Shopping for a ticker that can track your activity? Garmin’s Fenix 7 might be the last-gen model now, but it’s still one of the best GPS sports watches you can buy. And if you’re in the market for discounted wristwear, Amazon’s got an over a third-off deal worth sprinting for.
For Amazon’s Spring Sale, the Garmin Fenix 7 is available from Amazon UK for the discounted price of £357. That’s a whopping reduction of 31% from the recommended retail price of £520. On Amazon US, the watch is an even better 38% off – down from $800 to $500. These deal prices make Garmin’s entry cheaper than the Apple Watch Ultra!
The Garmin Fenix 7 is a rugged beast built for big wrists and bossing almost any sport. It offers all the running, cycling and swimming smarts on cheaper Garmin watches and it’s packing enough outdoor trickery for anyone who wants to tackle wilder adventures like scuba, remote hikes and off-piste skiing. Even golf.
The Fenix 7 comes with a responsive touchscreen, up to 122 hours of solar-boosted battery life and more accurate GPS. It also packs the most complete set of training, performance, navigation and analysis features, across the widest range of activities, on any Garmin sports watch. Except maybe the newer Fenix 8 model.
That’s all backed by a comprehensive suite of tools for tracking daily health and wellness, plus all the smartwatch skills that Garmin now offers on its increasingly smart watches. That includes Garmin Pay contactless payments and offline music support for Spotify, Deezer and Amazon Music.
In reality, this is more watch than most people need with a considerable price tag many won’t be able to afford. But if your budget stretches – and your fitness pursuits demand it – the Garmin Fenix 7’s impressive combination of rugged durability, serious battery endurance, excellent navigation skills and the richest suite of training analysis, wellness and smartwatch skills, make this the best all-rounder sports watch you can buy right now.
