The Perfect Smart Watch
on May 16, 2023

Tells you everything that you might need regarding your body, training, navigation and the time without duplicating all the functions of your phone. Simple and intuitive user interface. Battery life is fantastic.

Had it for 2 weeks, only take it off when I shower, love it. Very tough, solar charging works great, haven't dropped below 90% battery yet, torch is a game changer

Nice Watch
on May 19, 2023

As a long time Garmin watch user, I like this watch, specifically for its size and weight, flashlight, and durability. I will say though that coming from a Fenix 7, the watch is significantly slower when processing an activity than is the Fenix. If Garmin has any suggestions to speed up the processing, I would love to hear them.

Exactly what I wanted

I've had this watch for a few weeks now and it is just what I was looking for. I've had Garmin watches for years. There are some other training tools I use that I wish had better integration with the Garmin ecosystem so last year I decided to try a Samsung Watch 5. That watch is fantastic but still had shortcomings integrating with other training tools I use and it wasn't a Garmin. The accuracy wasn't quite as good, and the training tools weren't quite as good, so just overall wasn't as good a fit for me.
Enter the Instinct 2X Solar. This watch is awesome! The battery life has been outstanding, the training tools are outstanding.
I do miss having a color screen just a bit but the tradeoffs are way better! I also thought it might be a bit large for me (6ft male) but it's a great fit for me.
I thought the flashlight might be a bit gimmicky but it turns out I use it almost every night when I walk my dogs. It's much brighter than I would have expected.
