More than what I was expecting
on June 24, 2023
Posted by: Purplegreen
I've been using this for 2 months, and I am so far very pleased. I knew what I wanted, a device to track my runs and give me data-driven feedback, with simple consoles. My runs and rides are measurable, which make my activities a totally different thing.

buyers remorse
on July 15, 2023
Posted by: bummed
I replace my Forerunner 250 that I had forever. I have to say I am having buyers remorse. Functionality is great but the display is much harder to read with the permanent circle on upper right. Love to return for a partial refund and buy something else if they will allow it.

I like the watch but the text messages do not come through. All other alerts work but not texts. I have followed all directions and troubleshooting with no success. I will keep it but i am slightly disappointed.

Rubbish
on August 11, 2023
Posted by: Chippa
Had this watch for almost a year now and its never worked or synched correctly. I would not recommend any garmin products to any person ever. The whole garmin app is overreaching with permissions and data harvesting is a definite and real concern.

Great features

Instinct 2 tracks more health issues than my Vivoactive 3. I love the additional insights that gives. Disappointed that I can't find a way to have the time display change to a 24 hour clock

Good so far

I’ve had the watch now for about two months. It’s easy to live with and hold a charge for a very long time. I’m still not used to navigating, and some things that I thought would be intuitive, are not. i’m a little disappointed with the display at night time as it’s too dark to read, and requires that you increase the brightness which will shorten the battery life. Overall, I’m satisfied with the purchase and look forward to using its full potential.

Great for the outdoors

I started off about 3 years ago with a new instinct 1 and loved it. I am even happier with my new Instinct 2. The upgrades are fantastic and I couldn’t be happier.
