The Garmin Fenix 5 Plus comes with a huge price. So naturally the biggest question is, is it worth it?
Garmin is still the market leader when it comes to GPS and navigation technology. Indeed Garmin’s new Fenix 5 Plus series features built-in routable topographical maps, which are simply the best mapping you can get on a watch (see image, left).
It’s a little more open to debate, but Garmin’s running features, too, are top of the pile, especially when it comes to monitoring running technique, which is far superior to their main rivals, the more user-friendly and stylish Suunto.
