Garmin's Fenix 3 is an extremely versatile multisport watch. The durable device can be used to record data from activities ranging from cycling and running, to mountaineering and skiing.
Does just about everything your cycling head unit does in a smaller package and with a strap
Expensive; notifications can be annoying; navigation
Bought this watch for my husband. Very light weight for its size. Incredible battery life, still on 50% after a weeks use (with 4 for 5 bike rides out using the full GPS). Simple and straightforward to use, with the PC app and the mobile app.
I don't have one bad thing to say about this watch. It tracks well. I never lose GPS or Bluetooth connection. It looks fantastic for everyday wear. The most impressive thing is the battery life. I recently ran a 50k. I charged the watch the night before the race.
Pros: The watch is very stylish and easy to use. I have used it for running and walking so far. The GPS is accurate and functional as I have grown to expect from Garmin. The sapphire bezel is very nice and durable. the thing that has impressed me so far is the battery life.
OK, so I am a Windows Phone user and we dont have many choices when it comes to wearable tech.I had the MS Band and then Band 2 for my everyday fitness tracker and smart watch. Small, light and packed with sensors you rarely see in more expensive watches.
I have only used this on a 3-day hike through the White Mountains, but am pleased enough to write a first impressions review. I did recharge the Fenix each night using an external battery so cannot comment on whether one charge holds ups over a three-day period.
Comfortable to wear even on small wrists; Logical menu tree; Easy to upload data to activity tracking websites
Must spend extra money to buy maps from Garmin; Illumination of screens is weak; but perhaps can be changed; am not sure
Because of those interface concerns, and early obstacles, we weren't initially thrilled by the HR. Slowly though, it won us over -it became obvious how tough and capable the watch is. There are very few barriers for anyone who's committed to fitness.
Handles wide range of activities with GPS; GLONASS & heartrate tracking; Waterproof & highly durable; Fantastic battery life; Useful phone app; downloadable watch customizations; Hooks for HealthKit; Strava; MyFitnessPal
No touchscreen; somewhat awkward button controls; Interface lag; Can be difficult to configure; Low visibility without sunlight or backlight; Needlessly expensive for weightlifting or casual fitness
I love it. It was a marginal decision as it catered to quite a bit more than I (at the time) needed, however it's motivated me to actually start doing some of these other things! It's become absolutely invaluable to me now, especially the GPS.
Unless you have the Fenix HR Elevate , this is the best among the Garmin watches that money can buy . The couple of drawbacks are 1. No HR sensor built into the watch , You would have to wear an external HR monitor unit. 2. Pairing with bluetooth phone is spotty .
