It can be overwhelming when you first look at the range of Garmin watches, if you have never owned one, or not looked in to the watches before, it can be difficult to know which one to go for! Firstly, we have the size differences, these vary from each Garmin Fenix 5, so you can chose from the Fenix 5<\/a><\/em>, 5S<\/em><\/a> or 5X<\/em><\/a>. The Fenix 5 is the down the middle model, with a case size of 47mm, whereas the smaller 5S has a 42mm case, and the larger 5X sits at 51mm, these may seem large, especially when the 42mm is the smaller option! However, with the amount of technology included inside the watch, and the functions that are used on the screen, the Garmin Fenix 5 range actually benefits from this larger case, and helps you when trying to access and read the dial!<\/p>\n

The base 5 models feature so much, including full-colour display, GPS\/GLONASS navigation, activity profiles for multiple sports and adventures, performance widgets for stats at your fingertips, an altimeter, heart-rate monitor, 3-axis compass, interchangeable wrist bands, lactate threshold and other monitors, ascent and descent running tracking, customisable watch fascias, and more.<\/p>\n

The Garmin Fenix 5 Plus Series<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The Fenix 5 Plus series takes the same base model as the 5, 5S or 5X, and adds more. More technology, more usability and more functionality. This is not to say that the base models are not worth having, as they are already jam-packed with fantastic tech, and perfect for most people. The Plus is for those who want that bit more, a 500 song capacity, to give you access to phone-free listening, wrist based heart rate monitoring technology, enhancing its performance as an activity and sports monitoring watch, and also with smart notifications and the Garmin Pay contactless payment technology.<\/p>\n
