I love this watch.

I got it so I could track steps and heart rate and got a lot more. The gps tracking is fun for hikes and safety. At anytime you can send a signal out to let people know I am in trouble and a coordinate on where.
The solar charger on it works very well. When camping or working outside it get a few days of charge as long as I am in one of the lower modes of operation. You can add your digital wallet to it for tap pay. I don't use all of the functions my self but there are videos on YouTube that explain all of it
It has been a long indispensable tool day to day.

So far so good, lives up to its reputation. Haven't used all of its capabilities just yet but will have by the end of December.

Wow

Amazing battery life. The watch arrived in the box with 28 days of charge. I finally got bored and charged it when it had 18 days left. The watch has so many features, I'm still figuring them out. Love the watch!

Motivational

Many of the features motivate me and help me think about ways to get better. I especially value the sleep feature. I’m more focused on what helps me sleep better (eg, no alcohol or food) in the evening. The record of my hikes and sleep and other features give me a glimpse into my overall health.

GARMIN Instinct, Fenix 7 and Fenix 8 SUCK
on October 28, 2024
Posted by: GuyM
I purchased my instinct and at first liked it a lot, the same with a Fenix 7 and Fenix 8. After 3 to 4 days of wearing the watches, they have stopped measuring my sleep. This is a big issue for me. I have gone to the website for answers and found none. I will never buy a garmin product ever again. Going back wearing a regular watch.

Didn’t know I needed this!

Coming from the vívoactive 5, this is a huge upgrade. I run, climb, and work as a wildland firefighter, and this watch is exactly what I wanted. I picked up the Instinct 2 Solar as I started training for an ultramarathon and it’s made the training more accurate, more focused, and more engaging. The UI and menus for tracking activities makes perfect sense to me, and the ability to customize menus / preferred workouts / stats I want to see during and after activities makes my training that much better. The solar function is great and the battery life is insanely long. Incredibly happy with my purchase!
