1 articles · Updated · Notebookcheck.net · Aug 15Summary
- Beta 23.25 has begun rolling out over the air to Fenix 8, Fenix 8 Pro and related Garmin beta-program devices just two days after Beta 23.24.
- Garmin did not detail what changed in 23.25, instead reposting the 23.24 changelog, leaving testers without a clear explanation for the new build.
- Multiple Fenix 8 users on Garmin’s forums say frequent rebooting still affects the update, and some displays still fail to wake properly.
- That leaves the v23.xx beta cycle unresolved, with no clear timeline for a stable release based on these recent test builds.
