Garmin has unveiled its latest premium GPS smartwatch, the fēnix 8 MicroLED, now featuring a first-of-its-kind, high-resolution MicroLED display built for maximum clarity in any environment.
“The fēnix 8 series is changing the game for smartwatches with its first-ever ultra-bright MicroLED display to a smartwatch so users can see their maps, stats, health and wellness metrics and more like never before.” —Susan Lyman, Garmin Vice President of Consumer Sales and Marketing.
As the flagship multisport outdoor line, the fēnix series has always pushed wearable innovation. From the solar-powered fēnix 6 in 2020 to the fēnix 7 in 2022 with multi-band GNSS and an integrated LED flashlight, each generation has focused on advancing outdoor safety and pro-level performance. The new fēnix 8 MicroLED continues that streak as the first smartwatch to adopt a MicroLED display.
First-of-its-kind MicroLED display
The fēnix 8 MicroLED breaks new ground with the successful integration and mass production of MicroLED technology in a smartwatch. It features more than 400,000 individual LEDs capable of reaching up to 4,500 nits, making it the brightest smartwatch to date.
You get a roughly 15 percent wider color gamut, producing richer and more accurate colors, along with an ultra-wide viewing angle that keeps visuals sharp from any position. The display also offers stronger burn-in resistance and triple the durability, extending its lifespan while maintaining vibrant colors, high pixel density, and excellent visibility even under direct sunlight.
The fēnix 8 Series comes packed with Garmin’s full suite of performance, navigation, health, wellness, and connected features. These include endurance score, hill score, daily suggested workouts, preloaded TopoActive Maps, dynamic round-trip routing, the Garmin ECG app, sleep coach, safety and tracking features, and more.

The fēnix 8 – MicroLED is now available for PhP 121,290 in all Garmin stores and online.
