It Was The Best Watch
on November 27, 2022
Posted by: BirdXSauberSlapper04
This Watch has the Feature i need most, The Pulse Ox, Sleep Tracking and Hydration and the sleep tracking helped me to remind myself to sleep well tonight, the stress tracking was still super handy on this watch and it is the most best feature i have ever seen on a Garmin Wearable

Love that I made the change!
on December 3, 2022
Posted by: BarbC
This is my 3rd Garmin, and I've loved everyone! The Instinct2S was a big change as I was coming from the VivoActive, a slim fit device. As a trail hiker, the 6 hour limit on my Vivo just wasn't enough. I find the S fit perfect for my petite wrists. And because the Vivo has no side buttons, I was hesitant at first as my wrists can get angled with my hikes. To date, no issues of accidental pressing, the buttons are slim. I find the Instinct2S light and non-bulky. Set up was simple and love the fitness features that I had never had before. I went with Poppy, love it, an early holiday present to me!

The manual was in the smallest print that I've seen. I wasn't happy with the small face and low-lighting; made it difficult to read in the night time. The picture of the Garmin watch appears sturdy and user-friendly.

not what I expected
on December 21, 2022
Posted by: texgirl80
did not like the garmin instinct 2s. the main reason the battery did not last what it is shown in the specifications, I did everything to ''save battery'' and not even that worked. Besides it looked too bulky with a small screen, weird for me. All my personal opinion.

Glad I have the next few days off.

I’m glad I’ll have a few days off to give this watch my undivided attention. Printed the manual: I am looking forward to enjoying many cups of coffee as I discover all the options available. Like how it ties into My Connect app.

My Opinion, My Review
on December 27, 2022
Posted by: Unhappy in Bali
Not happy with the specifications of the watch. I purchased the watch for health & workout readings but the lighting is terrible and yet to switch to a more eye-friendly visible face, you have to pay for that. I'm gifting to someone and I'll switch back to a Samsung.

This thing absolutely SUCKS!!!
on December 29, 2022
Posted by: Shawnmichelle
It is horrible. It is impossible to learn to use and the display is so dark it is impossible to read. I can only see the time when I shine the flashlight from my phone onto it. Additionally, the set up function never completes and it is draining my Iphone 13 in a matter of 2 hours from a full charge. I hate this thing.
