Garmin introduces the fēnix 5 series

[Spinnekop]

I might consider selling the 3HR for the 5x......

But I suspect the $$$ difference won't make up for the added functionality......

5x and the 3 is the same size

if it was me I wouldn't bother.

 

I had the normal three. No heart rate.

 

That was my main reason for upgrading.

Having played with a fenix 5 a few hours and did a ride...and coming from a 3, im a bit underwhelmed...

mostly the same as the 3 bar the below.

 

Slightly and hardly noticeable increase in speed of the UI.

 

Slightly and hardly noticeable increase in screen resolution.

 

Few software tweaks that are cool such as the shortcut menu, alarms, performance condition menu.

 

Like the fact that i can bluetooth sensors.

 

But the biggest difference to me is actually a negative... its size. Feels much smaller than my 3, band feels like a ladies band and screen is noticeably smaller.

This is a normal 5, so il probably stick to the 3 or if i get a 5x cheap try that.
