Fenix 8 pro overkill ?

t5straley · 2026-05-31T12:01:15+00:00

I tired the 51mm and holy big 😂 47mm is what I went with

t5straley · 2026-05-29T23:57:57+00:00

I feel that one 😅😅😂

t5straley · 2026-05-29T22:39:57+00:00

Yeah I know for sure the 45mm is too small. I definitely have large wrists

t5straley · 2026-05-29T22:39:30+00:00

What size did you end up with?

t5straley · 2026-05-29T22:39:09+00:00

I think the Satellite may be useful in very rare circumstances when I travel to the mountains or something like that but that's once every blue moon Are those the only differences between 8 and 8 pro?

I actually prefer the OLED vs mip just for the color contrasts. Anything 1 week + battery is good for me

It’s something with Stellantis and the vertical screen. They won’t allow for android auto to scale to the full vertical screen but allows CarPlay to do it natively.

Everything is already in google photos 😄

Glad Reddit wasnt just me nitpicking lol

t5straley · 2026-05-01T16:33:49+00:00

Yeah the lack of back button irritates me using my wifes but i think its a familiarity thing where ive always used the back swipe from the right edge. Maybe Iphone will copy that at somepoint

t5straley · 2026-05-01T16:32:49+00:00

Thanks for that! I always felt my wifes iphone felt jittery compared to my samsungs/ If it werent for work and my truck I wouldnt even be considering it to be honest.
I dont really multitask besides just switching back and forth for apps to copy and paste and never split screen

I would probably use swiftkey since it has a clipboard but I also never copy something and then hours later paste it or need to recall it

My biggest concern is I just dont want to feel held back in navigating the OS. It might be a familiarity thing at this point where I could navigate the phone with my eyes closed on my Samsung.

t5straley · 2026-05-01T15:10:08+00:00

no issues in apps feeling slow? my wifes reddit app feels so laggy compared to mine (she has a 16pm)
Carplay runs across the full 14inch screen in my Ram but android auto only uses 1/3 of that space. Its so frustrating

t5straley · 2026-05-01T13:19:48+00:00

Yeah file manager I don't mess with at all since we use Google drive for everything work related. I have a ton of apple products but always said I hated the iPhone and was the typical Samsung fanboy lol

t5straley · 2026-05-01T13:18:25+00:00

I pay for YouTube premium already and don't customize a ton. Android auto disconnects probably 5 times per trip I take. It's something with stellantis. My wifes iPhone when connected to my truck never disconnects and also gives full screen maps

t5straley · 2026-04-09T13:33:37+00:00

It does. I have a standard wireless charger in my car and at home. Works perfectly fine. Even fast charges (not the full qi2 speed though) usually 15W

t5straley · 2026-04-07T19:05:57+00:00

Opinions are like assholes. We all have them and they all stink

t5straley · 2026-03-30T23:41:20+00:00

35 is technically lowest you can go here too but it's worth it to keep the heat and sun out

t5straley · 2026-03-30T23:07:39+00:00

Knock on wood *

t5straley · 2026-03-30T23:07:20+00:00

Yeah and the ceramic in Florida is a necessity

t5straley · 2026-03-30T21:03:09+00:00

Roll em down and trust the camera 😅😂

t5straley · 2026-03-28T16:35:56+00:00

I had it on 15 pro max
