Add to that the usual complement of swim/bike/run, and I’ve got a gaggle of test data to work with. I travelled specifically to the peaks of the French Alps to test this watch and the also recent entrant Suunto 9 on fairly demanding trails. I’ve been using three final production loaner units for more than two months now across a wide variety of landscapes and sports. Atop all that are a pile of new software features, most heavily focused on the hiking realm, but also applicable to other sports as well. Meanwhile, the higher end Fenix 5X Plus also gets new Pulse Oximetry hardware/software solution that’s even likely to be approved as a medical device. Additionally there’s new Galileo GPS support for higher accuracy, new smart notification privacy features, and locking the GPS altitude to the elevation data in the maps themselves, among other features. Today Garmin announced the new Fenix 5 Plus series, which takes the existing Fenix 5/5S/5X and injects full onboard color mapping, onboard music, and contactless payments.
