Poor quality
There are many reasons why Fenix 7 and Enduro 2 are great devices. Quality is not on the list. I am very disappointed. I own Garmin Fenix 6X Sapphire, and I tried to upgrade to both first, Garmin Fenix 7X Sapphire Solar and later, Garmin Enduro 2. I love the 6X and was ready to invest between $1000 and $1200 in upgrading to the next generation. Instead of feeling the love I had for my 6th-generation Fenix, I was thoroughly disappointed. The 7X and the Enduro 2 suffer from identical issues, poor display, and low-quality buttons. The display has four issues, possibly minor on their own, but they make things worse together. 1. Less transparent - the display is darker and harder to see. 2. More reflective - the objects reflected by the watch display are more visible compared to 6X. Again, it is harder to read the display. 3. Internal refraction - there are visible light effects created by the internal reflection plus refraction when the screen in the correct angle to reflect the light from a bright source. It is hard to explain. There is a line of different colors passing through the screen. I will attach an image. 4. The solar cell is shiny - when you have a shiny object, your pupils contract, and reading the less illuminated part of the screen gets harder. Overall that makes that watch shinier, which is a pretty effect on its own but harder to read. When I am in an artificial light environment, I have to adjust the angle of the 7X and the Enduro 2 before I can read the time. I spend half of my life under such conditions, and that is an issue for me. With 6X, I rarely have to adjust because of a bad reflection. Making the display touch-sensitive requires a sensitive layer to be added between the sapphire crystal and the MIP display. That layer is of low quality. I tried to take good photos to add to the review. However, the camera automatically compensates for the conditions, and only the refraction effect is well visible. Those issues are not that bad outside in the wilderness and do not exist at night when the backlight is used. Another issue with 7X and Enduro 2 is that the text on the screen is a black background with white letters. On 6X, the default colors are reversed, and I find it easier to read that way. It would be great if that becomes a menu option, and even better if the colors could be selected independently for day and night. Enduro 2's solar cell varied in color from green to dark blue. It felt like the solar cell was chemically or thermally treated differently in different areas, which felt cheap. This is a minor issue since the solar cell worked well. The buttons - well, lousy quality. When pressure is applied on the 6X's buttons at some point, there is a single click, and the watch performs the function. The same happens in the opposite direction. When the pressure is reduced, the buttons make a single click. That is simple perfection. The 7X was a very different experience. The 7X's buttons feel like there is sand inside. When you press a button, there are a series of minor crumbles until the button goes no more. The uncrumbling goes on the way back too. The feeling is of a very low-quality gadget. The Enduro 2 was much better than the 7X but could not match the 6X buttons. The Enduro's three left buttons could have been better, but they were acceptable. The right two buttons, however, did double clicks in both directions with a slight bending between the clicks. To put it in perspective, I remembered the sequences of clicks to get a specific functionality out of the watch. Say I want to start 10 minutes count down. On the 6X, I can do that in the morning without opening my eyes to check if I got it right. With the 7X, I always checked if the watch got me to the menu I was trying to pass through. The Enduro 2 almost always got it right on the first try, but I still had to check and make sure. I love what Garmin offers. However, it feels unacceptable that those issues exist on such expensive devices. Can you imagine an Apple watch with a bad screen or buttons barely working? I traded my 44mm Apple Watch 6 for the Garmin Fenix 6X Sapphire. The Apple Watch had superior biosensors, ECG, a better compass, and a dazzling screen, and it is the better smartwatch. Yet, I never had second thoughts about the exchange since Apple is far-far behind what Garmin offers as an outdoor sports watch. I have tested other 7X watches displayed in stores, and they all had terrible buttons, and all the displays had the same issues. The buttons issue is simply a poor quality control and probably can be resolved in later production units. I cannot guess how easy it would be to fix the display. I am writing this review as constructive criticism, hoping that Garmin will not put quality secondary to profit. Image descriptions - I am not sure in what order they will show up. Thus, I will not number them: * Two watches are showing 18:26 time - The left watch is Garmin Enduro 2, and the right watch is Garmin Fenix 6X Sapphire. This picture shows that the newer watch (Enduro 2) has a darker display. * Two watches show an Apple Card charge of $13.17 - The left watch is Garmin Fenix 6X Sapphire, and the right watch is Garmin Enduro 2. This image shows that Enduro 2 is harder to read when there is a reflection from the background. There are two issues: the reversed text and background colors and the darker display on Enduro 2. Those are the default color for Fenix 6 and Enduro 2 (Fenix 7 is the same as Enduro) and cannot be changed through settings. Additionally, Enduro's solar cell is shiny, making your pupils contract and thus even harder to read. * One watch with the sun reflected in the center of the display without diagonal lines before and after the sun's reflection - my old Garmin Fenix 6X Sapphire. * Two images with diagonal multicolored lines, one with the sun reflected and the other with the sun not directly reflected - Garmin Fenix 7X Sapphire Solar. All shots are made with iPhone 13 Pro Max and are not edited.
