Garmin is great, but it has certain lines better suited for certain things. For adventure seekers, the Fenix line is the best of the best, and its newest model – the Fenix 8 – is currently on offer at Amazon with over £100 off.

You’ll find all three sizes of the Fenix 8 on offer, in both the white and black colourway. However, the 43mm size is currently the cheapest, reduced from £819.99 to £713.99. This isn’t far off from its Prime Day price tag (£702.99), which was also its cheapest. So, the fact that you can grab it for just £11 more is very decent.

The Fenix 8 is built for exploration, equipped with full-color TOPO maps, point-of-interest navigation, and a trackback function – all backed by an impressive battery life that can extend to nearly a month (case size dependent). It also incorporates the newest Elevate v5 optical sensor, delivering more accurate heart rate monitoring, and has a bright AMOLED display.

With its regular price tag over £800, there’s no denying the Fenix 8 is incredibly pricey. Now just slightly more than £700, it seems a little more reasonable. Especially as it’s a smartwatch that isn’t just for the short term, the Fenix 8 is for the long haul.
