This watch does everything I need. It even survived a bad motorcycle accident and it continues to perform with excellence!

So far, so good
on January 7, 2024
Posted by: Cap’n Greg
I have my Instinct Solar since Christmas. So far, I really like it. The battery lasts for almost a month, and I haven’t had much ability for the solar function yet. Next month I will be I. Hawaii and will get a chance to see the solar charging in action. The screen is easy to read (time and time in particular).
I am anxious to see how water proof it is…plan to wear it when diving in Hawaii.
Band is comfortable. The watch is a bit thicker than I thought it would be, and is a little clunky to wear to bed. But the fitness tracking, including sleep analysis is interesting.
So far, so good !

Great watch, missing some important aspects
on January 8, 2024
Posted by: Nickyg222
Overall this watch is great. Battery last longer than the “A” watch. Tracks workouts well. Only thing I wish this watch kept up with is VO2 max and had a triathlon workout. It offers swim, bike, and run individually, but not together. Not a super big deal, but a mild inconvenience.

This watch was a gift for me during the holidays! The day I got it I used the live location feature and hike workout. Having access to the app is a great way for people to see what they have accomplished over any physical activity. Satisfied and stoked on rocking this watch.

The watch worked as it should have until a week after the warranty has expired.
It is now useless.

GPS & Floors/Climbing (Ascend/Decend)
on January 16, 2024
Posted by: Bigmoe
I go this for Christmas. Overall the watch is nice. However my main purpose was for all my hiking I do. The GPS never works always say requires satellite no matter where I'm at. The Floors/climbing do not work.
