My girlfriend bought me a Fenix 7 Pro Sapphire Solar 47mm after months of coming home and seeing me watching TH-cam videos about Garmin watches. I honestly didn't know what to say, but I did propose to her a week later so.. yeah she surprised me so I had to surprise her lol
I just got it delivered today! It's really impressive (mine is 51 mm) and it has so many customizable features. I recommend getting the Connect IQ app besides the Connect one... Amazing!
same here. got the Fenix 7 pro because of battery life, but the functions are beyond everything I had previously owned. As I got it, I thought about returning it because of the size and weight. But in the end I think this is THE high end Sports watch.
Thanks. How do you connect the cable that it comes with to a laptop with a USB exit? (so that we can connect to Garmin express and add device). Thanks.
Remember when a watch simply had the time, and maybe the date? This is incredible, and now I want to upgrade from my basic instinct that I have had for 4 years to this.
just got this watch coming from the shocking galaxy watch 4, damn thing was charging more than on my wrist, the activity functions are clunky to start with, but garmin just hit that start button an away i go!! thanks to the cool videos like this one here i managed to make the right decision the second time around, so thanks for making the video you saved me money aha
Broadcast HR can be done from the controls menu (you have to add the control), also, per workout, you can set the activity settings to broadcast HR as well
Ryan, please. How can I use the touchscreen lap on the activities? I can not use it on strength activity, I need to push the button... On the 955 solar, it could be done, but on the epix pro don't. Did you know why? Or there are some tip for me please. Thanks!
how is the HRV stress (needs chest strap) differs from HRV by the watch (automatically)? I don't wanna use the chest strap ever again (before every workout? is garmin kidding!?) .___.
If you guys take a look at the watch face in the video, it says Epix Pro on it. Only stock watch faces have the name of the watch AFAIK. So I don't know what happened to it.
Cordial greetings from Colombia, very good video please which epix pro you are reviewing is 47 or 51 mm. my wrist measures 17.4 CM which of the fos would you recommend and the other question is I have an epix 2 sapphire multiband I bought it in December 2022 do you think my watch is relegated and if it is worth switching to pro, the truth is wue Was the pro so recent? . Thank you, I was attentive to your answer.
Hey thanks for watching! This is the 47mm, but based on the size of your wrist I think the 51mm is going to look ok too, but not at comfortable as the 47mm. And about your second question, if you already own an Epix 2, I don't recommend upgrading to Epix Pro. Just not worth it!
@@RyansTechMedia Thank you very much for taking the time to answer, I also congratulate you for the way you make the video. I will continue to see your reviews and from Colombia many big hugs.
can the background on garmin epix 2 change the color background on the chest, not talkig about the watch face, but all the backgrounds you get where you go in the watch
Great video’s i was all ready putting the trigger about to buy tactix pro solar, no my mind changed to epic pro solar titanium 47mm. One question how long is the real world use not 16 days. If you use for daily gym and have it all day on the wrist how long the battery life is. Thanks for the great video’s
Hey Ryan do you know which watch face Garmin makes it battery life claims from or which watch face gives the best battery life? I know some of these hi data field watch faces draw alot of power by constantly using things like pulse ox etc
That's true when it comes to those from third-party developers. But about the first part of your question, it's usually the watch face you see when you first turn on the watch. But also other watch faces from Garmin you see on the watch are just as good because they are way more efficient and have access to certain things when being developed that third-party developers don't.
Turns out my Epix2 isn't pro, but I found the watch face elsewhere when I searched for Epix2 Pro2. It appears as Epix Pro on my watch face. Plenty of options.

Beautiful!
I'm waiting on my delivery of the garmin epix Gen 2 sapphire. This video will really help. Thank you

Fenix 7x pro or Epix for me. Where did you buy yours from?
I just bought it and it's great. I've been using FR245 so far, so the difference is huge.
once you learn to navigate the epix gen 2 pro you realize what an awesome watch this is. This is the watch ive wanted my whole life.
It sure is an awesome watch!

Go for the 2X Instinct
Better yet, go for the Instinct Crossover!
I have the 51mm this watch is incredible 💶💶💶This screen is so sweet ❤
Could you check how long the battery lasts without AOD, with 5-6 hours of GPS per week?
Enough for two weeks? Garmin says 31 days in watch mode
Can we download this dial?

I am MOST amazed at the look of the analog watch face. I thought it was a Garmin analog watch when I started the video. Incredible.
How much this smartwatch?
Hi All - I’m new to Garmin. I’ve bought the Epix Pro2 Sapphire. Silly question; how do I exit an activity and get the home screen of the watch back?
Put your hand over the screen.
Broadcast HR can be done from the controls menu (you have to add the control), also, per workout, you can set the activity settings to broadcast HR as well

Is your Calendar not working too? I touch the Calender and nothing happen?
What's that watch face and how do you get it?
I was about to the same question. Did you figure it out?
It's a stock watch face. Just go to the watch faces on the watch and I'm sure you'll find it!
@@RyansTechMedia I can't find anywhere. My watch is Epix Gen2. Please try and name it. Cheers
@@RyansTechMedia I have the Epix Pro Gen 2 and this face is not here look awesome

Not solar-powered? I have difficulty deciding between Fenix 7X Pro Sapphire and Epix 2nd gen. Any thoughts?
Here the same. I can’t decide between amoled and mip display…
That watchface available too on fenix 7 non pro?
Great video’s i was all ready putting the trigger about to buy tactix pro solar, no my mind changed to epic pro solar titanium 47mm.

6 days

A very useful video, thank you.
Glad you think so!
I have a Garmin EPIX2 Pro. What is the watch face in this video?
It's one of the stock watch faces. Just go to the watch faces and it should be there.
Go to the watch faces where? What address? Help! I'm still lost.@@RyansTechMedia
If I get there, what is the watch face called?@@RyansTechMedia
Turns out my Epix2 isn't pro, but I found the watch face elsewhere when I searched for Epix2 Pro2. It appears as Epix Pro on my watch face. Plenty of options.
Hi, great video! I cannot find dial like that, i have epix pro. Tips?
Good to see the better audio prompts. I love using the lap alert on the forerunner 245!
Is this 47 or 51 mm?
47mm
thank you so much!
i just bought one it was an impulse buy its too complicated for me
10:37 hahaha that was funny. i was like: "What???"
The bezel seams to be very silver, not grey. It's the light or it's this silver irl?
(Sorry for broken English)
It's more gray than anything else. It's just the lighting and its reflection. 🙂
It's slightly.lighter than the previous versions of the watch. But light makes it look lighter.
Is the screen reflective under light
They have the ability to see HRV now on the watch as 7 day average, last night, average chart, and baseline over last 4 weeks.
The log hrv is only for saving to the files that are exported from the watch. Its been there for years.
That's what I said though in the instructions on how to use it, no?
Damn that screen is indeed beautiful
Totally!
This RPO is so beautifull. Have 51mm and like candy to child.
Same here
thank you
Thanks for watching!
Just took my Epix 2 47 saffire out of the box! I am saving this video because you talk fast. LOL than you.
You keep saying press start/stop button for the menu..
It's the left center button
Bros tryna tell us it's no country for old men
Thats a nice face, what watch face is that?
