By the fenix 6 solar or FR 955?

Hi,

im considering buying fenix 6 solar. I just had the 6s and found it to be a bit too small (160mm wrist). So, I was going to order fenix 6 solar but I heard that it will come with the same screen as fenix 6 and released within April. Is this true and would you buy fr or fenix?

  • Yeh. Coros is really a promising new brand. They have good batterylife, great pricing. And they do support older devices by backporting new features.

    The only thing garming knows to do is keep adding features for the sake of the length of the feature list (for marketing purposes).

    Well, for now I couldn't care less when a new device will come. My 4 year old forerunner 935 still works and suits my needs. Batterylife is down quite a bit, but new models don't have any need to have new features. 

  • I completely agree with you, new Garmin products have a lot of SW bugs, some HW and they cost too much. In November 2018 I bought FR645M, a complete disappointment a lot of SW and HW bugs (wasted money), November 2020 passed to 945 and I am delighted (500 euros instead of 600). Garmin uses its customers as beta testers without paying them, indeed they are the ones who lose out because the new products have very high prices, not to mention the completely unprepared assistance here in Italy, you ask them for apples and they answer pears, only here on the forum they can be found the solutions thanks to some very knowledgeable users and Garmin-Brooks.

  • I had original Fenix 6 pro and just picked up a 955 and love the size. 955 much more comfortable to wear as well
