Name a better multi-use watch.

Posted by: MHNH
I’m an avid hiker and needed a watch to accurately track my miles. This watch has done an outstanding job. With lots of activity tracking features, I can track my weight lighting exercises, walks, runs, etc. The battery life is amazing. I am still learning about features on my watch and I’ve had it about a month.

Great Watch
on December 22, 2022

I’m still getting used to the operation of various functions on this watch, but I like it. So far, battery life is INCREDIBLE. I’ve been wearing it almost 24/7 for over a week on one charge. Heart rate, blood pressure and pulse oximetry are great features and work well. Sleep tracking is pretty accurate even with my varying night shift sleep schedule. At this point, I would buy this watch again and recommend it to my friends. It’s a great value for the price.

Bought the watch about a month ago and over all am very happy with it. The battery life and heart rate monitor are the main reason i bough it but am happy overall with all the other features.

my day info not available in Garmin Connect
on December 25, 2022
Posted by: Aleksandru
I paired my watch with the Garmin Connect but it was not showing any data (heart rate, etc.) in the phone app. Practically, "My Day" info was not visible. It took me a good few hours to find out that, eventually, I have to remedy it "Windows-style": unpair the watch and pair it again.
only after this, the info in "My Day" section was displayed in the app but, with that, the yellow instinct solar icon that was showing initially in the phone app, became black. Not a big deal but it was nice to have it in the actual color of the watch displayed in the Connect app.
I was not expecting to have to go through this with a Garmin.

Excellent features

My wife bought me this Garmin instinct solar watch for my birthday. She saw this watch on the YouTube channel TOGR with Luke he does reviews on camping stuff and he is very honest and agenda free we trust what he says he has a Garmin instinct solar watch and he really likes its features and gave it great reviews. I'm pleased with it but still getting used to its features. I wish they explained better so I can take full advantage of all its features is my only concern. The watch is eye caching and it looks great.
