Share on FacebookShare on Whatsapp

Garmin has launched the fēnix 8 Series, its next-gen premium multisport GPS smartwatches that offer either a bright AMOLED display or solar charging display for even greater battery life. Introducing advanced strength training features, dive capabilities, an internal speaker and mic and more, fēnix 8 Series is designed for anyone who wants to push beyond their limits.

And with incredible battery life, it’s easy to explore more; the 51mm AMOLED model offers up to 29 days of battery life in smartwatch mode, while the 51mm solar model with an always-on display offers up to 48 days.

“For years, the fēnix line has been celebrated for its premium features, materials and design. And now, we’re thrilled to introduce our most capable fēnix yet. This latest lineup not only adds new design details, sport-specific training enhancements and convenient communication tools, it also allows users to choose between a beautiful AMOLED display or solar charging for extra-long battery life.

If you’re looking for a sophisticated smartwatch that can hold you accountable and help you reach your health and wellness goals, look no further than fēnix 8.” — Mr. Scoppen Lin, Assistant General Manager, Garmin Asia.

Something For Everyone

AMOLED or solar: Choose between a bright AMOLED display or an always-on display with a solar charging lens that harnesses the power of the sun even better, resulting in fēnix 8 – 51mm providing 50% more solar power than its predecessor. Both models also feature refreshed graphics. The AMOLED option is available in three sizes – 43mm, 47mm or 51mm – while the solar charging option is available in 47mm or 51mm.

Rugged design: All models feature leakproof metal buttons, a new sensor guard to help protect essential sensors and have been tested to U.S. military standards for thermal, shock and water resistance. And premium materials like an optional titanium bezel and optional scratch-resistant sapphire lens are built to endure, even in the harshest of conditions.

Built-in speaker and microphone: Make and take phone calls from the watch when paired with a compatible smartphone. Certain voice commands like “start a strength training activity”, “set a timer for 5 minutes”, “save waypoint” and more can be activated right from the watch—no phone connection is required.

Built-in LED flashlight: Quickly control the flashlight’s brightness right from the display. Variable intensities, a red light and strobe mode can help provide greater awareness in dark environments—like during a training run, searching for a lost toy under the couch, reading a menu at a dimly-lit restaurant and more.

Advanced strength training: Elevate performance with targeted, 4-6-week strength training plans to help meet personal goals, plus sport-specific workouts for athletes of all types, including trail runners, surfers, skiers and more.

Dive capabilities: Dive in with a 40-metre dive-rated case, leakproof metal buttons and support for scuba and apnea dive activities.

Garmin Messenger app: Communicate with family and friends via two-way text messaging right from the watch.

Advanced mapping and navigation: View terrain contours on TopoActive maps and access preloaded maps for thousands of golf courses and ski resorts around the world. A new map interface allows users to easily customise map layers to get the most out of their navigation. While exploring, enter a distance on the watch and receive suggested routes to stay on track and on time with dynamic round-trip routing.

Perform At Your Best

No matter the adventure, fēnix 8 Series can help athletes of all types push beyond their limits. Every morning, a training readiness score can help determine if it’s a good day to go hard or take it easy, while advanced training metrics like endurance score, hill score, VO2 max, training status and more can help gauge overall performance.

During a training session, PacePro provides GPS-based pace guidance for selected courses or distances while grade-adjusted pace provides an equivalent running pace at the same effort on flat ground or when ascending. Meanwhile, ClimbPro displays real-time information on current and upcoming climbs.

To prepare for the next big race, athletes can view personalised daily suggested workouts that adapt after every run or ride, use free Garmin Coach training plans and reference the race widget for training tips, personalised daily suggested workouts and more.

Find Your Passion

New activities like apnea and scuba diving join dozens of preloaded activities – including running, whitewater rafting, golfing and pickleball, plus team sports like soccer, football and more – to help users stay active. Whether working out at a gym or at home, fēnix 8 Series tracks activities like strength, cardio, yoga and HIIT. Users can also follow animated cardio, strength, yoga and pilates workouts right on their watch screen. Explorers can also keep track of their adventures with insights for snowboarding, XC skiing, surfing, mountain biking and more. While out skiing, users can now track how much time they spend on different difficulties throughout the day at thousands of resorts worldwide.

Explore On (Or Off) The Beaten Path

Ready for any adventure, fēnix 8 Series is packed with premium mapping features to help explorers stay on track. Available on fēnix 8 sapphire models, preloaded TopoActive maps provide multi-continent mapping from around the world. An Outdoor Maps+ subscription provides explorers with premium mapping content, like satellite imagery and enhanced topographic maps right on the watch. Meanwhile, SatIQ and multi-band GPS help provide superior positioning accuracy in challenging environments—all while optimising battery life. Before heading out, adventurers can create or find existing courses in Garmin Connect and seamlessly sync them to their watch to get turn-by-turn directions. While out exploring, users can navigate trails with the NextFork Map Guide or the built-in altimeter, barometer and 3-axis electronic compass.

Track Your Health Stats

Loaded with 24/7 health monitoring features, fēnix 8 Series includes wrist-based Pulse Ox, Body Battery energy monitoring, jet lag adviser, advanced sleep monitoring, nap detection and more. Upon waking, users can receive a morning report that provides a customised look at last night’s sleep, their training outlook and Heart Rate Variability (HRV) Status.

Stay Connected

While on the go, fēnix 8 Series lets users: share saved locations, courses and workouts with others who have a compatible Garmin device using Garmin Share; receive smart notifications; download songs from Spotify, Deezer or Amazon Music (premium subscription required) for phone-free listening; workout with peace of mind with incident detection, assistance and LiveTrack and more.

The fēnix 8 Series offers a bright AMOLED display or solar charging for even greater battery life. The AMOLED option is available in three sizes – 43mm, 47mm and 51mm – while the solar charging option is available in 4mm or 51mm. Suggested retail prices start at RM5,199.

Available on Garmin e-store, Shopee, Lazada, AECO e-store, Garmin Brand Stores, and all authorised retailers.
