@@PascalMarquisUnbox that's a good habit, actually. Cause we usually read it when something is already broken or there is a really comprehensive issue :)
Yes. It let you learn a lots of stuff about the watch. But I actually read it because it's kind of my job to do it. Otherwise, i'm just like almost everyone and don't even look at it.
Thanks for the upload and quick overview. I especially like seeing it against the Fēnix 7. I had the Tactix Delta until the Fēnix 7 came out. I always liked the look of the Tactix more because of the bezel and the black. I don’t mind the Fēnix 7 because the bezel is a bit thinner like the Tactix. Great watches, even though I use 5% of the features.
Very nice video. Thanks for the great closeup of the watch. It seems like the watchface is smaller due the solar ring. I love the flashlight but I’ll stick to my Delta. Keep up the good work 👊🏼
I will have to double check about the resolution but I'm pretty sure the resolution on the 7 is better than the delta. But it is still of the same size. The difference in the look is mainly due to the fact they chop in the bezel to give place to the solar panel.
You are right Thomas, it's the very same size and resolution from Tactix Delta, Tactix 7 and Fenix 7X. However the screen is definitively more fluid on F7 and T7 then TD.
This is the Garmin Tactix 7 "Pro" Edition for anyone wondering. It has the Solar ring & Nylon Band. The normal Non-Pro don't come with Solar & Nylon band.
Not had chance to watch yet but can you run through the screens that Garmin had supplied with the watch. I like the analogue display of the tactix delta which I own and would like something similar on the 7 👍
I was unaware that an extra set of straps were included. I have found that the Garmin rubber straps are very comfortable, and more appropriate for water use. Nylon straps will slightly stretch in water. I am coming from the Instinct model, looking for a bigger screen/dial. Good detailed video. It was helpful. Thank you.
I’m in the market for an upgrade on my 5X plus. I’m tempted to the nice amoled screen on the Epix but the 7x got the flashlight. I’m also very interested by the aviation capabilities on the Tactix7. However the screen looks washed out on it? Great video showcase. Looking forward for your first impressions video. Great job👍
Hi Antoine. To my eye the screen of the F7 and T7 look the same. But yes it's a huge to choose between a beautiful amoled screen and the flashlight. I love both, no more one than the other.
Ahah. The Fenix 7 still should have a great reselling price. Garmin always come out the Fenix and the all the model that are nearly identical a bit later. We then should see the new MARQ model comming out.
@@PascalMarquisUnbox True, especially considering they are all out of stock in most places and I have the black 7X which is even harder to find for some reason.
Man same happen to me. I finally bit the bullet and brought the tactix delta solar in Jan. Now they dropped the T7 with touch screen and such. I ordered the T7 pro. But now I gotta see if I could sell the tactix delta solar
Best unboxing video I have watched on the Tactix 7 series. Showing the product and some features up close and not having to listen to a voice. Excellent. I'm going to scratch around your channel and see what else you have here.
Hi Mark, Thank you for your comment. I will record a first impression video in the next few days and I will take do a quick overview of that feature just for you. Thank you for the idea. See you soon. 😉
Oh yes. The button on the tactix feal SO MUCH BETTER than the Fenix 7. They feal to be the very same than on the Delta to me and I loved thoses button.
Screen looks smaller on the 7 compared to the Delta. I guess this is an optical illusion right? I don’t like how the thicker solar panel looks on the 7th gen and same as you, I like the thicker Bezel on my Delta. Don’t know if it’s worth to update just for battery life and a flashlight… I’ve had my Delta for a year so might just still wait.
Thank you for your comment Fernando. If I was not buying all thoses watch to review it, I would keep my good old Delta. But still, it feal like a great upgrade... But I don't think it worth the upgrade for most people, Espacially if you already have the Delta witch is insanely good.
Hi Chris. I would go straight to the new 7. The touch screen is fully optional. You can disable it and never use it if you would like. Take a look at the video for some comparasion : ruclips.net/video/gWFeMrH5a_s/видео.html
Hi Yunus, well it's the very same glass. They use that name few years ago as the Tactic Delta was the first Garmin Watch to combine Sapphire Crystal and solar charging. They both are as durable.
Hi Pascal, nice video. I will have mine next week. How wide is the bezel on T7 and on TD, is the difference big? For me the bezel without the screws looks smoother and still very cool. I do not like the Fenix design at all. But I have not already held T7 in my hands, only have seen the videos and pictures.
Hi Jan. I think the Delta was looking better because of the bigger bezel. I did not mesure but you can't miss it. It really look less rugged. That doesn't mean it is however.
If you are not military, only the look and the color of the flash light. I will do a first impression video soon with comparasion with the Fenix 7X. Stay tune. 😉
I didn't see a feature that make it blink from a color to an other but yes it can blink white or green. It's the very same light pattern that you find on the Fenix, but the color is green instead of red.
Okay, nice unboxing and yet... yes, I would have preferred to hear your thoughts vocalized. Looking forward to your actual review. So, I must know this: how in the world were you able to get the Garmin Tactix 7 so quickly over yonder in France? Does your cousin work for Garmin?
