    New fenix user here. Video was very helpful for me. Really different from the Vivoactive 3. Waiting for my replacement now. First one had a double click start/stop button that was getting bad by the end of the 8th day with it. Still trying to figure out Hot Keys. Is it a long press like 3 - 5 seconds to activate?

    Glad you found the video to be helpful. For the hotkeys it's about 2 seconds of holding for it to activate. It's an awesome feature. The Fenix 6 is very different from the VA3, you're going to really like it! Thanks for watching!

    Hey thanks for putting up this video, the one thing I wanted is to have wrist activation to show the display. I did exactly what you did to turn on the gestures but with no luck. It still will not activate the led light with wrist motion . Any ideas??? Thanks again.
