Color: 6X Sapphire - Dark Gray with Black Band
Style: 6X Sapphire
Pattern Name: Watch
Changed my rating from 4 to 5 stars because I have been able to make actionable tweaks on my daily life based on the new information collected by the F6x during activities and sleeping. Plus, the GPS gets a lock super fast when outside. It is truly a great watch and while I do miss some things from the F3 HR, they are minor and the F6x is an all around improvement from the older model. Coming from a Fenix 3 HR, was hoping the Fenix to Fenix upgrade/migration process would be super smooth. Like custom activities would just carry over or even the default watch face would be the same. Neither are true and while I figured out how to create a custom activity, within Connect it does not list the custom name like it did with the F3. There are no watch faces that are similar to the simple but perfect digital face of the F3 HR. My biggest issue with the F6x default digital face is the way the minutes are not inline with the hour. Yet, the digital face for the F6 Solar looks exactly what is expected, minus the sun gauge in the middle. My ask of Garmin is to make the F6x Solar default digital (with the hours and minutes inline and the other data fields around it) face shown available to other F6x users, of course without the solar. Let's move onto appearance and the Fenix 3 HR has a matte grey bezel that can be worn with anything (business suits to shorts) while the F6x Sapphire grey bezel is quite shiny for almost a blued finish... yuk. The shipping watch band of the F6x sapphire has notches while the older style band has a nicer feel, thankfully was able to quickly swap. If you are purchasing for the pulse ox (assuming the battery is at 100%) turning it on will take the battery from 21 to 15 days. Changing the other pulse ox setting to continuous will further tax the battery from 15 to 10 days. Not a fan of the F6 charging cable and strongly prefer the old style F3 cradle due to cable length and the new cable places the watch in an awkward angle that feels like it will break off or weaken the connection. Compared to my F3, doing the same cardio activity (MMA) with the same HRM strap used with the F3 HR, the F6x is reading about 50-80 more calories burned. Not sure if the F6x is accounting for temperature (the gym is always same temp) and other biometrics including pulse ox. Did my usual run (without HRM) in identical conditions and there was a 38 calorie reduction from F3 to F6. Based on feedback from other 6x users, tested the heart rate against Precor gym equipment and it was exactly the same and across all ranges. The watch screen is extremely clear and readable. During the same MMA activity, because of the screen size and clarity, can see HR from a distance. It is also less bulky on my wrist versus the F3 HR, but would prefer to have a larger battery versus reduced size. The F6x alarm clock vibration strength and tones wake me up much better than the F3. Did not purchase the solar model due to the purplish tint on the face and concern that it was not as scratch/break resistant compared to the Sapphire models as my F3 HR Sapphire never had any scratches or cracks during 3+ years of continuous use. Hoping Garmin reads these comments and makes improvements. The F3 HR was life changing for me back in March 2016, but with this F6x Sapphire in Carbon Grey with black band, want to see the F6x Sapphire in Black in person that comes with the leather strap (assuming the black is a matte finish) for cosmetic reasons. To build on the life changing comment, the ability to track sleep is not fully appreciated. Attached two screenshots of my sleep while using the 6x. Very accurate (even with pulse ox) and something the Apple Watch CANNOT do, even with the gen 5. Any physical exertion must have recovery time. After having this watch for more than two weeks now (since Sept 5th), my only gripes with it is the shiny carbon grey (to me its light grey) bezel and the default digital face need Garmin's attention from an otherwise great product. Update: Originally had issues with iOS 13.0 with Connect locking up and not snycing, but since 13.1 it corrected both. Have since updated my phone to iOS 13.1.2 (9/30/19), Garmin 6x firmware 4.10 update, and the latest version of Connect 4.23.2. Have been using the 6x completely problem free.

