The Garmin Fenix 8 is like an onion: you can keep peeling back layers to find hidden depths, but also some aspects that make it hard to justify the $1,100 price tag.

I fully agree, I'm not impressed yet. As a very early adopter, and having upgraded every other version starting at 2, I was hoping for a more polished product.

Unfortunately, in typical Garmin fashion they're way too many things that are unfinished, unpolished, incomplete, not functioning, or not well thought out. Do the designers and product developers actually use these products?

I like it much better than my 6 Pro, but has many of the same problems.

One of my pet peeves: is it really that hard to make an accurate easy to use, FUNCTIONAL hydration tracker?!?

And why after all this time this information from different devices in the Garmin universe not transfer over well and influence recommendations more accurately?

There have been several updates already, I'm hoping more updates are coming soon with not just more added functionality that probably won't work properly anyway, but actually completing and improving what there is and especially core functions!
