Great overall performance

I bought this two weeks ago and am still trying out all the features and customizing to my liking. Completely satisfied so far but wish it included golf as an activity.

Great watch overall!

Very happy I went with the instinct solar! Battery life is amazing. Coming from the Apple Watch I was concerned but it does all I need it to do plus I don’t need to charge daily. Personally for work outs, and hiking/running the Garmin Connect app is amazing.

Lots of information

Had it for about 2 weeks now and it makes accessing health data easy. I'm not yet saying it will replace a cycling computer, but not far off. Battery life is better than most competitors from what I can tell. The ergonomics of its buttons takes some getting used to, but that's also due to its broad capabilities.

Everything I needed in a watch!

Minimalistic. Long battery life. Tactical and rugged style. Just enough features in a smartwatch but not too much that its a waste. I Mountain Bike, Hike, Jog, Lift and do HIIT workouts with it and track everything. I spend more time outside and want to explore more of the great outdoors with it.

Another Great Watch
on August 11, 2020

I have had this watch about 2 weeks now and love it. I have had many Garmin watches but hate having to charge every couple days so wanted the solar instinct as soon as I saw it. I have only charged it the initial time and with being outside a few hours a day, it moves between 23 and 24 days remaining. The updated HR seems very accurate and love the GPS for walking and cycling as well.

Instinct Solar, Yay!

This is a much better smart watch than my other one. I like buttons on the side, no accidental operation of watch features. Great battery life, solar recharge and feels great on my wrist. Easy to learn the controls and features with lots of apps. Multiple battery saving modes with options that allow (never plug in) with a bit of solar charging. Great watch!
