WHAT YOU’LL LOVE

PREMIUM MICROLED DISPLAY

Offering remarkable brightness and detail — up to 4,500 nits with over 400,000 individual LEDs — the watch’s MicroLED touchscreen is a breakthrough in display technology. It combines rich colours and high pixel densities with wide viewing angles and superior readability, even in direct sunlight.

RUGGED BY DESIGN

Built to endure, this premium design is dive-rated and features leakproof buttons, a metal sensor guard cover and bright 1.4″ MicroLED display with a scratch-resistant lens and titanium bezel — so it can go places your phone can’t. It’s tested to U.S. military standards for thermal, shock and water resistance.

SOS AND THE GARMIN RESPONSE℠ CENTRE

As our first smartwatch with inReach technology1 for satellite and LTE connectivity, fēnix® 8 Pro brings peace of mind to your adventures. Need help? Trigger an interactive SOS message for emergency support from the 24/7-staffed Garmin Response coordination centre.

SATELLITE MESSAGING

When you’re venturing into off-grid locations, including up to 50 miles offshore, the watch’s inReach technology allows you to send messages and get location check-ins — once you establish a satellite link — with no phone connection required.

LTE CONNECTIVITY

Going for a run? Taking a swim? Leave your phone behind, and use your watch’s LTE connection1 to exchange messages and make voice calls — plus let friends follow along with LiveTrack™ location sharing and location check-ins with the on-device Garmin messenger™ app. Even get access to weather conditions and forecasts.

ENHANCED MAP NAVIGATION

Navigate your adventures by using preloaded TopoActive maps with relief shading — plus built-in maps for golf courses and ski resorts around the world. A dynamic round-trip routing feature offers suggested routes to bring you back to your starting point on time.

STAY IN CONTACT WITH INREACH TECHNOLOGY

 

PHONE-FREE VOICE CALLS

When you have an LTE connection, the Messenger Calls app on your watch lets you initiate and receive voice calls with other Garmin Messenger app users — without needing to carry your smartphone.

MESSAGING ON THE GO

Through satellite or LTE connection, messages can be shared with other Garmin Messenger app users directly from your watch. The app will automatically sync with your contacts when your watch is paired with your smartphone.

NO NEED TO SWITCH PROVIDERS

You’ll activate your subscription through Garmin, not your cellular provider, so access to inReach services is a seamless connection through your watch.

SAVE POWER

fēnix® 8 Pro uses an LTE network, which is designed to use less power and minimises battery drain on your watch to keep your adventures going longer and stronger.

LIVETRACK FOLLOWING

LTE network connectivity1 lets friends follow your adventures with LiveTrack location sharing via the on-device Garmin Messenger app. The app also lets you alert your friends that you have started a LiveTrack sequence, in case they want to follow or reach you during your activity.

WEATHER FORECASTS

Access to current weather conditions and multiday forecasts are available via LTE to help you stay prepared for what’s ahead on your route.

LOCATION CHECK-INS

Over satellite or LTE, user-initiated location updates can be sent to family and friends, keeping them apprised of your progress on trips and adventures.
