      The Garmin fēnix 6/6S Pro
      Garmin has recently expanded on its solar charging technology. Building on the success of their first solar charging multisport watch, the fēnix 6X Pro Solar and the new fēnix Pro Solar range allows fitness enthusiasts to do what they love for longer.
      The fēnix 6S Pro Solar and fēnix 6 Pro Solar are the newest members of the Garmin flagship multisport GPS smartwatch line. It comes armed with significantly increased battery life and new purpose-built functionality that include mountain biking, surfing and climbing activities.

      Featuring Garmin Power Glass™ solar charging lens and a customisable Power Manager mode, fēnix 6 Series — Solar Editions harness the power of the sun to stay on and remain performance-ready for weeks, so you have more on-wrist time* to enjoy your different running modes, fitness activities, training features, music streaming and much more. The Solar editions also include Advanced Sleep Monitoring, which provides a detailed breakdown of light, deep and REM sleep stages as well as Pulse Ox and respiration data. This can be viewed on a dedicated widget that includes your stress score and sleep insights. The latest also comes set with convenience features such as Garmin Pay™ and on-device music storage of up to 2,000 songs, allowing you to sync playlists from several of the most popular music services, no phone required. Need running pace guidance that knows the terrain? Check out the PacePro™ feature.
      Gamin is committed to developing products that enhance experiences and enrich lives, Garmin believes every day is an opportunity to innovate and a chance to beat yesterday. For more information, or to check out more watch-specific features, visit www.garmin.com/en-ZA/

      *The Solar devices use Garmin’s Power Glass watch lens to convert sunlight into battery power, extending time between charges. The solar charging is not designed to be used as the primary charging source nor is it to be used to achieve indefinite power. The solar feature will slowly charge a flat watch, but this is not the intended feature.
