File limitations of the fenix 5x?

For the epix, I found this:

"When sending or creating files for an outdoor device, keep in mind the following device limitations:

epix

1,000 waypoints
50 routes, 250 points per route
100 saved tracks
10,000 points per track
Unlimited points per fit file (limited only by storage space available on device)
Connect IQ supported (watch faces, data fields, widgets and apps); Connect IQ apps may fill available internal memory before file limitations are met
250 BirdsEye Imagery files
mapping segments* vary by model:
- Approximately 4000 on base model
- Approximately 3500 on unit preloaded with Topo US 100K maps"

For the 5x I can´t find this information on the garmin support site (or I'm too stupid to find it). Does that also apply to the fenix 5x?

Found this online. It says it doesn't support the ability to add maps, but I'm pretty sure the 5x does support that.

When sending or creating files for an outdoor device, keep in mind the following device limitations:

D2 Bravo, fenix 3 series, fenix 5 series, quatix 3, tactix Bravo

1,000 waypoints
50 routes, 250 points per route
100 saved tracks
10,000 points per track
Unlimited points per fit file (limited only by storage space available on device)
Ability to add maps unsupported
Connect IQ supported (watch faces, data fields, widgets and apps); Connect IQ apps may fill available internal memory before file limitations are met

Each GPX file can contain a mixture of waypoints, geocaches, routes and tracks. If the GPX file containing a waypoint or geocache is deleted, the waypoint will no longer be available on device.

When utilizing routes, only 50 points can be used for on road navigation.

Has anyone tried uploading tracks with more than 500 points into their Fenix? I tried with Basecamp to upload a 700 point track, but it gets reduced to 500 points on the watch itself?

I am not able to send any data (favorite or track etc.) via basecamp to my 5x+.

I have a track that has 10,308 track points which loads onto my fenix 5X just fine. If the limit is 10,000, I'm not sure where it loses the 308 since the route appears complete.
