Hello, I want to report a reproducible microphone problem on the Fenix 8.
Symptoms:
-
When recording a Voice Note, the audio is almost entirely noise, and my voice is extremely faint, as if the mic is not capturing from the correct input.
-
Voice Commands never trigger, likely because the watch cannot detect speech.
-
During phone calls, however, the microphone works perfectly.
This suggests the microphone hardware is fine, but the firmware/software path used for Garmin features (voice notes + commands) is not functioning correctly.
We paid for these features, and they’ve been unusable for months. Can Garmin confirm whether this is a known bug and whether a fix is planned?
Thanks.
