Integrated into the Fēnix 8 is a built-in LED light that has a range of light intensities, including a red safety light and a strobe mode that matches your steps as you run, and built-in speaker and microphone are handy for pairing with your smartphone whether you choose to listen to your favourite playlist as you train, use your smartphone’s voice command to send messages, or answer phone calls.

Loaded with multi-band GPS navigation, set your desired routes with ease and get suggestions on those that will bring you back within a certain timeframe. This feature also calculates your pace, distance and speed during multiple sports whether you are running, swimming, skiing or cycling and even contributes to safety features such as live tracking, dual grid co-ordinates and Find My Phone so you can share a location or find your way back should you become lost or injured. Get access to more useful information too, with pre-loaded maps of golf courses and ski resorts across the globe - plan everything ahead of time and keep to the map, so you don’t stray.
