A new version of some of Garmin’s more expensive smartwatches has been introduced. Beta Version 23.16, which is being distributed globally through its Beta Program, comes ahead of a far more significant stable software update that seems to be imminent.
After revealing the August 2025 Feature Update a little more than a week ago, Garmin has just upgraded a number of its devices. In summary, since releasing its most recent Feature Update, the business has released new stable upgrades for the Fenix 8, Forerunner 970, Instinct 2, Instinct 3, and related smartwatches. Additionally, it has produced significant modifications for its cycle computers, such as the Edge 1050 from the previous year.
Through a new beta update for the Enduro 2, Epix 2, Fenix 7, Marq Gen 2, and Quatix 7, Garmin has now resorted to its more expensive, older smartwatches. In June, Garmin published System Software 22.06, the most recent stable update for these smartwatches. As it prepares to release a new stable build at some point, the corporation has released a number of beta updates in the interim.
Following a wait of more than three weeks, Garmin has begun releasing a new beta version, known as Beta Version 23.16. According to reports, Beta Version 23.16, the fourth v23.xx update to date, fixes two major problems that can lead to problems with CT10 sensor pairing and Hunt activity navigation. When Garmin will complete v23.xx development is still unknown. But given its recent modifications, the shift from v23.08 to v23.16 indicates the corporation may be on the verge of releasing a stable build.