Enduro 2 vs Apple Ultra
Enduro 2 is the best health and fitness wearable! It’s much more than a fitness tracker. I have both the Enduro 2 and Apple Ultra. Need to reply to texts and answer phone calls on your wrist? The Ultra is great for that and basic fitness tracking. Going for living longer and healthier? Get an Enduro 2.
Thank you for your review. Jenny
Phenomenal sport watch!
I've only owned the Enduro 2 for a few weeks, but overall it's been a positive experience. I dual-wrist it with an Apple Watch (just got the Ultra) and in my mind, they are two very different products which both serve a valid purpose for me. The Garmin fitness ecosystem gives you good training advice and metrics, and the watch itself is just great. The screen is super sharp in direct sunlight, and the ability to customize your workout screens has been great. Don't know that I've seen a ton of benefit out of the solar charging, but the battery life has been stellar so far. It's been 2 weeks today since I charged it to 100%, and it's at 39% right now.
Thank you for your review. Jenny
Disappointed
Great looking watch - However after moving away from supporting COROS Vertix , GPS Adventure Limited, Vertix 2- the watch and the app on my new Enduro 2 is sloppy. I’ve made changes to metrics and they don’t hold, the functionality for indoors running has no manual override ( particularly needed for X Trainer) If am wrong/ please tell me. Maybe it’s me being a newbie to Garmin but I’m missing my COROS. It’s a lot of money for being disappointed on small things such as post a run the app doesn’t show my route. I can see the history on my watch- not the app- I don’t want to join the likes of Strava.
Thank you for your review and experience with the Enduro 2. We would like to discuss this further over email. If you would please email us at product.support@garmin.com. Thanks Jenny
Awesome watch, pricey but impressive.
Very impressive battery life with the solar charger and upgraded software too. I like the new wristband also. After opening I charged battery to 100% and programmed a personal watch face, I’ve been wearing it for about two weeks now nonstop and still has 37% battery left. New software has more body monitoring which is informative.
Best watch I’ve owned…out of 5 other Garmins
Amazing watch—the battery life is amazing! One of my favorite things is the flashlight. How freaking cool! I never thought it would make sense but in use it about 5 times a day…or I should say night. Putting my daughter down for sleep and checking on her mostly. Getting stuff out of my car or searching for stuff. Just flat out amazing. Great backup for running too! The GPS accuracy and other features are amazing as well. It is fully loaded so really not everyone will need it. But as an ultra runner I’ve found it to be immensely beneficial!
Thank you for your review. Jenny
Perfect for Every Life Adventure
I had recently purchased the Epix 2 when it came out and had loved the screen compared to the Fenix 7. When the Enduro 2 came out with every feature the Fenix had I figured I would give it a chance and worried about missing the Epix 2 screen. I do not miss it at all. The battery life is out of this world. No fear of doing an Ironman then go out hiking a couple days later without recharging. My favorite feature is the flashlight, as most of us get up before the sunrises, being able to use the watch to find my shoes in the morning and not turning on the lights and waking my wife and always having it on my writ in case is wonderful!
Thank you for your review. Jenny
Huge Upgrade
I have worn an Apple Watch for a couple of years and have been relatively happy with it. However, the functionality was always a little lacking with regards to exercise, which is my primary use. I have wanted a new Garmin watch for years, previously having a 310XT, but struggled to justify the large cost of a Fenix-type watch. After finally committing to the purchase, right after the Enduro 2 was released, I couldn't be happier. The watch does everything that I want from a smartwatch and I love the fact that I have yet to charge the watch three weeks after purchasing, when I had to charge the Apple Watch almost every day.
Thank you for your review. Jenny
Finally
I have been wanting to get a smart watch to track my mountain bike rides. However, I kept putting it off because I had a G-Shock Rangeman and a few automatic watches I like to wear. Finally, I did some research on the current market and settled on the Enduro 2. I love the use of theis watch for my rides but also use it for other exercise such as the gym or riding on in-town bike paths. It makes we want to go out and do lore rides. The sleep tracker is also so invaluable and a welcome surprise. I am a little disappointed with the HR monitor during exercise as it won't keep up with intense bouts with a quickly changing HR.
A true Ultra watch
I have had my Enduro 2 for about a month or so. I have needed to charge it once thus far. I have done a handful of ultras in that time. Longest being a 40 miler. The watch is a bit bulky but not so much that is annoying. The light feature is okay. Certainly not bright enough to be your only source of light on the trail but it is a nice safety light. The features on it are potentially overwhelming depending on what type of watch you are moving from. The ease of function is great. The setup wizard when starting the watch for the first time takes time but it makes the watch unbelievably ease to use after. Would recommend this watch to anyone that is an avid ultra runner.
Thank you for your review.
