Review on πŸ”‹ Renewed Garmin Fenix 6 Pro: Premium Multisport GPS Watch with Mapping, Music, Grade-Adjusted Pace Guidance, and Pulse Ox Sensors - Black by Alan Massey

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent watch for GPS, finder and accessories

I hesitated for a long time before buying the Fenix 6X Pro given its high price. When I came across this refurbished one for just over $500 I decided to take a chance. The watch arrived two days early. The shipping box was quite torn and looked like it had hardly been used before. The box that came with the watch contained the watch itself, a charging cable, and instructions. I watched a few YouTube videos so I had a good idea on how to set the clock etc. Also, I have a Garmin Tactix Bravo, so Garmin Express (required) was already installed. I wore the watch for two days and there are many pluses; good overview of my training, heart rate and sleep cycle. The alarm clock was surprisingly loud, which for me; Healthy sleep was good. The dial was easy to read even without glasses. Another surprise was how light the watch is. One feature I haven't tried and didn't want is listening to music. I don't have cool BT headphones, but I have a very nice set of VA-provided BT hearing aids that sync perfectly with my iPhone, so I think they could be paired with the Fenix 6X Pro. I returned the watch as I am planning to purchase the Fenix 6X Pro Solar.

Pros
