Garmin 010-02410-10 fenix 6 Pro Solar, Multisport GPS Watch with Solar Charging Capabilities, Advanced Training Features and Data, Black with Slate Gray Band

Amazing watch! Worth every penny!

The features and construction of this watch are excellent, but the display backlight is sub-par for a device in this price range. The bigger issue appears to be a quality and/or manufacturing deficiency at Garmin since only some of these watches come with a defective washed-out backlight. I myself purchased this watch about three months ago after doing extensive research and I was willing to accept the fact that the display uses LCD technology with low pixels (most other high end watches have OLED screens). However, what I didnt realize at the time of purchase was that Garmin was shipping some watches with blue-tinted washed out backlights, or as their customer service reps refer to it, differing levels of contrast. I reached out to Garmin directly via email yesterday to ask if they are aware of Fenix 6 users having this problem with their watches and what I can do to get a replacement watch. Here is the response that I received from Jared: The fēnix 6 series has better screens across the product line than available on previous fēnix models (larger and more pixels). Some differences between screens is normal when comparing watches side by side. Even though there is some variability from watch to watch, they all meet our design standards. Talk about an indifferent response to a legitimate question! I responded by saying that he didnt actually answer my question. Here was Jareds response: I apologize that my reply didnt directly address your question about replacement. Unfortunately, this is not something we are able to exchange a device for as we can not guarantee if the device would like one or the other (screens in the photo) as I stated, there can be some differences in the contrast displayed by the device. So basically Garmin doesnt even know which products are shipping with good vs. bad screens and it is just a roll of the dice as far as what product shows up on your doorstep. I give zero stars to Garmin customer service for not making an effort to remedy this known manufacturing defect with consumers. I give zero stars to Garmin as a company for not being able to offer products with consistent standards of quality.

Love the big screen - amazing batterie life - 1st one developed a problem with the vibration ( like the motor became loose in the casing ); it was making more noise then vibrating. The good peoples at Amazon replaced the unit and now Im very happy! Most of the annoyances that comme with new products are now getting fixed with firmware updates.

Great watch. Great price. Lots of features.

Love this watch. The larger face, the tactile feel of the buttons when pushed, the tracking capabilities of your activities whether walking or biking, whatever. You can even make adjustments to save battery life. Loved my Fenix 3 Tactix Bravo, but this 6X Pro just replaced it.

I upgraded from my Forerunner 920XT, and what an upgrade it is! Outstanding activity tracking device.

Todo bien, salvo las opciones de pago ejercicio

Encargo de mi hermana, y está fascinada con todas sus funciones, precio elevado pero lo vale, además que la foto no hace justicia, pues en físico está más lindo!!!

I have returned my Fenix 6 Sapphire to get the bigger Fenix 6X Sapphire for the battery duration and of course the big screen. It is obviously clear that the screen/backlight quality is totally different. This Fenix 6X Sapphire backlight give you a cheap feel. For the price you pay, the quality expectation is not there.
