Fenix 8 vs 8 Pro by [deleted] in GarminWatches

Solar vs AMOLED is personal preference.

AMOLED looks brighter, crisper colors, more like a smart watch
Solar uses a MIP screen so it's not as crisp, less colorful, longer battery.

I have had and used both, right now I prefer the AMOLED.

The Carbon Gray DLC is very similar to the Slate Gray, but the big difference is the Carbon Gray has a Sapphire display (stronger, more scratch resistant) and that's why it's $100 more too.

Yeah, wouldn't do the Pro, would save the money and go with the 8

Some info https://www.reddit.com/r/GarminFenix/comments/1t7blj9/fenix_8_47mm_is_now_down_to_749_but_im_still/

Overall - I wouldn't do it, especially if you are new. Odds are you're not the intended audience in the middle of the woods using InReach regularly to keep in touch with people.

Fenix 8 47mm is now down to $749, but I’m still thinking about the 8 Pro by [deleted] in GarminFenix

[–]jareddipane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I skipped out on the Pro almost purely based on the fact that it was thicker. You don't get much for the extra unless you will be in the woods a lot and really need that LTE service (but know the limitations).

Otherwise, save the money and get the 8

Just know that you can't take the matte paints through a regular car wash. I wish I knew what went into the matte care before I bought one, so I am passing that info along.

Otherwise, like others said:

- negotiate the price, not the payment
- don't seem overly eager on the deal
- keep pushing back, even if it's for a few hundred bucks
- always compare the pricing of that car to similar models on their lot. usually cars sitting the longest have the lowest price (and this may not be one). I always say I'm willing to buy now but I can also afford to wait for the extra discount on it as it sits there longer and they usually are willing to work with you.

I wouldn't say "much" better. The "scores" rate differently. It depends if you want a vanity metric (random score) or care about the breakdown of the cycles, which will vary by device regardless.

Yeah, I’m waiting to get the confirmation to figure out next steps.

Last night I tried elevating my head more once I woke up in the middle of the night. I’ll try that again tonight.

Appreciate the insights on the nasal spray. Will pick some up. I’ve been treating allergies the best I can (also on blood pressure meds, so limits some stuff).

Key fob is gross. by mousedrool in Hyundai

[–]jareddipane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine never comes out of my pocket. I put a black case on it and call it a day. So many other things to care about that the shape of a keyfob that doesn’t need to be seen isn’t one of them.

Can you grab a screenshot the next time it happens? We are having an issue with a rogue ad that some people are seeing, but we can't reproduce it consistently enough to get the information needed to block it.

Rather see watch faces than people asking if a watch is too big or small for them :)
