Comparing to my previous solar taxis 8, I found it very inconvenient due to battery life. Should have gotten a second solar version.

Not out of this world
I bought this watch a couple weeks ago my wrist started to break out with the watch band so I had to buy a titanium band. The watch lost connection with garmin connect so I had to factory reset it in order to connect it again. I’m thinking I should have gotten the solar powered instead the battery drains very fast and I’m outside way more then inside due to the nature of my job.

Great looking but missing key ECG function.
I am a longtime fan and user of Garmin. Since 2007. I very much like the appearance of thr Tactix 8 in Olive drab color. The reason I purchased. However, I did not realize that it did not have the ECG app option. Being that I have previously has afib, I decided to return. I have a fenix 8 and a Tactix 7. Love them both

Cerakote Cool Grey
A feature rich watch with a large screen. I love the cerakote coating and its color. Highly useful for rucking as its large customizable display gives me all the information I need.

Love the features of the Tactix 8
I bought this watch as my 4th installment of Fenix line. I will say that the sensor has from time to time caused an irritation and hot spot on my wrist. I have adjusted and read reviews to understand the "burn" sensation that occurs. I'm still happy with it, and will continue to wear. I just take it off at night to allow my wrist to breath.

Great upgrade from Tactix 7
Great upgrade from the Tactix 7. The display is vibrant and the buttons are very responsive. I am really enjoying the new watch and how well it integrates data.

For the $$ / function almost have to pass.
Why? We'll compare it to some popular watches; the effective screen size is small. Effective, meaning the actual size being used to display. The voice response and integration with Google Assistant are not possible. In fact, the voice commands don't work at all as far as I can tell. For the price, it's not impressive to say the least. Last comment on menu organization: there are about six ways to reach each command, so the logical menu layout is a bit of a maze, depending on where you start. Phone integration is a little weak, first Garmin I've owned. It's not a new platform, so I'm not sure what progress has been made from the previous versions, still a long road to catch up.
