The multisport watch king returns<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Garmin Fenix \u200b\u200b5 remains an excellent multisport watch that successfully combines all elements of Garmin’s incredible range of specialist devices. For those pursuing running, cycling, swimming, hiking and even golfing, this is an unrivalled device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, there are drawbacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first is the price, but the Garmin Fenix \u200b\u200b5 is essentially a 6-in-1 device – more if you count the options provided by Garmin Connect IQ.\u00a0Garmin Fenix \u200b\u200b5 watch battery<\/a><\/u><\/strong>life<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the reduced size from the Fenix \u200b\u200b3, the battery life of the Garmin Fenix \u200b\u200b5 watch has not been affected. Garmin claims that the Fenix \u200b\u200b5 has aGarmin Fenix \u200b\u200b5 watch battery<\/a><\/strong>life of up to two weeks as a watch, which makes perfect sense. But no one should spend a lot of money on a watch – at least not one this ugly. What matters is how much exercise you can do<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our only real complaint is the optical heart rate sensor, which, unlike other aspects of the Garmin Fenix \u200b\u200b5, is not gold standard. But for the truly active, the Fenix \u200b\u200b5 is the best on the market. The Garmin Fenix \u200b\u200b5 was one of the most capable multisport outdoor watches on the market, blending some of the most detailed metrics into a single device. It’s now been replaced by the Garmin Fenix \u200b\u200b5 Plus, but is widely available through some great Garmin deals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s still a color screen, and the visuals look a little sharper, thanks to a new 240 x 240 resolution (up from 218 x 218)Best GPS Running Watches<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Fenix \u200b\u200b5 makes better use of Garmin Connect IQ, making it a more personal, versatile sports watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, that’s with Bluetooth connected and all settings set to default, so you can probably get a few more hours out of it. It should get you through all but the toughest ultramarathons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’ve experienced issues with the UltraTrac and are still working on resolving those issues, so we can’t verify Garmin’s claim of 60 hours of tracking time, but rest assured we’re actively testing it properly and will update accordingly. While the Fenix \u200b\u200b5 offers a lot of benefits for all-day wear, it’s still not a very pretty watch. It’s industrial and bulky, with five screws on the bezel. But the lighter and smaller design does mean you can wear it all day, and those who love the outdoors can turn it into a permanent watch.
