The Standard Edition

The watch is standard size and has a sunlight-visible display that saves battery life, making it run longer than the AMOLED option.

AMOLED edition

Thanks to the AMOLED display, the screen has better resolution; however, it reduces battery life.

The watch is made of expensive materials, including a durable Sapphire crystal lens and a titanium bezel that makes it the lightest among the three.

AMOLED has Garmin's LED flashlights and a skin temperature sensor, unlike the standard edition.

The Biggest. Solar Edition

The watch has two straps in the package, the heavier silicone and the titanium, which reduces the weight. Because of its bigger dimensions, the watch is the heaviest.

Solar optionality adds to battery life, and the lens combines scratch-resistance with sunlight into battery power conversion. The Solar edition is made of expensive materials.

For a bigger wrist

To sum up

The quatix 7 47mm – Standard Edition is smaller with longer battery life and has a lower price tag.

The quatix 7 47 mm Pro Premium combines the lightest weight, expensive materials, and the AMOLED display; however, it reduces battery life.

The biggest quatix 7X 51mm – Solar Edition lasts longer, is made of expensive and durable materials, and is the heaviest.
