    Great video, thanks. My 6X arrived today and I can confirm the quality is just as described, very nice. On a side note the 3rd party watch faces from the 5 series are currently not compatible with the 6 series, I suspect they will have to be recompiled to support the new features and screen size. Upshot is there's currently a limited number of additional watch faces and apps available.

  • @ipjt2
    @ipjt2 Před 5 lety +5

    Thanks for the review. I'm however skeptical to comparing the "screen clarity/brightness" between the two watches in the video as the 5x plus uses the saphire glass whereas the 6 uses gorilla glass. I think the gorilla glass is brighter in general.

    • @JRsReviews
      @JRsReviews  Před 5 lety +3

      Ian Thorslund that does have an impact. But the clarity is very apparent in reality.
      The main difference is the size of the screen, it’s not down to the brightness as this is controlled anyway from the backlight

What's is good of the 6x is the clarity of the screen who is better than 5x series... But for me it is not enough to make an upgrade! I hope that the "plus" version will get the phone call and receiving call option! Nice watch for those who have not the fenix 5x version and want an Upgrade!

That is, you have a screen with the heading and the plus and minus indicators to keep you on course? I have the Garmin Descent MK I which is like a Fenix and a dive computer all in one, and I have navigated with it in the woods and on a boat in a very large lake. But I have not seen the precision indicator used as on the Garmin Foretrex 401.

Apple Watch and Casio support them through ViewRanger so Garmin missing a feature compared to the competition

    I wouldnt say "You can see alot more when it comes to maps" . Sure the 6 has a smaller bezel but its not that big of a difference. The more space for data fields is nice though.

    I recently purchased the Vivoactive 4 but unfortunately, I sent it back due to the 2 vibration notification when receiving a text or a phone call. Garmin informed me that it will only vibrat 2-3 times due to trying to safe battery life. I would like to have the option for it to vibrate 2 or 20 times or 5 to 15 seconds. I discovered the issue when I was working out, missed very important calls due to the 2 fast vibration which only last 1 second. I was going to order the Fenix 6, but they said that it's program to do the same way. Have you had this issue and if you have how can it be fixes. For the cost of the smartwatches I should dictate how many seconds or how many times it should vibrate, not Garmin. Please let me know your thoughts, thank you.

      I would stay far away from the Gorilla glass and go with the Sapphire 6X. The scratches on the Gorilla will not outweigh the Solar benefit. The Solar benefit is pretty small after reading the charts anyway.

      @@JRsReviewsI would prefer the pro version because of the black bezel and I don't like sapphire versions because they are not as bright.
      Think I will buy the 6x pro as I have a 2 and a half year old Fenix5 which isn't DLC coated as well and still looks almost like new

    i like the watch. big jump from 5 series but...first day or day 1 I smacked the door lock with my wrist couldnt believe the damage just from this 1 hit leaving 2-3 smaller scratches on screen also missing the 6-7mm paint on a ring. didnt have that kinda demage on series 3 and 5 together. always making a jokes with guys who bought other smart wathes saving the money telling them garmin is the boss. otherwise everything goes well, im spendidng a lot of time outdoors privat including my job which is similar or very close to my hobi. screen is great i love it thats a big improvement, data goes faster and overall feel is better and battery life is arround 2 weeks which is good. lil bit more hardware protection for this money the answer is yes, would i change this watch for another answer is no bcuz i love it. this is my personal opinion. thank you.

    Hi Buddy, is the Fenix 6 compatible with Polar speed/cadence sensors? I have been using a Polar GPS watch on my racing bike for several years. In March this year, Polar stopped supporting the online software which allowed me to upload my runs and then see, second by second, my pulse, speed, cadence as well as other stuff on a map of my ridden route. Polar made me an offer of 15% off to buy a new watch. I won't be buying Polar to protest on their arrogance. Am thing of the watch shown here, would appreciate your feedback. Thanks 🤘
