The Foretrex 801 is a wrist-mounted GPS navigator built for field use rather than fitness tracking. It pairs a monochrome screen readable in daylight and with night vision gear with multi-band GNSS, a 3-axis compass and a barometric altimeter. Military-tested for sand, dust and shock and rated water-resistant to 1 m for 30 minutes, it runs up to 100 hours in navigation mode or 1000 hours in expedition mode on AAA batteries. Tactical extras like stealth mode, a kill switch and jumpmaster mode set it apart from consumer handhelds, and it suits hikers, hunters, soldiers and skydivers more than runners who want maps and touchscreens.

Owners treat the Foretrex 801 as a dependable field tool: accurate positioning, long battery life on AAA cells and a screen that works in bright light and with night vision. Complaints center on the basic display and the lack of mapping compared with larger handhelds.
