Our take on the Garmin Fenix 8 51mm AMOLED Smartwatch

The Fenix 8 is Garmin's flagship multisport watch, here in the largest 51mm case with a bright AMOLED display and a sapphire lens. It adds a built-in speaker and microphone for phone calls and voice commands, a dive-rated 40m water resistance, and a flashlight on the case edge. Battery life runs up to about four weeks in smartwatch mode, far longer than an Apple Watch Ultra or Galaxy Watch, though the 51mm titanium case is heavy and large on slim wrists. It suits serious athletes, hikers and divers who want maps and long battery life and will accept the size and price.

Questions and answers

Is the Fenix 8 worth it over the Fenix 7?
The Fenix 8 adds the AMOLED screen, speaker and microphone for calls, a dive rating and a flashlight. If you mostly run and hike and don't need calls or diving, a Fenix 7 still covers the basics.
How long does the battery last?
Garmin rates it at up to about four weeks in smartwatch mode. Heavy GPS use, always-on display and music playback cut that to days, and solar charging only slows the drain.
Can I take it diving?
Yes. It is rated to 40m and has dive modes, which is deeper than most multisport watches. Check that your dive computer needs are met before relying on it as a primary gauge.
Does it work with iPhone and Android?
Yes, it pairs with both. Calls and notifications work on either, but some reply and app features are more limited on iOS.
Is the 51mm version too big?
It is the largest Fenix 8 case and noticeably heavy. If you have slim wrists or wear a watch to sleep, the 43mm or 47mm sizes fit better.
What is in the box?
The watch with a silicone band and a charging cable. No spare band or wall adapter is included.
Where is the Garmin Fenix 8 51mm AMOLED Smartwatch cheapest?
At Bass Pro Shops, for $599.99, 33% off, as of our latest check.
