Size, weight, style, and battery life are GREAT!

Love the battery life and features. Had multiple Fitbit watches for years that seem to die every 18 months. Still getting used to all the options and menus. Only issue is tracking floors seems very inconstant, my Fitbit (on other arm) and iPhone seem to be more accurate than Instinct 2 Solar. Trying to figure out the ratio logged or logic even with re-calibration, missing about a third of the other two. The Garmin does a much better job of tracking steps compared to the Fitbit, petting the dog or cat does not show up as steps. Only had it a couple of weeks and not used many features but very impressed.

Best Battery Ever

I have to say that this is an exceptional watch. All the features really come together and they track very closely. Not to mention the amazing battery. I get roughly 14 days of battery life and I can get more if I go solar on it.

This watch does everything I need it to do plus it's solar....keeps running in the sun. It gives me all the info I need to keep track of my daily routines.

Great for a sports enthusiast

A watch that can track climbing grades, cycling, cross country skiing and running is amazing. Can also go into the app to track weight lifting progress. Bumping up to the solar option seems like an easy choice to make especially if you spend a lot of time in the outdoors. I've had bad luck with phone based trackers dying due to the cold I nordic ski in but with this watch I hit the buttons and enjoy my skis without a worry. As a budding alpine skier it was awesome to be able to track my speed and see the map of all the runs I did in a day. Fantastic !

Great watch! Love all its features. Comfortable to wear and it looks fantastic! It is robust and has lots of features. Great battery! However with the latest software upload some of the features that I used went away :( The solar is still not the best but the battery last days.

Instinct upgrade

Traded up from the gen 1 Instinct due to failing battery. The Gen 2 gives me more information with better battery life. I am not sure what to do with the extra information.
