Not really accurate
on January 29, 2021
Posted by: Hellas
I got mine as a Christmas gift about a month ago , I noticed that step counter and sleep tracker aren’t accurate, I used to have a Fitbit which costs 1/5 from what a garmin solar goes for and it’s way more accurate, Plus after a month screen went blank , called garmin they had a good customer service they sent me another watch after I send the broken one back , I hope that will last little longer.

Life’s great, technology just keeps offering better and better products. Pretty much been through the gambit, from Rolex on down. The Instinct Solar just replaced my Fenix 5X Plus. The Instinct fits my life style and has even put my Apple Watch in the drawer from occasional use. Light weight, great easy to read display and all the functions I like.
Thank you

Great Features, Easy switch over to the product

I bought this watch about a week ago when my previous watch stopped working. The product was shipped quickly and when I received the watch it was easy to switch over and understand the features. Great watch and has everything that I need.

Best Watch Ever
on February 16, 2021

I’m an old school athlete just wanted to replace my Ironman. Looked at Sunntos etc... and loved the Garmin solar feature.... Long battery life plus solar - in my opinion this beat the iwatch at least you don’t have to charge it every night and it is robust / tough

Perfect minimalist smartwatch

Been using it for a couple of weeks and couldn't be happier. Once you get the hang of it, checking notifications, replying, activity tracking, etc becomes almost automatic. Good OS. Allso the solar/battery feature is not a gimmick, it really works! Getting like 15 day battery in the Midwest winter which is not bad at all.

Love it!!

A friend of mine had one of these and was showing me all his stats after our day on the slopes and I was hooked. Love how seamlessly it syncs up with Strava. Has helped me immensely with getting back into shape and running and even on the elliptical. Would recommend to anyone.

My only complaint is that I would like a more thorough users's manual.
