Perhaps an unnecessary upgrade – Garmin products are solid and the analytics software is second to none. This is supposedly an upgrade to Fenix 6 and it is, in some areas. The reflective pixel screen is now dimmer than fenix 6 which is a very strange 'upgrade'. Fenix 6 had better indoor readability. I found it very hard to get used to the screen. It is not built for the indoors. I eventually gave up and went back to my instinct. Battery life is OK. Though advertised to run 21 days on battery (no solar exposure), I don't think it lasts that long. Steps, heart rate tracking is mostly accurate.

Purchased in at JB Hi-Fi for $1,079.
