Brilliant sports tracking, Full-colour maps and on-the-go routing, Spotify support
Heart rate accuracy is hit-and-miss, Expensive
Garmin threw everything at the wall with the Fenix 5 Plus and most of it has stuck, with the new navigation and music features both having been terrifically implemented. Garmin Pay is still a bit of a dud and it's a shame battery has taken a hit compared...

Fairly non-intimidating design, Garmin Connect is great for serious workout tracking, A fab array of features inc. Spotify support
Very expensive, Proper hike-ready maps are expensive, Garmin Pay support is limited at present
The Garmin Fenix 5 Plus is a classic example of a buy your heart and head may react to in different ways. Heart says: it's clearly brilliant. I can use it for just about every kind of sport or exercise, bar moon walks. It's a great normal watch and has a...
Hard wearing, Stylish, rugged design, Huge range of multi-sport features
High price, Reduced battery life
When it comes to multisport watches, the refreshed Fenix is about as capable as they come, with new features like built-in music and contactless payments along with fully routable color topo maps. We'd like to have seen more battery and perhaps power and...

If you're looking for an all-action sports watch that tracks everything you could possibly need, does so reliably and consistently, and lasts an age, then there's nothing better than the Fenix 5 Plus. It tracks a plethora of sports and activities, is buil...
Very large, Music streaming downloads not enabled everywhere
It's a large watch, but one that offers a huge amount of tracking of both fitness and sport - it's a chunky beast on the wrist, and expensive too, but if you're a fan of Fenix then you'll want to check this out...

Optical HR still iffy, Controls still sometimes confuse, Battery life gets a cut
Garmin refreshes its Fenix 5 with some welcome new features. Full TOPO maps give this more appeal to explorers of the great outdoors, while new smart features will enhance workouts by letting you leave your phone at home. And of course it's still overflow...
Ok, so that is an in-depth over view of the Garmin Fenix 5 Plus. But is it worth it? There are a lot of very cool sounding additions with the new Garmin uber watch, but as we've seen with things such as Garmin Pay, currently they are in the very early sta...

Abstract: Just a week ago, Garmin has announced the launch of its Garmin Fenix 5 Plus line of watches, successors to its premium line of Fenix multi-sport watches. Built with the toughest materials, to the most exacting standards, and packed with the best features...
Abstract: There's a reason why the new Garmin Fenix 5 Plus watches aren't named the Fenix 6 to last year's Fenix 5. Garmin sees them as complementary products and will continue selling the Fenix 5 family alongside this year's Fenix 5 Plus watches.The new Fenix 5 P...