Ahah! Yes born and raised in Canada. You probably tought I was french because I do speak french. I'm in that part of Canada that speak french. The province of Quebec. 😉
Looks like the screen is just as dim and difficult to see as the Delta yes? Was hoping the touch screen would make the screen brighter but if they’re still using sapphire glass the display will always be hard to see indoors or lower light environments.
It look the same yes. Of course the gorilla glass look more transparant, but I would never buy a watch at this price that is not sapphire. Imagine scratch it at this price...
@@PascalMarquisUnbox I agree. I love how strong the sapphire glass is. I’ve accidentally banged my Delta against things and thought for sure the glass would be scratched but it never is. I just wish they could figure out how to make it more transparent. I LOVE the Tactix watches. My only issue is the lack of visibility in lower light settings.
At this point I think it's a question of taste. I personally prefer the look of the Tactix. Inside, if your are not military, it's the very same thing.
Hi Jeff. Unfortunately on the standard model, they replace the solar panel by a simple black inside bezel with bar and text. So you don't have a bigger screen nor a bigger bezel the Delta.
@@PascalMarquisUnbox Oh yes, I’m very familiar. But on my 7XSS that ring is extra reflective and even at slight off angle viewing it is prominent while the rest of the screen is hazy. I’m hoping without the solar layer it will be more visible like my Delta.
Hi Jones. You got a better battery, better solar ring, newer HR sensor, stronger processor as everything is smoother and faster and you got the flash light. If I was a regular user instead of a reviewer, I don't think I would upgrade from the delta to 7 but only you know. 😉
Burning question here as I have asked a couple of RUclipsrs and they seem to think that that the tactix 7 and 7X are DLC coated ... Are they ? And more specifically is the Tactix 7 Sapphire model ... Which is the one I intend to buy...
I'm not 100% sure but I think the tactix is the only one with DLC. Anyway you can find the information on the spec page of the garmin page of any watch. About the sapphire, every tactix model is sapphire.
I see that your Tactix 7 also experiences a little bit of the blue hue that everyone hates lol. So does mine. Garmin has told me that the Tactix 7 standard does not have the hue at all. I’ve considered exchanging to the standard model because it’s so annoying.
@@PascalMarquisUnbox ruclips.net/video/s1MEQWRsr-o/видео.html here you can see it Pascal. I was so happy when i got my 6x that it was the good one without that blueish backlight
Hoayo gozaimas Ricardo! 😉 It may take few month before you see it in stores or online store. Actually the only place you can get it is from garmin website. See the first link in the description.
I agree with you, the Delta was looking better. But they had to make space for the solar panel. They had the choice to cut between the bezel or the screen.
This isn't the review he does an in depth review after the initial showing, honestly it's nice to have someone who shuts up and let's us look at it first before blabbling off
Ahah! Thank you Fenner. Like you said, on every unboxing, I never say anything. Instead I do close up of the product with a very good camera so you can feal the product. Over that if you pay attention, you can ear the touch of the product. Everything is made so you can feal it. I will then do a first impression video, and later a complete deep review of everything you might need to know about it.
@@PascalMarquisUnbox OK donc tu me confirme que toi aussi tu préfères l'esthétique de la Delta... Est-ce que tu crois que la Delta est aussi plus robuste et solide que la Tactix7?
If we only talking about look, I personally prefer the Delta as it has a bigger bezel. They shrink the bezel on the 7 to leave place to the solar panel.
Actually quite a lot inside and on front. Sure it's based on the same look but it's far to be the same watch. You even get the flash light. But if we are only talking about look, I think the Delta look better as the bezel is bigger.
Neo from Matrix could envy how fast you read the documentation ;)

Same screen size and resolution of the delta. The bezel is smaller on this to accommodate for the extra solar ring

I have just opened the box: T7 Pro Solar is awesome watch!
Had epic 2 for a year and loved it but now getting tactixs 7 pro aswell. Cant get over how sexy this watch is.
Ahah yea! That is the best looking one! :)
This is the Garmin Tactix 7 "Pro" Edition for anyone wondering. It has the Solar ring & Nylon Band.
The normal Non-Pro don't come with Solar & Nylon band.
Interesting that it comes with "old" silicone bands.. not the newer Fenix 7/Epix 2 silicone band design.
You are right I didn't realized it. I think I prefer the old one. But I prefer by far the Nylon one.
I’ve had Delta for a while now and decided to buy the Tactix 7 one hour after the release time, can’t wait for it to arrive 💪
Is there much difference besides touch screen?
What version did you decide to get? Because standard tactix 7 has saphire screen and solar version has power saphire I cant decide which one to get.
@@sleepzou went with the tactix 7 over the delta solar
I just got it today, it’s much more comfortable than the delta. The Garmin wallpapers are cool, touch screen is convenient. Definitely better.
@@tburka91 awesome, I’ve ordered mine and can not wait 👌
