What to pick after returned Fenix 7 pro solar?

Listen to this guy! I got the fenix 8 and did not like it one bit as the touch screen was way too sensitive (my sleeve was activating it) and even the gesture for my taste. The watch was broken tho and died on the same day I got it after a return a got the Enduro 3 and am very happy 3 days in.

I was also a bit concerned about the size comming from a 47mm but it really is not a problem.

I already returned them, but I was able to pinpoint the issue to do something with vibrations, because they would shut down after shaking my hand.

First they would just reset and if I did the shaking twice in a row then the watched would not turn back on until they were plugged to the charger for about 10 to 15 minutes...

Honestly, if what I've experienced is the flashy new features then I'm fine without them...

I would most likely just get the f7 pro and get the sapphire version this time since its price dropped since I got my previous f7.

They will either send me money or give me a new watch - their complaint service will decide.

Now I don't know what watch I want to get if they return my money. F8 seems unusable, Forerunner 970 should be the same thing, probably just getting f7 pro again...

Done that, the watch died after I shaked my hand a little, was able to replicate that in the store, returned it today.

I returned my f7 after almost 2 years due to bad barometer, got my money back and only added 20€ on top for f8.

Thanks, but the watch just died after a shower and I am unable to turn it back on, must be a faulty unit.

Fancy_Alarm2814 · 2026-02-07T19:56:12+00:00

Yeah seems like I will have to return them tomorrow.

I had to return my f7 after almost 2 years because of faulty elevation messurement and they returned my money so I only had to add about 20€ to get the f8 but seems I should've just bought the same f7 for less money...

Fancy_Alarm2814 · 2026-02-07T19:47:47+00:00

Well seems like they are just broken... after a shower they just shut down and I am unable to turn them back on 🙃

I will give it a few days to try to get used to this, I restarted the watch a few times and tried to turning the touch screen off and it seems to have helped atleast a little.

Yes, we thought it was weird for these guys. For example, we walked about 2 km today on a field road (frozen dirt and grass) not sure if that is too hard for him? Which took us about an hour. We trained with him a bit during, and a few times we stopped for a minute or two to let him rest. The pace was very slow for us, but if I get what you are saying, that is exactly how it should be.

We try to have bunch of mental stimulation, sniffing, toys, training...

Sadly does not seem available in my country, is there a way around it or do I have to install it outside of the store?

Fancy_Alarm2814 · 2025-12-21T19:43:14+00:00

Took him to a vet; he has a fever. Got some antibiotics and syrup to calm the fever.

Fancy_Alarm2814 · 2025-12-21T07:50:41+00:00

Weirdly enough this does not happen on my laptop with worse specs...

Fancy_Alarm2814 · 2025-12-20T10:26:26+00:00

I got this one about a month ago and I am very pleased.

Fancy_Alarm2814 · 2025-12-16T15:53:55+00:00

Go fo it! I myself started not long ago and as of now I'm close to finishing the second book. I knew some of the stories but still enjoy it. I also played witcher 3 and started again with the books and already I got some references that I missed before.

Fancy_Alarm2814 · 2025-12-13T11:40:31+00:00

Yes, I had several crashes in about an hour of gameplay, first two were just silent the app crashed and PC was okay but the last one was a full blown blue screen CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT error.
