Garmin Fenix 7 Pro

The Garmin Fenix 7 Pro introduces some cool new tech to the Fenix 7 line, including a new Memory-in-Pixel display, a new bio-sensor, and more. Plus, all size options now come with a physical flashlight, and you don't have to pay loads extra for the privilege, either. The Fenix 7 Pro is more expensive than the standard version – not with the below deals, however!

Garmin Fenix 7

The Garmin Fenix 7 is a beast of a smartwatch and improves on the already excellent Fenix 6, which is a great achievement. Just like previous Fenix models, the Fenix 7 is big, bold and works well as an outdoor, running and triathlon watch. That said, very few people will be able to make the most of the thousand features it has.

Garmin Fenix 6 Pro

Garmin leapt and set out to improve their already excellent Garmin Fenix 5 range. The Garmin Fenix 6 Series has improved battery life, screen size and resolution, memory capacity, and features like PacePro and Body Battery. You will need to pay top dollar for all these features, though. Lucky for you, if there is a special offer on the Garmin Fenix 6, you will find it here.

Garmin Fenix 6x Pro Solar

From our review: "The Garmin Fenix 6X Pro Solar is completely impossible to pigeonhole, but rather brilliant too. Garmin has managed to integrate and make sense of many of the random bits of data from earlier models, decluttering the interface so that you get to what you want faster and easier.

The battery life here is market-leading, the coaching tools and sensors excellent, and the ability to pull on some Bluetooth headphones, hit go and start running in comfort is no small feat. What price fitness convenience?"

Garmin Fenix 5 Plus

Although Garmin has rolled out the Fenix 6 Series, that doesn't mean the Fenix 5 Plus watch series hasn't got a place in the running watch world. When it comes to outdoor activity, the Fenix 5 Plus still delivers, thanks to the colour TopoActive maps and built-in 3-axis compass as well as the onboard altimeter.

The Fenix 5 Plus also has ClimbPro ascent management feature and an up to 7 days battery life in smartwatch mode. Not to mention the internal storage for music and the watch being Garmin Pay ready.

Best Garmin Enduro deals

Garmin Enduro 2

The Garmin Enduro 2 is a beast of an ultrarunner's watch that boasts even longer battery life, full TOPO maps support, touchscreen functionality, insanely rugged yet premium construction, and more. Plus, Garmin added several new features for free since the launch and will probably add a bunch more later. The Enduro 2 is the new king of outdoor watches.

Garmin Enduro

From our review: "The Garmin Enduro is a future-proof GPS multisport watch that has an insanely-long battery life and some trail running-specific features that even non-trail runners will appreciate. If you are torn between the Fenix 6 and the Forerunner 945 and have this much money to spend on a running wearable, choose the Enduro instead. You won't be disappointed."

Garmin Quatix 6X Solar

For pleasure boaters with sizable craft, Garmin plotters and Fusion entertainment systems, the Garmin Quatix 6X Solar is an absolute no-brainer multisport watch buy. For dedicated coastal SUP/sailing/kayak folks, the Bluechart G3 mapping on offer here should be a convincer, and the battery life is compelling for absolutely anyone (as are the land-based activities, coaching tools and NASA-grade sensor array).

Best Garmin Instinct deals

Garmin launches Instinct Crossover hybrid smartwatch

Garmin Instinct Crossover

Garmin never shied away from releasing niche smartwatches, but the Instinct Crossover Solar is the most out-of-the-box Garmin watch to date. It's more expensive than the Instinct 2 Solar and offers very few upgrades apart from the analogue hands. For hardcore Garmin watch owners and collectors only. Unless you find a deal and manage to get it for cheaper.

Garmin Instinct Solar

The Instinct Solar builds on the rugged foundation of the original Instinct and adds solar charging and an updated Sony GPS chip, as well as battery management options. In theory, considering adequate sun exposure and setting the watch to battery-saver mode, the Garmin Instinct Solar can run indefinitely.

Garmin Instinct

The Garmin Instinct is still super popular, years after its initial release. It has a rugged exterior and is more affordable than a Fenix or an Enduro, even at RRP, let alone when there is a deal going on!

Garmin Forerunner 55

For beginner runners, I really wouldn’t recommend any other watch than the Forerunner 55: it’s light, capable, cheap and has more than enough features to track your runs with. The Forerunner 55 is the perfect wearable to guide you through the bumpy road that is in the early days of running training. It certainly gets the basics right!