Update 2/11/2021: I was able to repurchase this watch at a very, very reasonable price - all things considered. Given that I got it for under $500 I must say it's incredibly impressive, even without a great HR sensor. I have grown used to using my HR strap for workouts at this point and the training suggestions this watch makes based on that information is truly amazing. I am a strength and conditioning coach and I am extremely impressed that under the calendar widget they added a new feature of recommended workouts for running and cycling for each day based on previous workouts and the HR data. I'd say it's spot on with how I'm feeling. It's very, VERY good. The battery life is still excellent. I get about 11 days with 1hr of training each day. I do not sleep with it on. I love it at this point and am pleased that I found it at a lesser price. It's worth it. 4 stars for the mediocre HR sensor and high price. UPDATE: 5/11/2020: So, I have given up on this watches HR tracking ability. This one issue is significant and it really is an inconvenience to always have to look for and use a chest strap. I have extensively, over the course of 8 months tested and re-tested this device in hopes that the HR accuracy would improve with time. It really hasn't. In short, so you don't have to read everything else I posted her, it straight up sucks when compared to the apple watch 4 or 5. This watch cannot accurately display your HR when ascending hills on a walk. On a hike, they finally got something to register. Up until the last update, it would never crack 89bpm. Now, if you're working hard ascending a hill, it will eventually catch up and display a HR that is accurate but the lag time to get there is insanely long. Usually 30 seconds or more so you'll be done with a hill and on flat ground before it catches up to, and displays it correctly. It will not measure HR correctly on bike rides on anything but flat, smooth terrain. It only works when steady state running or steady state bike riding indoors. All of the training effects/suggestions are based on HR data. This does not record HR data accurately or at all in most cases so that stuff is useless in practice. I would not buy this. It is way to expensive. You could buy it and use a chest strap for all activities which is up to you to decide if spending this much and having to use that is reasonable. The apple watch 4 or 5 are still far superior. I thought I'd use the maps feature more and I do find it incredibly useful, but because I train the way I do, having solid HR tracking is more important to me than the map features which I could probably find a solution for via my phone. I train everyday with lifting, running, cycling, swimming or some variation of HIIT training. Keep track of the HR data is a great way to see how my fitness is progressing. Don't waste your money on this unless you don't care about HR data. Other than that it's dope, but it does not work as advertised in a hugely important way. I can't overstate that enough. This is supposed to be a fitness tracker, after all. TL;DR as of 2/10/20 I would not recommend buying this watch. There has been a persistent issue with the HR monitor either lagging behind excessively or not properly reflecting your HR during several activties including hiking, stair workouts and others. Garmin knows of this issue but hasn't fixed it and I've been waiting months for that to occur. I am returning this watch and waiting for a fix at which point I will repurchase it or waiting for the 7. I'm an Ironman triathlete and outdoorsman. I've been seeking a fitness tracking watch for the past year to replace my Apple Watch Series 4 since it is inadequate is some areas: in particular, battery life and the lack of an always on display. This review has been ongoing and I keep updating it with more experiences. I am definitely disappointed with a few very specific and important features. I will elaborate in an update section. I had previously tried three Fenix 5x models. All 3 had an optical HR sensor that was atrocious and I thought it could be due to a faulty unit, but it's just their inherent design. You can google this independently and conclude the same. The sensor was always delayed during cycling workouts and failed to reflect my heart rate as it dropped when I rested from intervals. The Fenix 6 is a substantial upgrade in every category compared to the 5X. However, my focus of this review is on the heart rate accuracy and if it is better than the 5x. I tried this unit out because Garmin redesigned the sensor for the new Fenix 6 models. I can tell you from personal experience that it is better at locking into a HR when compared to the 5X. It is still delayed when compared to the apple watch series 4 and 5 or a wahoo tickr chest strap. It usually takes about 10 seconds after a 5-10 minute warm up to properly lock onto a HR. All is good once it locks in and it’s usually only 2-10 seconds behind a chest strap and at most, 2-3 beats off from the chest strap but it actually matches it most of the time. It's excellent at steady state activity like longer runs and indoor cycling on a trainer but that seems to be about it. The biggest problem that persists which was present in the 5x, is the inability for this device to accurately display your heart rate as it ascends or descends if you quickly change intensity, or come to a stop to rest from any type of interval workout - or any workout for that matter. Especially outdoor cycling because of the vibration in the road. In other words, if say, you were to do a quarter mile hill sprint on a bike, there is never a time when I stopped that the watch was able to reflect the descending heart rate properly. It would usually hit 165 then, it would slowly drop and get stuck at 110-120bpm, when in reality compared to the chest strap or apple watch series 4, my heart rate was at 75-90bpm or less. I sometimes would wait up to seven minutes before the watch would reflect the lower heart rate. This renders any short duration activity useless. It distorts the displayed training effects (if the workout was primarily aerobic or anerobic once you hit stop) and turns your workouts and post workout training effects that are displayed into garbage because your average heart rates are entirely