Thanks for your help yesterday! I decided to go with the Fenix 6 pro

Really liked your review. Very informative! Quick question on the fenix. Is the size and weight of it comfortable enough for every day wear?

I found this review absolutely perfect, thank you. Appreciate it. The actual practical elements, such as how clear the display is (in the box etc), and how the battery life is in everyday use has been very useful. I totally agree with your comment about chest straps: they are far more accurate!

The Fenix 6 pro solar? Or non solar?

I have an original Instinct, just over a year old, and having a discussion with Garmin as battery life has dwindled to only 12 hours. Among other things, I use the watch for altitude while flying paramotor, which means I can't push buttons to activate the backlight. The screen on the Instinct has excellent visibility without the backlight, and I have been very happy with its features. However, as I may be replacing it, I have looked at the Fenix 6 Pro, mainly because of the mapping feature. I am past doing big exercise routines, hikes etc, so don't really need all those, but do use sleep monitoring, body battery, and on many occasions it would be nice to have the map rather than do Google map on the phone. I am concerned about the screen readability on the Fenix, without backlight, and can not tell on your videos whether the wrist movement you are doing to show the screens is activating the backlight (apart from the one where you state "no backlight on Fenix'. Could you clarify , and it would be worth showing the screens without backlight. I notice most youtubers are constantly clicking the buttons to show backlight while comparing watches, not helpful

@fitgearhunter

Жыл бұрын

Hey! Yes it definitely has a wrist gesture driven backlight illumination. And the resolution is two or three times better than the instinct, so all legibility increases at least twofold. it really should consider the new 955 if you are looking at the F6. It has newer sensors and newer functions and features, and will last a lot longer from a feature-set than going with the F6

Hey dude! This is exactly the comparative discussion I was looking for. Though this video is a year old now, it's still incredibly relevant. Let me divulge a little my situation, would love to hear your thoughts. I'm not an athlete or anything close, in fact i'm forced to sit on my ass most of the day for work, but I do enjoy my sports, in particular hiking, long walks around town, cycling, occasional swimming, and football. I've always used a fitbit charge 2, which was great whilst it lasted though it now needs a replacement. In my research i've discovered garmin watches, and for my budget around £150-250, I instantly saw the Instinct 2 solar as a brilliant option, particularly the robust battery. As mentioned before i'm no athlete, so I'm unlikely to see the minute differences in the accuracy of the sensors, though I do enjoy reading into the data and allowing that to encourage and inform my workouts and sports. Also enjoy the sleep trackign data! Now i've seen the Fenix 6 pro is roughly around the same price, i was a little concerned as its almost 4 years old. Though in your video you summarised that the Fenix 6 pro is the better option, but in the comments it seems you later veered towards the instinct 2? What are your thoughts for someone who is just trying to get into a more healthy lifestyle and isn't too obsessed with the most accurate data but just needs the general metrics and coaching tools that garmin offers? Starting to think a fenix 6 is the right option...particularly as I enjoy hiking, and i'm not a skilled navigator, so the mapping functions and ability to load in GPX seems great, though even the instinct 2 provide a breadcrumb trail. Are there any other options in the garmin lineup i should be looking into? My friend is suggesting the venu 2 is not bad, but to me it feels like it would break easily with one tumble.

Excellent review! I have the Instinct 1 and recently upgraded to the Fenix 6 Pro. The everyday use aspect (screen size, speed, build quality) really makes a big difference. I’ve noticed the Fenix 6 Pro pricing fluctuating over the past few weeks. With some patience and searching, you can sometimes find pricing on manufacturer refurbished options that include 2 year warranties for sub-$430. At the current pricing levels, it seems like a no-brainer over the Instinct 2 for many use cases.

Hi mate and to anyone else who may know that would be able to respond to my question 👋🏻 . It's mentioned in the video that the elevate 3.0 on the Fenix 6 pro does not lose any accuracy with regard to any of the health and wellness features . Would this also apply to HR monitoring being reasonably close to accurate as part of those metrics for day to day general use , in order to keep a tab on my heart rate '? I currently have the instinct 2 standard and I like it and find it good , but I'm also fond of the Fenix 6 pro and it's at the same price currently and I was considering taking it back and swapping it to the Fenix 6 pro whilst in return time frame . I find the instinct, whilst good , a bit basic feeling and I like the idea of Spotify , garmin pay and mapping for my occasional hikes .So , Is the Fenix 6 pro , regarding health and wellness tracking, including reasonable HR monitoring accuracy , for general day to day use and occasional hiking trips , represent a good purchase still'? Any insight appreciated . Really appreciated your review between these two. Think I'm leaning towards th Fenix 6 pro from your conclusion , but just wanted to understand if the HR monitoring mentioned at 75%accuracy , is sufficient to gain clarity on HR stats for general day to day use . If it helps with HR accuracy, me main usage for the watch is mostly day to day, walking and occasional hikes. Thank you . Regards. 🕊️🙏

Great question! In simple terms you probably have to look at the instinct 2, but if you were able to get a Fenix series with sapphire glass that would hold up well. but since the instinct 2 is a newer release and will get more updates and have more physiological metrics, I would have to say that might be the better option for you even if the review says it’s uncertain. How much are you looking to spend? You definitely have to get sapphire glass on whatever device you get. If you can afford the Fenix 7 sapphire that would surely be fantastic, but that’s a bigger price tag all around. Final recommendation would just be to get the Fenix 6 with sapphire glass model and make sure you get a chest strap or heart rate connector for workouts. You’re going to get the majority of everything you need for training and recovery, and it will be a much better looking watch and even more bulletproof than the instinct 2

Haha I do prefer the Fenix/Enduro 2 Line for sure! Enduro 2 is now my favorite

I wanted to see a comparison of these two watches, and here I was surprised by the words of support for Ukraine. I am from Poland and it is very important to us. Thank you!

So sorry for delay and so glad you commented. Yes yes yes - I am appalled by the terror Ukraine is experiencing. Poland has been such a huge support for them - keep showing the love - you have no idea how far it goes.

Thank you for this video and for supporting of Ukraine!
