Tactix 8 features

What do you think? What functions will the tactix 8 have ? Will it still have the aviation features of the tactix 7 ?

Without LTE, how else is my family supposed to be able to follow along with my progress while I'm invading a foreign country?

This is the Fenix forum...

Which is exactly where we should be discussing the tactix - so, what's your point?

There is no separate tactix forum, the tactix 7 has always been discussed…

You are in a thread that deals with a tactical (military) watch. Are you telling me that such a watch should have LTE ?

Yes, was thinking the same, wtf. You want your watch to be tracked…

If it doesn't finally come with LTE then all the aviation features such as aviation weather etc are useless

Why are they useless? Are they currently useless on the existing Tactix?

You forgot to show your smartphone in that image, which is required for these features to work. And if you don't like to use a smartphone with your $1500 smartwatch (is it really that smart then?), these features are not functioning.

We are not talking about a fenix here.

But what if I want to light up my squad's location by fruitlessly trying to ping a Verizon LTE tower for a weather update... in the middle of the desert.. in a hostile foreign country? I mean it's getting frosty out here and I need to know if the boys need to put on their camo jerseys tonight!

Everyone knows the Tactix is useless without LTE.

4389125 will certainly explain that.

Disagree with speaker and mic deleted. They should/would work well alongside atacs chest mounted electronics.

Yes, was thinking the same, wtf. You want your watch to be tracked by SIGINT. Makes no sense.

Only thing I can come up that he needs MARQ Aviator with LTE not Tactix.
