    • Amazing battery life!
Color: Graphite - 2 Solar Size: 45 MM Style: SOLAR Pattern Name: Watch
I got this watch after being frustrated by my Apple Watch's 6-8 hour battery life. Yes, out of the box. Yes, it was sent in for repair and they said it's working as designed. No more Apple Watches for me. In fact, no more new Apple products. Nice job, Tim Apple. I digress. The Garmin watch does what I need it to do and has a real-world battery life of around 19 DAYS for me. That's constantly monitoring my pulse rate, keeping Bluetooth on, and getting notifications from my phone. NINETEEN DAYS! Is it perfect? No. The monochrome screen is functional and high resolution. It is very readable in bright sunlight, unlike the Apple Watch. But the backlight leaves something to be desired. Even at its highest brightness, it's a bit dim for my eyes. The user interface takes some getting used to. Pressing buttons is different than holding buttons. So each of the 5 buttons has two functions. Once you get the hang of it, though, it's pretty intuitive, but do expect a learning curve. Garmin Pay works... if your bank is supported. None of mine were supported until I changed banks. (Not for the watch alone, other reasons too.) Even then, it was a manual process on my bank's side, causing me to have to call them up. Apple Watch just works better in this case. The solar panel does function, but do not expect to reach 100% battery, even outside all day in the direct sun. You may see several percent increase, but unless you turn almost everything off except the time, the solar cell will not provide significant charge. With nearly everything off, however, you can attain "unlimited battery" being in the bright sun for several hours a day. The app was just updated recently. It works well, but isn't as intuitive as the previous version. Learning curve again, I think. I manually sync my watch daily (or when I remember). This works well. There are ways to customize many watch faces, and there are a few apps available on the Garmin store to add functionality to the watch. It's a little challenging as it is a separate app for the Garmin store on your phone, and you have to look for apps that run on your specific model of watch. I wish it could filter by the watch you own, but alas they haven't done that yet. Overall, this is an excellent watch with a wealth of features. Just expect to study the manual and memorize buttons and other functionality. I highly recommend this watch. ... show more

This is a great watch for those with an outdoorsy lifestyle. As someone who loves spending time in the mountains, especially with my dog, this watch gives me everything I need and even allows me to see where the dog is! Plus, the battery lasts nearly a month!

    • I love this watch
Color: Graphite - 2 Solar Size: 45 MM Style: SOLAR Pattern Name: Watch
I cannot say enough good things about this watch. I wear it constantly for health data tracking. I had to stop wearing my apple watch a few years ago because the battery just wouldn't last anymore and the price was crazy for a battery life that was less than a day. Then I discovered the Garmin Instinct. I first spotted one being worn by a colleague. I inquired about it and he shared his thoughts, after some deliberation, I decided to buy one. I picked one up from Amazon on a deal so I ended up with the solar model. The battery life on this thing is unreal. 17 days of regular use on a single charge and the ability to go unlimited days with enough solar exposure. It's a lightweight, tactical looking watch that is perfect for a man that likes to have manly things. It connects to the phone easily and needs to be synced daily to keep the relevant weather data up to date on the face. Even for the Instinct, there are multiple options for watch faces on the ConnectIQ app. Do yourself a favor and get a Garmin watch now. ... show more

    • smart fitness watch I have been waiting for
Color: Graphite - 2 Solar Size: 45 MM Style: SOLAR Pattern Name: Watch
This is the smart fitness watch that I have been waiting for. Watch is very comfortable, lightweight, good size, includes all the features any fitness/outdoorsman would want, and incredible battery life. I upgraded from a solar G-shock watch that I have been wearing for years waiting for a decent solar fitness watch. I have had lots of recommendations to consider Garmin fitness watches for tracking workouts and health, and I am grateful for their recommendations. this watch has it all. The user interface is very simple to navigate, and there are so many features and customizable options built in. I have only had it a week, so I have only used it for indoor rowing, hiking, and mountain biking, and the built in sports applications are excellent. My friends and family with Apple watches are all envious of the battery life, plus it has solar charging that actually works! While playing at the park with my kids this weekend, I could literally watch the battery life increase. It also charged while I was driving the car. Prior to purchasing, the only negative reviews that I saw online were regarding the difficulty in seeing the watch face in the dark or lowlight settings. First of all, the watch has a backlight button so you can get instant light at anytime of day. Secondly, there are backlight settings which can automatically turn on the backlight anytime you bring the watch up to view and will turn it off when you lower the watch; this setting can be set to all day or only at after sunset (which is the setting I have mine set to). Bottom line, there is nothing to not like about this watch. ... show more
