As I use and write my Garmin Fenix 6 review, I thought it would be an excellent opportunity to highlight some of the features, as well as various tips and tricks to make the most out of your new £600+ watch. For existing Garmin users, a lot of these will be obvious, but I hope…
Now that Garmin has updated all its watches for the year, you may be wondering which is the best buy and how models are different. In particular, the pricing and features of the Vivoactive 4 and Forerunner 245 are quite close and if you are looking for an upgrade, or this is your first Garmin…
All those leaks I wasn’t too sure about, were pretty much accurate. Today Garmin launched a new watch to their line-up, the Garmin Venu. They probably could have called it a Vivoactive 4 Pro or something, as technically it is the same watch, but different display. I think it is a sensible move from Garmin,…
Garmin has just released a YouTube video announcing the Fenix 6 series and confirming everything that has been reported previously. The video doesn’t reveal too much but it does confirm four features that have been heavily leaked in the past few weeks. What’s new with the Garmin Fenix 6? Split product line into two portions:…
The Garmin Fenix 6 is now official, and available to order from Amazon, Garmin and other retailers. Amazon states the launch date as the 30th of August, and we will see when they actually ship it. Garmin Fenix 6 Product Listing details (verbatim) The fēnix® 6 multisport GPS watch brings cutting-edge design and performance to…
IFA this year is hotting up for wearables and fitness tracking. There have been a lot of leaks for several Garmin watches, it is looking increasingly likely we will see the Garmin Fenix 6, then there is also the possibility of a new range called the Venu. So what exciting things are we looking forward…
One of the many bits of information released about the Garmin Fenix 6. Again, nothing new is being revealed here, but more clarification of both how the new Fenix 6 series will look and the reported features. [Update 25/08/2019] An eCommerce site in Uruguay has listed the fēnix 6 Pro for $804 with a launch…
[Update 23rd of August 2019] Detailed product renders for the 6, 6S and 6X added. [Update 25/08/2019] An eCommerce site in Uruguay has listed the fēnix 6 Pro for $804 with a launch date of September 6th 2019. Perhaps not the most trustworthy of sources, it could be an SEO tactic, but the 6th is…
It looks like the wearables hall will be buzzing with activity at IFA this year based the rumours and leaks that have been revealed recently. The Misfit Vapor X is the only confirmed watch, and they are owned by the Fossil Group so it should be at the show this year. Most companies will be…
Another day, another Garmin leak. This time from serial leaker Roland Quandt who is generally regarded as very reliable. This leak backs previous information the Vivoactive 4 will arrive at IFA. He leaks also do not mention the Fenix 6, which backs my suspicion that the flagship device will not be launching at the end…
Following on from the previous leaks of the Garmin Fenix 6, and the Garmin Vivoactive 4, there was also some details of a new Vivomove. The original YouTube video that detailed all the new watches was from a questionable source, and I had previously advised taking the rumour with a big pinch of salt. Since…
Garmin may be the biggest brand in the fitness industry with perhaps the most feature-rich devices, but one area they have fallen behind nearly every company is wirst HR for swimming. They have finally pulled their finger out and have launched heart rate tracking during swimming activities. Unfortunately, at the moment, it is only available…