Garmin Forerunner 245

The Forerunner 245 was designed with runners in mind – as the name would suggest. It might be one of the entry-level offerings from Garmin, but that doesn't mean it's not a competent running watch. On top of monitoring advanced running metrics, it also supports Garmin's adaptive training plan feature called Garmin Coach. With up to seven days of battery life in smartwatch mode, you can count on the Forerunner 245 not to die on you when you're out on the run.

Garmin Forerunner 255

The Garmin Forerunner 255 isn't just a running watch anymore – thanks to the addition of the triathlon sports mode, it's now a full-fledged triathlon watch. Among all the new features, heart rate variability stands out; it adds another layer to the extensive recovery and training features already included on the Forerunner 255. Not to mention the Race Widget and the new triathlon mode.

Garmin Forerunner 265

Garmin's mid-range running watch offers long battery life, dozens of helpful training and recovery features, exciting colour options, and a pretty AMOLED touchscreen display. The watch has plenty of new features and better sensors to justify the price for owners of older Garmin watches, especially with these deals!

Garmin Forerunner 745

The Garmin Forerunner 745 is an advanced GPS multisport smartwatch for runners and triathletes featuring dozens of built-in activity profiles, including triathlon, pool swimming, track running and more. The Forerunner 745 uses the same algorithm (from Firstbeat Analytics) to measure and estimate VO2 max, training load, training status and aerobic and anaerobic training effects as the Garmin Forerunner 945 and even has the same screen, yet it is cheaper than the flagship model.

Garmin Forerunner 945

On top of having all the features of the Forerunner 245, the Garmin Forerunner 945's battery can last up to two weeks in smartwatch mode and 10 hours in GPS mode. It also has a function called Training Status, which monitors and evaluates your training activity and recommends both rest and training according to your fitness levels. This running watch is Garmin Pay ready and uses a multi-network system (GPS, GLONASS and Galileo) to track location for ultimate precision.

Garmin Forerunner 955

The Garmin Forerunner 955 is a huge update from its predecessor. It offers a lot of extra features and newer sensors for almost the same money as the Forerunner 945. Not all new features are mind-blowing or even brand new, but all add to the overall feature-richness of the watch. Add in the new sensors and GPS chip, and you have yourself a fantastic triathlon watch that's a must-buy for any self-discerning triathlete.

Garmin Forerunner 965

The Garmin Forerunner 965 is everything we hoped the Forerunner 955 Solar would be and more. The watch uses the same sensors and features as its predecessor, but it's lighter and thinner than its direct predecessor. The new AMOLED display is bright and responsive, and the glance view is as good as it's always been. If you need an accurate multisport watch, the Garmin Forerunner 965 is a must-have.

Garmin Epix Gen 2

The Garmin epix (Gen 2) is the lovechild of the Fenix 6 Pro and the Venu 2 and combines handy outdoor and fitness features such as topographic maps and animated workouts with a premium smartwatch exterior. The AMOLED screen is a joy to look at and the battery life is brilliant, too; no wonder this watch has an epic price tag...

Garmin Venu 3

Billed as a capable all-rounder, the latest Venu 3 is about as close to a proper smartwatch as Garmin gets. It offers features like Garmin Pay, music from the wrist and smartphone notifications without turning its back on the brand’s fantastic fitness, health and wellness tracking functionality. Those looking for a discreet, easy-to-use wearable that hits a budgetary sweet spot and boasts a mammoth battery should add this one to the shopping list.

The AMOLED screen brings the widget view of the Garmin OS to life on the Garmin Venu 2. If you aren't keen on having a dedicated sports wearable wrapped around your wrist and appreciate a good-looking smartwatch that has actually useful health and fitness features, you'd be silly not to give the Garmin Venu 2 a go.

Garmin Venu

The Venu is Garmin’s answer to the Apple Watch and impresses with a striking AMOLED screen and the firm’s usual top-end fitness-tracking tech. It excels where regular smartwatches don’t – through some impressively detailed fitness and health tracking features, performance and battery life.

Well, Garmin has the solution for you in the form of the Garmin Venu Sq and Venu Sq Music. The Garmin Venu Sq Music Edition also has built-in storage for music: if you have a Spotify Premium subscription, you can load the songs onto the watch's memory and listen to them offline by pairing Bluetooth headphones to the watch.