thrown off usually 20-30 beats too high. This renders the device useless for anyone who weighs interval training heart rate data heavily in their training program. Unless you spend another 75-100 for an external strap which should not be necessary at this price point. I want to make this very clear: the Apple watch 3 and beyond have been scientifically researched in a few medical journals and have been shown to be the most accurate wrist based optical heart rate sensors when compared to Garmin, fitbit and one other brand I cannot recall. This is extremely troubling to me because Garmin advertises itself as being the gold standard for fitness enthusiasts. This is a major shortcoming that cannot be overlooked in a nearly one thousand dollar time piece geared to help you train more efficiently. For that reason, and that reason alone, I would not recommend it. Garmin's main competitor in this space (Apple) can make a product that yields accurate data for 50% the cost. However, I will say that the watch has many other features that are outstanding including its display which is remarkably easy to see in the light and 60hrs of GPS tracking for long overnight backpacking trips or endurance races/workouts. Based on my current experiences, the navigation ability is good and its usually about 50 feet off from my target destination which is impressive. It's tough to swallow buying a watch this expensive and it not being at least as good as a year or older Apple watch heart rate sensor. It just isn't. It is terrible for elliptical and hiking workouts and takes 5-10 minutes to lock in and usually fails to at all because of the arm movement, it is just terrible during hikes. I think it is because when you select the hike activity, some power saving features are occurring in the background which affect HR. I tested this by doing hill runs where my HR would hit 140-150bpm. The watch never showed above 120bpm. It works best when on a stationary bike or jogging. It's proven to be useless in every other category. This was never an issue with my series 4 apple watch. Garmin engineers, you guys have got to step it up with the HR tech or HR algorithms in the software because everything else is built on the heart rate results you collect. I'd rather have less features in this watch and have the ones you do have be on point over anything extra. ESPECIALLY HR accuracy. As I said, you can spend another hundred dollars and get their triathlon heart rate strap but oh my, you're now spending over a thousand dollars to make up for a fault in the product which at this point, shouldn't exist to this extent. A little faltering is bound to happen with PPG technology, but this problem existed in the 5x and continues to exist in the 6. I would not recommend this product if you want it for accurate heart rate data to help you train more efficiently unless you only do steady state activity. In reality, it is not for the hardcore HIIT athlete and even outside of those hardcore training sessions, it can't hold its own against the Apple Watch 4 or 5. Truly disappointing. UPDATE 10/22/19: I wanted to be fair here and say that I did end up returning this watch, but the other features of it are so good, that I eventually sold my Apple Watch 4 and bought another 6x saphire pre-owned. I’d say even though the HR sensor is bad for most workouts, it’s quite good at steady state stuff like running and indoor cycling on a trainer. The HR sensor is a little faster than the 5x plus was, but that's not saying much. The wrist band is better than the 5x but too heavy. Getting the perfect fit is better than on the 5x plus but it's a bit annoying. It’s either too loose and wobbles when hammering during a fast run or tight as hell. So look out for fabric sport nylon band loops when they come out. I saved about $260 by buying it preowned. If you can get the Saphire 6x pro model for $650-$700 or less I would say, it COULD be worth it. Spending that much still hurts BUT the display is truly amazing coming from an Apple Watch. No, it’s not a beautiful high res OLED but it’s way more functional and practical. As are the buttons. The touch screen on the Apple watch sucks so much for swimming, and hikes, or camping trips when you have your gloves on. There's also no more wrist flicking at 20mph bike rides so if you ride, way safer than the series 4 apple watch. Plank sets are easier too. or anything really, I was surprised by how many times I was doing that flick to turn on the apple watch screen. Looking back on it, it was so dumb and slowed me down every time. The Fenix 6 watch is more than capable of weeks of usage. I workout every day for 45-60 minutes: running, lifting, cycling, swimming or hiking, and can go two weeks without charging this thing with pulse Ox off and only measuring it at night when I sleep. It looks way cooler than other GPS watches (not my main priority, but worth mentioning because style is a factor.) it’s extremely durable with the saphire and DLC coating although I scratched the bezel DLC coating at work rubbing it against a metal door frame. I wrecked my Apple Watch by rubbing it against stuff and had to get a replacement. Deep scratches formed on the screen. It sucked. That will not happen to this watch's display. that gives me peace of mind. it’s a bit lighter than the 5x plus, but with the band still heavy. You’ll feel it. Overall, at the $650-$700 or less price point, it's potentially a worthy competitor to others in the industry. I would not get the 6. The screen is quite small coming from a series 4. I also tried the six. The 1.4inch size is really nice on the 6x pro and saphire. In summary, At the current 850 + tax. Still no way unless you’re looking to splurge and be disappointed by many of the key aspects you would not want to be disappointed by. Think of all the other cool effective equipment you can buy for that! I bought a wahoo kicker for less! That made me a better athlete. Not the sexy watch. It’s good, but not that good. Wait for a sale or buy pre-owned and you’ll be much happier. as I said a millions times, I got a good deal because I offset the cost by selling the Apple Watch for what I paid for it new, and then buying pre-owned. Out of pocket at that point was pretty low. That’s my final verdict and