Garmin Unveils the Next Generation of Adventure: The fēnix 8 Series

Garmin has officially launched the fēnix 8 series, a premium GPS smartwatch designed for athletes and adventurers who push their limits. Packed with new features and functionality, the fēnix 8 elevates the smartwatch experience to new heights.

A Choice for Every Explorer

The fēnix 8 offers two display options: a bright AMOLED display for stunning visuals or a solar charging display for extended battery life. The solar model provides up to 50% more solar power than its predecessor, reaching a remarkable 48 days in smartwatch mode on the 51mm version. This flexibility ensures users can choose the display that best suits their needs, whether prioritizing aesthetics or maximizing battery life for off-grid adventures. Both displays are available in various sizes, catering to different preferences.

Built for the Toughest Conditions

Durability is a key feature of the fēnix 8. All models boast leakproof metal buttons, a new sensor guard for enhanced protection, and U.S. military standard testing for thermal, shock, and water resistance. Premium materials like an optional titanium bezel and scratch-resistant sapphire lens further solidify its ability to withstand even the harshest environments.
