Does the Fenix 8 Solar need to be pointed at the sun to charge?

No — the solar cells harvest any ambient light, including indirect sunlight and bright indoor light. Direct sunlight maximises harvest rate but any light exposure contributes.

Can I wear the Fenix 8 Sapphire Solar for scuba diving?

Yes — 100m water resistance means it is rated for recreational scuba diving. It has a dedicated dive mode for tracking depth and dive time.

What is the difference between Sapphire Solar and AMOLED Fenix 8?

Sapphire Solar: transflective MIP display, solar charging, better for multi-day outdoor endurance, superior direct sunlight readability, scratch-proof lens. Glass AMOLED: vivid colour display, better for daily wear and map readability in normal light, no solar charging. Same titanium/sapphire construction available on both.
