        Don’t remember if links are allowed (photos not) but on Reddit there’s photo of Race 3 box (or race3, the ,S" could be not on screen) I have no idea if that’s AI or not, for me seems quite legit. Also new watchface quite similar to Run 2 and last NEXUS watchface.

        Name of thread ,Need a new watch, how close is Race 3 ??" and photo with label ,Oktoberfest". Decide on Your own if it’s fake or not 😛

            For anyone not keen on digging, this is the photo that was posted on Reddit claiming that the Race 3 will be released during (?) Oktoberfest.

              Picture is cropped on purpose. Most likely 3S, not 3 😉

                    No thanks on another “S” variant. I SMASHED the like button in the survey when asked about a bigger watch with a bigger battery.

                      @stromdiddily Why not? I think there should be a big and small for all watches!

                        @stromdiddily Its precisly the opposite for me, I have small-ish wrist (165mm circonference, small ish for a man, but imagine for a woman), and 43-45mm is already on the bigger side.
                        There’s already huge 49mm watches available, we need smaller, good quality watches, and the Race S is subpar (not Sapphire for example).

                        Maybe a Race 3S soon ?

                            Is this really a need? Or is it just a feel better thing?

                            I had non-Sapphire Fenix watches for 4 years and the Race S close to 2 years. Hadn’t have a single scratch on the glass during that time…

                              @2b2bff my Race S has some scratches. But it depends on the sports you do. Rock climbing for example is extremely likely to damage the screen…

                                @Egika indeed, but this applies to Sapphire as well…

                                  @matram flashlight - it’s the one thing I really miss from my Garmin Fenix (particularly red flashlight)…I used it almost every night as I am old enough to frequently need a night-time bathroom break!

                                    @2b2bff not according to my experience.
                                    My Race S is pretty scratched, while my Vertical and Vertical 2 screens are spotless. I use all watches in the same way.

                                      @HonzaS I tried Garmin Connect+ for 5 days (free trial) and realised it was hot garbage. I pay for Claude Pro for Ai coaching but would rather pay Suunto instead if their subscription plan was actually any good (but core features need to remain free)…

                                        @Egika maybe it is not as easy, but it can happen: https://www.reddit.com/r/GarminFenix/comments/1wrd53d/psa_sapphire_does_scratch/

                                        But as I said, I wonder whether most people just want it, rather than need it…

                                            @2b2bff Definitely a need, I had a few watches before my 9PP, and all of them had their screen scratched before their 6 months, whereas my 3 years old 9PP is looking brand new.
                                            At that point, a non-sapphire watch is a no-buy, no matter how good the rest is
