Equipped with 1.2”, 1.3” and 1.4” MIP respectively, the outdoor series feature wear-resistant, scratch-resistant and anti-reflective high standard Power Sapphire, as well as highly permeable patented solar panel. By expanding the solar panels’ surface and optimising the solar cell’s configuration and conductive materials, solar efficiency has increased by 200%, compared with its previous generation. The Power Manager function has been upgraded, allowing the overall battery life of fēnix 7X to increase by nearly 300%, achieving up to 24 days of battery life under UltraTrac Mode. With more than 40 advanced built-in sports modes, suitable for mountaineering, triathlon, bouldering, cross-country running, etc, the new Real-Time Stamina function allows users to understand their current physical strength and adjust their speed and intensity in real time. In long-distance races, it helps athletes to strategize and manage their own efforts at different intervals.
Athletes can activate the Up Ahead feature to set their strategy before the race: Using the Garmin Connect app, they can create a route and mark waypoints. After syncing to the fēnix 7 smart watch, they can quickly preview preset checkpoints, water stations, medical stations and other route data. The fēnix 7X is also the first in the industry to offer a built-in flashlight, supporting four levels of brightness and red strobe light, which can be activated in critical situations to display SOS signals. For runners who prefer to run at night, they can set the flashlight to running cadence, and the watch will alternate between white and red lights as you swing your arm, making the lights even more prominent to enhance personal safety.
