Garmin now offers the Fenix 7 and its highly touted successor Fenix 9 with some of the most impressive features that will make it one of the best devices available on the market today. This includes a powerful battery with more than 200 hours of battery life, an accelerometer with 4cm travel, as well as built in heart rate tracking for athletes of all levels from serious to casual users.
Fenix offers a truly diverse range of products including sports equipment (bike, snowboard, swimmer), smartwatches, music players with touch controls, GPS devices for indoor navigation and fitness instructors, weather monitoring applications and others.
The latest Garmin Fenix version offers significant improvements over their predecessors. While not quite on par with what is offered by Apple's Apple Watch and Samsung's SmartTag Pro, this new model improves overall performance compared to the old version, the ability to capture more action shots, smoother gameplay, improved battery life and more - all while offering high quality images at an even higher resolution.
As such, this new release brings out several key features and features that promise a great experience while still retaining the core functionality of the previous versions.
Fenix's next generation battery has an impressive capacity of 200 minutes worth of battery life (not that long in light of smartphones and tablet batteries), up to a massive 1,250mAh with a typical usage time. This battery works nicely in various settings as there are both front-facing as well as rear cameras present on board with dual lens setup at the front and dual-lens design on the back. Additionally, this upgrade provides USB Type C charging, making use of the 2.0 port, which allows wireless charging. In addition to other benefits like better ergonomics in the frame as well as improved image quality and fast response times, this model also delivers top-tier battery life. Finally, the new Model 8.4G connectivity provides reliable connection and reliable data transmission to improve your operations and performance.
The biggest feature of the new edition is a new Garmin Heart Rate sensor that offers superior heart rate tracking for athletes and personal trainers alike, enabling them to accurately track your activity levels, heart rate, movement patterns, sleep patterns and calories burned. Heart rate can now be displayed in the form of graphs showing maximum heart rates and average heart rates over the course of a day for each activity you engage in. For runners, this device boasts a high sensitivity that offers accurate breathing rates without fiddling with your heart rate monitor.
This device is not limited by space and also features a USB 3.2 type-C outlet that makes it pretty easy to plug into any device of your choice thanks to Ethernet support. You can now take advantage of Bluetooth v5.1 with this newer model allowing for seamless voice control via smartphone software as well as Bluetooth 5.1 support for streaming audio. Additionally, when paired with the Garmin app for Android or iOS, a device is able to connect and streamline your daily exercises using Wi-Fi 2.0 and Wi-Fi Direct. These devices can also be used to connect to devices for connecting to Apple's CarPlay for example, so your favorite apps such as Google Maps, Pandora, Strava, Spotify, YouTube and Netflix can access and receive updates directly through Garmin's system.
The second big feature available on this update is the power button that gets rid of the physical buttons that some have come to rely on for controlling functions like volume, play, mute, and stop. Instead, the power button lets you navigate and scroll through menus as well as set alarms. As stated earlier, it takes far less effort to use this feature than its predecessor. However, there is no denying that if you do decide that this isn't enough, then there is no lack of features and capabilities that would provide a smooth ride on your trip.
Other major changes include enhanced screen Resolution (up to Full HD+), an entirely redesigned display, bigger touch controls, added memory (up to 128GB) and much longer battery (up to 500 hours).
While many of these upgrades may seem only minor, they definitely offer a fantastic user experience, especially with many people being eager to get the latest models released by both companies within months of launching, let alone start 2021 with something similar.
