About Garmin fenix 7X Solar 51mm Multisport GPS Smartwatch

Go Longer. Get Stronger. Seven Days A Week.

• Get a battery boost from the sunlight, so you can go longer between charges.
• Do more. Charge less. Solar charging yields up to 37 days of battery life in smartwatch mode.
• How is your body holding up? Wrist-based heart rate and Pulse Ox will let you know.
• Need a running coach that knows the terrain? Check out the PacePro feature.
• Run and ride - it's what you do. Tracking all your stats - it's what we do.
• Keep great tunes coming with music on your wrist - and no phone to weigh you down.
• When it gets dark, the built-in LED flashlight helps keep you going.

Solar Charged Battery
Get up to 28 days of battery life in smartwatch mode with an additional 9 days when solar charging - and up to 89 hours in GPS mode with an additional 16 hours when solar charging.

Performance By Design
Updated, ultratough athletic design features a large 1.4" solar charged display and 51 mm case. The watch is tested to U.S. military standards for thermal, shock and water resistance.

Built-In Sports Apps
Use preloaded activity profiles for trail running, swimming, running, biking, hiking, rowing, skiing, golfing, surfing, indoor climbing and more.

Backcountry Skiing And Snowboarding
These activity profiles now automatically distinguish between descending and climbing. So you can hit start on your first run and leave your smartwatch tracking all day long.

XC Ski Dynamics
When paired with the HRM-Pro chest strap (sold separately), the ski power metric helps measure the actual exercise load of your cross-country workouts.

Surf-Ready Features
Get ready to catch some waves. This fenix watch works with the Surfline Sessions feature, which creates a video of every wave you ride in front of a Surfline camera. So you can watch them later and see how you did with your Surfline Sessions subscription.

MTB Dynamics

Visual Race Predictor
Based on your running history and overall fitness level, this feature provides an estimate of what your pace could be for the distance you want to run. Trend data shows how your training is having an impact over time.

Climbpro Feature
Use the ClimbPro ascent planner on downloaded courses to see real-time information on your current and upcoming climbs, including gradient, distance and elevation gain - as well as descents and flats.

Performance Metrics
View advanced training metrics that include running dynamics, heat- and altitude-adjusted VO2 max, trail running adjustment, recovery advisor and more.

Real-Time Stamina
Use this real-time stamina data to track and manage your exertion - and help avoid overexerting at the start of your run or bike.

Recovery Time Advisor
After each workout, recovery time lets you know when you'll be ready for another hard workout. It even accounts for training intensity and factors such as stress, daily activity and sleep.

Race Widget
Get ready for your next race with training tips, personalized daily suggested workouts and completion time predictions based on course details, weather and performance.

Wrist-Based Running Power
See how much power you're applying to the trail or the road so you can manage your effort and fine-tune your training. No accessory required.

Wrist-Based Running Dynamics
This smartwatch measures crucial running metrics such as cadence, stride length, ground contact time and more.

HRV Status
Gain a deeper understanding of your overall health, training and recovery through heart rate variability while you sleep, based on technology developed by our Firstbeat Analytics team.

Training Status
Using new indicators such as HRV status, your recent exercise history and performance, get insight into your overall effort - and whether you're training productively, peaking or strained.

Training Readiness
From the moment you wake up, get a readiness score based on your sleep quality, recovery, training load and more, so you can determine whether it's a good day to go hard - or take it easy.
