Garmin fenix 7S Sapphire Solar
Features
The Garmin fenix 7s Sapphire Solar is Garminâs top-of-the line watch series packed with the most advanced technologies to help you track your workouts and perform better.
The fenix 7s Sapphire Solar edition is the pinnacle of the Garmin fenix series. This model comes in a smaller watch form that fits and looks better on smaller wrists. But, even in a smaller form, the fenix 7S Sapphire Solar packs a punch with the same cutting-edge performance features as the other fenix watches.
The fenix 7s Sapphire Solar has all of the same great features as the fenix 7s and fenix 7s Solar, but has the additional benefit of the Power Sapphire lens™, which can convert sunlight into battery power while being incredibly durable—the sapphire lens is extremely hard, which makes it much more difficult to scratch than glass.
The updated and ultratough design features a 1.2â display that is tested to U.S. military standards for thermal, shock and water resistance. The newest fenix 7 watches features the trusted button controls that work in any environment and a responsive touchscreen interface so you can quickly access your selections.
With preloaded topographical maps and navigation sensors, getting lost is a thing of the past. You can access multiple global navigation satellite systems (GPS, GLONASS and Galileo) so you have the most accurate readings and can track in more challenging environments than GPS alone.
The fenix 7 also tracks advanced training metrics during your runs, that includes pretty much everything you can think of—pace, distance, heat and altitude adjusted VO2 Max, heart rate, trail running adjustment, recovery advisor, real-time stamina data and more.
There are also some great features on the fenix 7 watches to help you race better. A visual race predictor gives you an estimate of what your pace could be for the distance you want to run based on your past performances. Garmin also developed PacePro™, which keeps you on pace during your race with grade-adjusted guidance. Plus, the âUp Aheadâ feature shows you selected information for whatâs coming, including aid stations, upcoming distance/elevation, and key trail points.
The fenix 7 Sapphire Solar has all of the great features you know and love from Garmin. Smart notifications appear on the phone, so you will always get a text message or alerts. You can listen to your music with 32GB of storage (up to 2,000 songs) so you do not need to carry your phone. Plus, the device includes WiFi and Garmin Pay, so if your run isnât going well you can pay for an ice cream break with your watch.
