If you want to charge it fully, it’ll take about 3 hours. Your watch should come partially charged so you can get going immediately. One thing I love is having easy access to widgets so you can see tons of data - like race time predictions, training status, heart rate, and more - without ever having to open the Garmin Connect app.
It’s pretty intuitive, though I did have to do some Googling when I couldn’t figure out how to access certain features and settings. Instead, you use the five side buttons to navigate through every command.
The face of the Fenix 6s Pro isn’t a touch screen. My only issue is that the band is somewhat tough to size, with one notch feeling a little tight and the next slightly loose. I love that it doesn’t look overwhelming on my wrist, but it’s still big enough to read. The overall size of the watch is designed specifically for smaller wrists from 4.25 to 7.16 inches (10.8 to 18.2 cm).
It’s easy to rinse off, and since it’s waterproof, you can even wear it in the shower. However, even after some muddy and wet hiking and ocean kayaking, it still looks brand-new. I picked white, even though I was worried it would start to look dingy fast. If you want, you can buy other bands from Garmin to swap out later.ĭepending on the edition you choose, you’ll have a couple color options. The Fenix 6s Pro comes with a silicone band, which is comfortable for daily wear. I’d recommend skipping the upgrade and saving some cash for any accessories you might want. While the Sapphire edition is supposed to have added scratch resistance, I can’t imagine needing it. But after 2 months of drops, scrapes, and bangs, I’m happy to report it remains scratch-free. With its glass face, I was worried the Fenix would be more like a delicate new iPhone than my old plastic-and-silicone Forerunner.
