Multisport GPS watch with new communication options
The Garmin Fenix 8 Pro is a highly durable smartwatch with a long battery life and versatile sports and outdoor use. It also offers continuous monitoring of a wide range of health data, an elegant design, a rich selection of smart features, and compatibility with both iOS and Android smartphones. The Garmin Fenix 8 Pro is fitted with a durable titanium bezel and a very bright AMOLED display with vivid colours and high resolution. The smartwatch's display is protected by sapphire glass. One of the main advantages of the Fenix 8 Pro model is its support PRO LTE and satellite connectivity with integrated inReach technology and Garmin Response. On a full charge, the smartwatch battery lasts up to 15 days.
The Garmin Fenix 8 Pro is the first smartwatch with built-in inReach technology, which gives you peace of mind on your travels via LTE and satellite connectivity. If you need help, simply initiate SOS communication for emergency support from the 24/7 Garmin Response coordination rescue centre. With a Garmin smartwatch, you can even venture off-grid up to 80 kilometres from the coast. inReach technology lets you send messages and location information as soon as you establish a satellite connection—no need to connect the Garmin Fenix 8 Pro watch to your phone. Thanks to LTE connectivity, you can leave your phone at home during your activities and still send/receive messages or calls. You can also share your LiveTrack™ location with your family or friends. If the watch detects an incident during selected activities, it will send a message with your current location via your paired smartphone. You can also trigger the function manually in case of danger.
The Garmin Fenix 8 Pro combines a premium design with a highly durable construction and a titanium bezel. The 1.4-inch AMOLED display is protected by sapphire glass, which is highly resistant to scratches. The smartwatch has water-resistant buttons and metal sensor protection. The Garmin Fenix 8 Pro is also suitable for diving and meets US military standards for resistance to temperature, shock and water. The high-capacity battery ensures up to 15 days of use in smartwatch mode.
The Garmin Fenix 8 Pro watch pairs easily with both Android and iOS phones. The built-in microphone and speaker make it easy to make Bluetooth calls from a paired mobile phone. If your watch is connected to an LTE network, you can even make calls without connecting to a smartphone. Of course, it also displays notifications from apps on your smartphone. You will also have a built-in music player with support for offline listening from services like Spotify or Deezer (a subscription may be required). Via Garmin Pay, you can add a digital copy of your regular payment card to the Fenix 8 Pro watch (if your card supports the feature) and then use the watch for contactless payments.
High durability and long battery life make the watch ideal for outdoor activities. For these purposes, the Garmin Fenix 8 Pro watch is equipped with electromagnetic compass sensors with automatic tilt correction, a barometric pressure sensor, an altimeter, and a depth gauge. You can plan routes directly on the watch or in the Garmin Connect mobile app. Precise position calculation is provided by a satellite receiver with support for GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO satellite systems and a multi-channel Multiband GPS receiver. Optimal satellite reception is ensured by SatIQ technology, which can automatically switch between multiple satellite signal reception modes to optimise accuracy and save energy.
The sports features are among the main reasons to choose a watch from the Garmin Fenix series. The watch uses a system of sports profiles dedicated to individual sports activities. Each sports profile has its own settings and specific functions for that type of sport. The watch is usable for most sports activities, both indoor and outdoor. The activities where the watch is most commonly used include: walking, running, cycling, swimming, skiing, triathlon, rowing, strength training, yoga, golf, and many other sports. A new feature of the Fenix 8 Pro model is the dive computer function for recreational freediving and scuba diving to a depth of 40 metres. The watch is now fitted with inductive buttons with haptic feedback and increased water resistance. Even underwater, the Garmin Fenix 8 Pro can be fully controlled using the buttons without fear of damage.
Garmin watches can continuously measure and record health and activity data day and night. This primarily includes values for heart rate, heart rate variability, blood oxygen level, breathing rate, daily step count, floors climbed, and minutes of intense activity. From the measured data, the watch derives other functions and metrics, such as Body Battery, Stress Score, Heart Rate Variability Status, Temperature and Altitude Acclimatisation Status, and more. The group of health monitoring functions also includes features for measuring sleep duration and quality. In addition to duration and Sleep Score, the Garmin Fenix 8 Pro watch also measures individual sleep stages and short naps, and provides recommendations for achieving better sleep and recovery.
