Exactly what I was looking for
on April 15, 2025
Posted by: Bogart
This Smart Watch is exactly what I was looking for in a watch. I have a Garmin Approach S1, a Garmin Vivomove HR, and an Approach S20. Each one of these watches provided information that I wanted to keep track of, but they couldn't do both the golf and health stats at the same time. Then came along the Instinct 2 and this watch does everything. From giving me a morning report, to tracking my sleep, tracking just about everything going and above all I can wear it for Golf. I love it and wish I would have come across this earlier. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for a Health and Sport watch all in one.

Great Throwback Watch That Does It All
on April 16, 2025
Posted by: Lynna98
i purchased this watch last month and I came from briefly owning an Apple 10. I have no need for lots of the features on the Apple Watch and find myself wasting even more of my time scrolling through the watch as well as my phone. I am trying to simplify and this Instinct 2 is perfect because it gives me all the info that I need and allows me to see the screen because it is always on. The battery life is amazing and so nice to have no need for constantly having to stick in a charger. I just charge it every week to top it off and I am good to go!

I cannot download apps from Connect IQ

Posted by: Instinct 2 user
I bought this watch 3 weeks ago. It works fine, but I cannot download apps and watch faces from Connect IQ. That is supposed to be a key benefit of a Garmin watch. Support told me that this is a known issue that the engineers are working on.

I really love the Instinct 2. Wish the standard edition came in Jet Black, but there are a lot of band options. Great job Garmin.

Great watch

obviously, as will most Garmin items, this watch comes with lots of bells and whistles already turned on. After setting the watch up to they way you want it, it's even better. Got the watch about 2 weeks ago. Ran some training and finished a marathon already. Love this thing, and I had a Fenix 5 prior to this that lasted me 6 years and multiple marathons.

Instinct 2 One of the Best
on April 23, 2025
Posted by: Bogart Golf
This is the second review I'm submitting on the Instinct 2. This is the absolutely best watch I've bought to support my golf game and maintain health statistics. It is easy to use and easy to read. Great watch.
