double click

Former Member over 4 years ago

Dear all,

I bought a Garmin 6pro last week October 2020 and buttons on le left are all double clicking with the down one the worst. Those at the right are ok though. What should i do? ask for a change/fix or keep it? I bought the device in Italy but live in Spain so not sure if a change is possible now and Garmin Iberia will only fix the watch . I am not sure if this double clicking issue will eventually result in a more serious issue with buttons getting prematurely damaged. Any advice?

Thank you all, Sergio

I'd suggest waiting it out for a bit and see how the rest of the watch performs, and if you can live with the buttons. If there is another problem, then consider returning/exchanging it. I have two buttons that double click. It annoyed me at first, but the rest of my watch works well so I didn't want to risk exchanging it. Based on the forums for Fenix 5/6 it's a common issue, so an exchange may not solve the problem. You get used to it after a while and I haven't found it affects the watch after having it for a year.

That is very true and thanks for the suggestion. It is annoying but will wait a bit longer befor drawing any conclusion. So far the watch behavior was ok and if I will get used to it i will live with it

Thanks again, Sergio
