A Great Start!

I've been using my Instinct E for about a month and so far, so good! Its predecessor, a Forerunner 45, served me well for about five years, but it was getting difficult to charge (I think it was the contact points, but not really sure).
I like the new features of the Instinct-E; each watch proves to have its own personality and virtues. Anyway, it's a good one!

Instinct E
on March 6, 2025
Posted by: B. Allen
I bought this watch having come from the original Instinct that I’ve had since 2018. It’s been a great watch. I like that it has the connect IQ to change watches faces. It is also a sharper display. The E has all the features I need. Most of the general population that buys these are not doing extreme hiking or marathons and therefore the E has enough for the gen pop. What I think they dropped the ball on is still having a two week battery. It’s the same battery life as my original instinct. They cheaped out on that. It’s should be at least a month battery. The only other “like” I would want is to have the torch (flash light) on this one. Outside of that. I really like the watch.

While it has great features many are difficult to access. It is complicated to use some features.The watch is overly complicated.

Really cool GPS watch

Trading up to Garmin from Apple for the back-trac feature mostly, but man does this thing have battery life. My other watch dies in 1-2 days, but this thing will go for a month or more on a single charge, and I can charge it from my cell phone. Really impressed.
