Je n'avais jamais supporté l'Inconfort d'une montre bracelet auparavant. Son bracelet est très confortable, ses fonctions évoluées intelligentes, dont le GPS me sont utiles lorsque je vais en foret ou je suis sur des grands lacs. Je découvre des nouvelles fonctions régulièrement et je ne manque plus aucun appel importants..

Great features, short battery life
on June 12, 2023

I've been a long time other smartwatch brand user and have been waiting on my last one to die and chose a Garmin Instinct 2S. I like the small size of the 2S, however the downfall is battery life. I have the pulse ox off and get 7 days battery life then it goes into battery saver mode. That's a day or two longer than my last watch and was hoping to get at least 10-14 days. With only 7 days of battery life, that is much less than half of the advertised 21 day battery life. I assume the watch needs to be in full battery saver mode to last that long.
Other than the short battery life I have no issues with the watch. The features are great and I enjoy the app interface. The. I just am coming from a smaller smartwatch and wanted to try the smaller instinct 2 hoping it would have battery life of the Instinct my friends have that last over 20 days on full smart watch mode including notifications.

It has motivated me to improve my training intensity and I love seeing all the data. Previously, I had an Apple watch and I love the insane battery life of the watch and its limited distractions. I have the poppy color and I love the look of the watch. It has been a wonderful tool when it comes to my mountain biking, trail running, and cycling!

So far I enjoy this watch - it has way more fitness tracking functions than I need, is pretty easy to get accustomed to, has an AMAZING battery life and I love the poppy color.

Super cute - does the job

I love the color, but aside from aesthetics it does everything I want without all the extra bullsh*t I dealt with with my previous watch. I don't want a ton of random, superficial features. The Instinct 2S provides great support to mountain adventures, has all the details I want at first glance on my watch face, and has the LONGEST battery life of any watch I've ever owned. Definitely recommend - my experience helped my coworker make the decision to get one of his own. You won't regret it.
