I first experienced Garmin's solar capability on my Instinct Solar and thought the ability to keep things topped up and slowly charged with outside light to be useful.

Harness the power of the sun and explore for up to 37 days in smartwatch mode with the Garmin Fenix 7X Sapphire Solar watch. The solar-powered sapphire crystal display promises both unbeatable scratch resistance and a 300% increase in solar gains compared to the Fenix 6 so you can go even longer between charges. The Garmin Fenix 7X continues to one-up its predecessor with improved physiological training metrics, real time stamina, expanded sports profiles, HIIT workouts, Up Ahead feature, pre-installed topographic maps and an integrated flashlight feature. There’s no getting away from the fact that the 7X is a giant of a watch to wear, especially on my slender wrist. But Garmin has managed to make that weight on the X more manageable over the years and if you spend more on the titanium bezel and case, then things will get noticeable lighter on the design front. Optimise your body’s energy reserves, using heart rate variability, stress, sleep and other data to gauge when you’re ready to be active or when you may need to rest. The integrated LED flashlight is one other significant feature that the Fenix 7X Sapphire Solar has that is not present on the Epix. I have a couple of older dogs and regularly get up in the middle of the night to take them out, so find the integrated red light on the Fenix 7X to be an awesome tool that prevents disturbing others in the house while providing great light that keeps my night vision intact. The bright LED has been very useful for me a few times when trying to find things in the dark, and with my ageing 52-year old eyes, it has also served me well at illuminating restaurant menus.

We are also able to offer an exchange to a different product if required, please specify this when returning your product. After each workout, recovery time lets you know when you’ll be ready for another hard workout. It even accounts for training intensity and factors such as stress, daily activity and sleep. Alerts (time, distance, heart rate goals), courses, Garmin cycle map, race an activity, manual bike lap. Navigate your next trail with ABC sensors, including an altimeter for elevation data, barometer to monitor weather and 3-axis electronic compass. A first-of-its-kind PacePro feature helps keep you on pace with grade-adjusted guidance as you run a course.

I also have setup the light to turn on for running, walking, and trail running after sunset. We regularly take family walks after sunset, and it has been awesome to have a LED light shining to light up our path and make sure cars in the neighborhood were aware of us walking. It has also been helpful for lighting up dog waste while walking the dogs at night. GPS-based distance, time and pace. Cadence, real-time performance compared to average (after 6-20 mins). PacePro pacing strategies. Run workouts, race predictor. There’s a Pulse Ox sensor to measure blood oxygen during the night for an additional hit of sleep data, though sleeping with this watch is a challenge. It’s going to prove more useful for assessing your acclimation to altitude, though using this sensor continuously will have a noticeable impact on battery life.
