In her review, one of the many highlights Cycling Weekly's Editor Michelle Arthurs-Brennan noted, was the battery life of this Garmin smartwatch. The Fēnix 7X will provide weeks of charge-free use – which is claimed by Garmin to be 28 days or 37 days when using the solar charging. Michelle found it to be nearer a week, when using the watch in GPS mode (which you'll need for tracking activities), and with solar harvesting that's still impressive.
The heart rate accuracy was also noted as being extremely reliable – which is often not the case in a wrist-based device. Michelle tested it out against a chest strap alongside a Garmin Edge 830 computer, and with only 1 bpm discrepancy in the max heart rate, with the average identical – it meant the Fēnix 7X was comparable with some of the best heart rate monitors for accuracy.
Elsewhere, the Fēnix 7 also comes with access to detailed Garmin TopoMaps, and you can download these to your watch; these maps can then be used for on-watch turn-by-turn navigation for cycling or any other outdoor activity like hiking or running. It uses GPS, GLONASS and GALILEO satellite systems to record your location, and this multi-band GPS tracking delivers superb accuracy.
The list of features on the Garmin Fēnix 7X is almost never-ending and it rightly holds a coveted spot in our best smartwatches guide as the best smartwatch for functionality. It rivals the performance of the majority of the best cycling computers offering the best of both worlds, as it can be worn 24/7, and it's an even more attractive purchase in this smartwatch deal.
