Garmin claims battery life in smartwatch-only mode is rated at up to 46 days which factors in the Enduro 2’s solar charging panel. The battery saver mode extends those values up to 550 days. The watch comes with multiband GNSS with SatIQ – a useful feature that only selects the most power-efficient GPS signal in a bid to extend battery life. The watch also supports Garmin Pay.

Pricing is set at $1,100 and the watch is already available on Garmin’s website.
