I have had a fenix 6 pro since father's day after it came out (when I got it for $429). I have had it with me on 5 of the "7 summits" and many other climbs, I run and train daily. It is an absolutely amazing watch for people that train hard and often and don't want to charge their watch every 5 minutes. I am very used to the button controls and never missed a touchscreen.

BUT the heart rate monitor is and has been garbage. It's not the hardware itself, but the software. During an activity it often predicts what your heart rate should be rather than use the actual reading. I have had tickets with Garmin about it and there are thousands of posts on the forums about it. Of course you can buy a separate monitor (which for some reason are not overriden by the watch). I personally train too much and know my body well to care anymore (and I can check my pulse if needed myself), but if you care about your heart rate during your workouts, plan to buy a separate monitor or look elsewhere.

That said, getting over 3 weeks of battery life in expedition mode or still charging once a week with 2hrs+ of activities almost every day after 3 years makes it in my book the best watch on the planet. I have not looked into the Fenix 7 because the 6 is very similar and getting most of the software upgrades.
considering the price difference between the Garmin Fenix 6 and 7, I don't think the 7 offer's enough new features to justify the price difference. The Fenix 6 is still an excellent watch.

I think this has been discontinued for Fenxi 7. they are overpriced for fenxi 6 at this point.

lol, because they're old and discontinued. You can buy a 955 for a couple bucks more. No brainer compared to these dinosaurs.

Would recommend 955 as well for a 100 bucks more. But don't call it a dinosaur, it's still a very very good watch !
