Be limitless. The fēnix® 8 multisport GPS smartwatch is built for serious athletes and outdoor adventurers who want to push beyond their limits. It features a bright 1.4” AMOLED display, stainless steel bezel and powerful built-in LED flashlight for after-dark visibility. A built-in speaker and mic enable you to make and take calls from your wrist when your watch is paired to your smartphone. Power up your body’s performance, endurance and resistance to injury with the latest in targeted strength training plans plus a full range of sport-specific workouts. Performance insights help manage your exertion and build stamina, while training readiness features show how much recovery time you need between workouts, based on 24/7 health and wellness monitoring of heart rate, respiration, stress, sleep and more (data presented is intended to be a close estimation of metrics tracked). Take to the trails with built-in ABC sensors and TopoActive maps that can be easily downloaded via Wi-Fi® connectivity. The dynamic round-trip routing feature helps simplify the planning of your runs or rides — letting you set your target distance and receive turn-by-turn directions that adjust to get you back to your start on schedule. Enjoy extended off-grid adventures with up to 16 days of battery life in smartwatch mode. Plus, a 40-meter dive rating and leakproof metal buttons let you reach new depths of adventure. Additional features include music storage, Garmin Pay™ contactless payments (with a supported country and payment network), smart notifications (compatible smartphone required) and more.
