It couldn't be more extensive.
- More readable display in the pool than the Fenix 7. Super display, or AMOLED screen.
- Even more options when choosing an outdoor bike ride, for example.
- Sensitive to autopause, every minimal movement is registered as if you have restarted the activity.
The Fenix 8 offers even more options than its predecessor. Once you've explored the menu, you'll see just how extensive the possibilities are. The display is especially easy to read for athletes who use reading glasses.
