If you’re a fitness freak or sports enthusiast who love the outdoors, the new Garmin fenix 6 series should pique your interest. Garmin’s next generation flagship GPS multisport smartwatch lineup boasts a Power Manager for longer battery life, and the innovative Body Battery energy monitoring feature that helps you manage your workout schedules, rest times and sleep.
