora raggiunto quelle perfette che si ottengono con il collegamento di una fascia cardio (non per forza Garmin).
LA BATTERIA invece il plus pi grande (insieme al miglioramento gps) ed veramente infinita anche con le notifiche attivate che provengono dal telefono collegato costantemente in bluetooth: io ad esempio ce l’ho da una settimana, sono andato 2 volte in escursione ed ho ancora 14 giorni di autonomia senza averlo mai ricaricato!
Col mio vecchio Fenix dopo 24 ore avrei dovuto ricaricare!
IL TOUCH l’altra novit di questa versione che funziona direi bene ed in modo fluido.
UN OROLOGIO SPORTIVO E NON
E’ chiaro che rispetto agli smartwatch classici , oltre alla mancata possibilit di rispondere alle chiamate (non ci sono microfono ed altoparlante ma in ogni caso le telefonate in arrivo appaiono a display ) mancano tutta una serie di “ciappini smart” come lo schermo amoled pi luminoso, il trova telefono e le miriadi di schermate diverse “per cambiargli faccia” acquistabili sugli store Huawei, Samsung ecc.. qui invece le possibilit di modifica sono pi limitate.
IN PI PER COME AL SOLITO il Fenix ha funzioni importantissime come il trackback che ti permette di tornare al punto di partenza di un’escursione con l’orologio che ti indica sempre la direzione impedendoti di perderti funzione non presente sugli orologi “pi smartosi”
PURTROPPO dopo diversi mesi di utilizzo devo rilevare che LA CONNESSIONE Bluetooth ogni tanto si perde e va forzata avviando la app Garmin
In ogni caso PER ME STATO UNA PIACEVOLE SORPRESA e ne consiglio l’acquisto a chi fa attivit sportiva a qualsiasi livello ed anche l’upgrade da versioni pi datate della 6.
Ti ringrazio per il tempo che hai speso a leggere questa mia recensione che spero ti sia stata di aiuto!
