Garmin Fenix 8 Smartwatch
Description
I’ve had this Garmin Fenix 8 for a few months now and honestly, it’s been a game-changer for my hiking and training routines. It came sealed in the box, originally a gift I didn’t end up using — still has the original packaging and all the extras. I noticed it was still on sale at Argos for £900, so I figured I’d part with it.The 51mm AMOLED screen is bright and easy to read, especially in the sun, and the stainless steel bezel feels solid. There’s a built-in LED flashlight, which comes in handy when you're out in the wild. I’ve used it for trail running, cycling, and even some strength training — the training readiness score helps track how I’m recovering, which is super useful.
Battery life is impressive — up to 29 days on smart mode, and 84 hours with GPS. I’ve done a few long hikes and never had to charge it mid-way. It tracks heart rate, sleep, and recovery, and I can make calls, use GPS navigation, and even dive up to 40 meters if I ever go off-grid.
I only have one collection method — bank transfer or in person. No other options. It’s not expensive, but I’m just passing it on because I’ve found a better watch for my needs now. If you’re into outdoor activities or fitness tracking, it’s worth a look. I’ve kept it clean and well-maintained — still works perfectly.
