Fenix 3HR

I know I am in the wrong forum but does anyone know where did the Fenix 3HR forum go? Maybe Garmin moderator can answer that? Thank you.

A full month after the forum ‘transport” am I obliged to say that Fenix 3 and 3HR related posts had been deliberately sunken by Garmin?

And may we use now bad words towards the company mirroring…

This shows the level of care Garmin gives to products that are no longer in their current production. If I would not know any better I would say that this is a deliberate action to force users to buy the…

Level of care in my case (when my fenix 3 stopped working) was - buy a new one, we can't repair that one, the water probably got in. Inside the water resistant watch!?? I had 2 fenix 3 watches died in period of 3 years. And I should spend 1000$ for new model? What is the chance it will die soon after 2 year warranty expires when taking into consideration my previous experience with fenix 3

Dear Gaijin,

WE DO WORRY, because old contenst have been accidently lost or deliberately destroyed or deliberately made hidden.

before i purchased my fenix 3 my family used garmin navigation units for our 2 vehicles. this was before google maps/navigation etc making these units basically obsolete. nothing wrong with them, smart phones are just more convenient. then i decided to upgrade my polar fitness watch to a garmin fenix 3, for me this was a big investment as i am not wealthy. my f3 still works fine and i can't afford nor do i need the latest model. my question/reply is why isn't there a "US" forum??? where are the archived forums for my product? do i need to choose a different product/company? support is expected and it's looking like older products(even if they still function perfectly) are being ignored. at the time of this post it says the supposed migration of the new site/forums have not been implemented yet, this was 5 months ago? wtf?

Obviously, the info I was given was inexact about future availability of the older forums, and the longer it goes, the more worried I am that they will not be restored. I am very concerned that all the old content about fenix, tactix, fenix2, fenix2SE, tactix Bravo and fenix3 (all of which I still own) will be lost forever. That would be very unfortunate.

FWIW, I still hold out a slim hope that we will see the older threads available again.

All of the sudden few weeks back my Fenix 3 battery life was cut in half. Ofc there's no forum, no support, no service center.

Never ever will I buy another Garmin product. Your customer support is still somewhere in the middle of 90'

where do US users go?

0 Alesr5 over 4 years ago in reply to gaijin

I m very dissaponted. They throw us to the recycle bin with all those threads that we write to be helpful to other Fenix 3 users and they do not give us even the posibility to access that information.

Really cursing you people.

I think, we can move to German Forum: https://forums.garmin.com/de/outdoor/outdoor-legacy/f/fenix-3-3-hr-1320073538

why on earth would they end of life a forum for older products? It only creates frustration for their support lines and load...vs people helping each other. Asinine and will make me seriously re-think buying another Garmin product after having been a vocal proponent and influencing many other buyers.
