In case anyone else is wondering about the battery life of the new Fenix 5 plus series when used with gps but not music (i.e. how many of us would use the watch in a tri), I contacted Garmin via chat and below is the response I received.
Okay, going from the lowest to the highest, the 5S Plus would have approximately 11 hours of GPS mode without music, the 5 Plus would have about 18 hours, and the 5X plus would have about 32. This is the optimal life, and several other features can affect it such as Bluetooth connection, backlight, watch face, etc
