Garmin has announced the flagship GPS smartwatch "Fēnix 7" (Phoenix Seven).The lineup of "Fēnix 7x", "Fēnix 7", and "Fēnix 7s" for the function and size, and a total of 13 models are available.It was released on January 20, and the price is wide, from 93,500 yen to 170,500 yen.In this article, we will focus on the points evolved from the previous model "Fēnix 6" series.
The "Fēnix" series is positioned as a flagship of Garmin's GPS smartwatch, but unlike a series for professional athletes and pure outdoor, "business, which is usually done while doing work and performing full -scale activities and training.A series that targets the layer called "athlete".Leather bands and metal bands are also available so that they can be worn in business scenes while installing state -of -the -art technology and materials.

The first is the specification of solar power generation, which has been extended to about twice.
The second is the GPS positioning function, which is equipped with a mode that can receive two frequency bands, increasing accuracy and speed.
The third is a display that can be operated, so you can set on and off.
The fourth is the mounted map, and after changing the type of map to be installed, the additional map can be downloaded directly via Wi-Fi.
fēnix 7の新機能(同時発表のepixシリーズを含む)fēnix 6からの進化ポイント(同時発表のepixシリーズを含む)fēnix 7/epixの比較表fēnix 7全体のラインナップThe biggest feature is that it has strengthened solar power generation and greatly increased the extension time.Similarly, Fēnix 7 cannot cover all power consumption by solar power generation, but is equipped with solar power generation as a function that can extend the operating time of charged batteries in advance.
Fēnix 7 is equipped with a new solar power panel.The fēnix 6 solar power generation model of the previous series was "dual power", which is equipped with a ring -shaped solar panel on the outer periphery of the display (inside the bezel) to extend the battery operation time, but the new model is a ring -shaped model.In addition to the solar panel, the entire inside of the sapphire glass is also covered with a see -through solar panel.This is called "power sapphire glass" or "sapphire dual power".Although the power generation efficiency itself is more efficient for a ring -shaped solar panel, a see -through solar panel is added to the entire glass surface, which significantly increases the amount of power generation and enables large extension.

マルチGNSSとGNSSマルチバンドに対応、早く正確な測位が可能になるThe display will be equipped with a touch operation function that supported the Vivo series etc. in the Fēnix series for the first time.During activities and training, the buttons that can be operated more reliably are more preferred, and Fēnix 7 has three on the left side and two on the right side.On the other hand, in scenes such as everyday use and data recording and management, it can be operated more lightly by touch operation.The touch operation itself can be turned on and off, and you can choose according to your preference.
The map to be installed as standard is the "Japanese Details Top Tropical Map" (JAPAN DKG MAP).Detailed road information is also described for urban areas, with topographic map data entering the Geographical Institute approved.In addition, the standard is a "ski map" that allows you to check the 2,000 ski slopes and the difficulty of the slopes around the world, and the "golf map", which displays 42,000 golf courses worldwide in full -color.
Overseas maps can download the world map of 11 continents, including North America, South America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, and Africa.It is possible to download directly using Wi-Fi mounted on this unit without going through a PC.However, since the data is large, it is necessary to keep in mind that it takes time to download.In addition, since the storage size differs depending on the model, if multiple maps cannot be downloaded, it is necessary to delete them.
Paid maps include "CITY NAVIGATOR PLUS" and "Japan Climbing Topographic Map" (TOPO10M) as the download version.The price is from 14,000 yen.
The optical sensor mounted on the back cover has evolved into the fourth generation.It has been enhanced to six sensors to six sensors, so that it can be measured more accurately.
センサーが6つになった第4世代の光学式心拍センサーIt also provides a new function "real -time stamina" indication for runners and cyclists.This is a function that displays pace allocation, etc., so that stamina can be used up and goals based on the amount of stamina of the user who accumulate data in regular training and estimated the stamina of the user.Calculated from multiple items such as heart rate and VO2MAX, how much can be run at the current pace, and the potential stamina remaining amount is displayed in real time.

In addition, in detail, the bezel has become a neat design by using metal parts that integrate the bezel and the lag surface and transferring the screws to the rug.The button used to start the measurement is also a guard.
In the user interface, katakana, which had been half -width, has become full -width.
Only Fēnix 7X is equipped with an LED light that can be used like a flashlight.In addition to being used at night such as camping, it is equipped with a Morse signal SOS blinking pattern.It also has a red light mode that is gentle on the eyes.This LED light also has a light -emitting function for night running.While running, swinging your arm forward, white, and lighting back when you shake it back, so you can identify the orientation of the runner.