recommendation to you. I’m always going to laugh a little at myself for spending as much as I did on this watch because they’re obsolete in a year and we use them less than our phones and spend just as much on them. Aside from the stuff I mentioned, it is pretty amazing for navigation in the woods. I didn’t even mention how you can have it create a route for you for a run in an area you’re not familiar with. It can do these out and back runs or back to start routes if you get lost. You can view the map as you run and the route is highlighted in purple and at it's worst, it's about 50 ft off actual distance or location when in wooded areas. When on an open road with clear skies, it's on point. It's the jack of all trades and master of none other than navigation. im still learning it and will keep updating it as I UPDATE: 12/18/2019: Another thing worth mentioning, The power meter accuracy on this also is off. I calibrate it before every ride with my Quarq meter on my tri bike and when compared to my Wahoo app which is paired to my Kickr, it's always 20-30 Watts off. It makes no sense to me because I thought it would be projecting the numbers from the Kickr. This watch sucks at data collection in that regard. I really can't emphasize that point enough. There are some major issues with HR accuracy, too. I've gone as far to shave my arm hair to see if it would improve it (It might have in the smallest way, but I didn't do a scientific study to see.) and even after some updates which have improved HR readings, it still is awful with specific tasks - one in particular. The HR accuracy has never been accurate on any hikes. It only works on steady state indoor rides and runs that are also steady state or tempo. I contacted Garmin twice, and to their credit, after pushing a little bit on the second call, they sent me a second Fenix 6 because they thought the sensor was broken. It was not. The hiking app on the 6x pro sapphire will not produce an accurate HR reading. It will never break through a certain threshold. For example, if I'm hiking up a hill and my HR is at 160, the watch will NEVER display a HR above 90-110. Now, if I switch to trail running during the same hike instead of the hiking activity, the HR will shoot up to where it actually is. This is a flaw I brought to Garmin's attention and they are aware of it but a lot of time hasn't passed yet and I do not know when it will be fixed. If ever. It is clearly a software issue. As a result, I will be returning this watch for a full refund from them if it's not working as advertised in a month or two. I'm willing to give them some time to work out this bug but it should never have been there. Not on a product like this. It's a good watch for it's display, battery life and wilderness GPS tracking capabilities. It isn't for the HIIT athlete unless you're willing to accept some compromises and also buy an external HR strap for serious interval work. And again, accept that your bike wattage displayed will be off even after calibration. In conclusion, it's very clear to me that this is a watch that has too much in it and the focus is far too broad for success to exist in any one specific area other than navigation, an easy to read display, and battery life due to its size. Their companion app is excellent but not as helpful as you'd think because your HR data will be inaccurate during any interval workouts and for hikes, it's essentially non-operational. However, It will work during steady state cycling indoors or out, and tempo run workouts just as well as an apple watch 4 or 5. I have compared it to both while running and riding on a bike they basically are equal. UPDATE 1/22/20: OK, so I've been testing out this watch since August, the main flaw I have reported is the watch's failure to accurately track HR during the Hike activity app as stated above. Even with the 5.77 software BETA installed, it still doesn't work. After talking to garmin in the past, they told me it was working as intended on the smaller watch. I decided to pick one up to test it to see if they were lying to me. They weren't I have both watches on hand for testing purposes and the Fenix 6 standard watch correctly reflects my HR during a hike or even run when the activity is set as a hike. The Fenix 6X sapphire still holds my HR at 90BMP when it's actually 170+. Garmin told me that they are aware of the issue and 40 other users brought it to their attention but they are currently working on other things at the moment and it is only being investigated. I would not buy this watch. I am going to return this and keep the smaller 6 since it actually works as advertised. There is no established end date to the false HR reading during hiking. This is an unacceptable bug and they're openly admitting that they're working on other things before they get around to that, so for that reason I'm out. Go with the smaller 6 and it'll likely work right out of the box as intended. The only solution is to log the activity differently. If you log your hike as a run, it will record HR data properly.

This thing is awesome. I went with the 6x Sapphire because I'm 6'7" - 265lbs, but the same would apply to all in this Fenix 6 range. I've had (and still have but will likely NOT wear any longer) two Android wear watches.. Wow do they have a long way to go to get to anything close to this in terms of battery life and satisfaction. *This is my first foray into Garmin watches. After just 24 hours after unboxing, I can say that I'm very impressed with the build, screen, look, and feel. Not one hiccup to report and nothing but a great experience thus far. I'll be sure to come back if any of these impressions change in the future, but no regrets here! If on the fence, just buy it as I know you won't be disappointed.

I have had many Garmin devices over the year, this is my 4th watch from Garmin, and by far the best. The battery life is amazing and the features you get are by far not always necessary but very useful. The measure of your O2 in your blood has shown some good benefits, but not the reason I bought it. The only downfall is that the screen isn't a touch screen, but getting used to the controls isn't a difficult feat. The watch is comfortable to wear and very accurate in the heartrate monitoring.
