One feature that is noticeably missing from this list is something called SatIQ. We are looking forward to this feature. What exactly does it do, you might be wondering.
This is new functionality that has recently been made available on
the latest Alpha software version for the Fenix 7 and Epix 2 watches. And it sounds like it will be very useful. Presumably, all Garmin watches with dual-frequency GNSS will ultimately get the feature.
SatIQ is a technology that aims to preserve the battery life on your watch while not compromising GPS accuracy. It does this by figuring out the optimal GPS mode based on your current environment. So instead of keeping your watch on the Multiband GNSS option which is the most precise but also most battery hungry, you can choose AutoSelect in the settings on your device.
