I purchased this watch almost a month ago. This is my first smartwatch. I had a Fitbit for 2 days before taking it back getting the instinct 2. This watch was more my style and much more user friendly imo. I use this watch for my workouts and walks. My wife has a Fitbit and the Instinct 2 is way more accurate. Also the connect app works great with apple health. With the Fitbit I had to use 2 separate apps to sync it with apple health which was annoying. The watch has great battery life which is a big plus. I would definitely recommend this watch.
Love this watch

Love this watch! I really like the fact that I don't have to think about charging it. It helped me get back on track with my training. Also, love the richness of data in different categories. I wish I had bought it earlier.
Love the battery life!

I bought this to replace my Instinct Tactical that was approximately 8+ years old. I bought an Apple Watch Series 10 but didn’t like having to charge the battery daily! Gave that to my son!
Wonderful watch

Battery life is great. Features are nice. Intuitive to use.. It is annoying that the charge cable is proprietary, it would be nice to be able to plug it in to a more common cable end.
Great watch

I had the Instinct 1, and I just got the Instinct 2. Really like the watch. Seems to be much better at tracking my heart rate than the Instinct 1.

This watch is very rugged and durable, not even needing a case for it. It was worth it's weight on my last deployment, withstanding the dust/sand storms while providing a great resource for my rucking and running training. Battery life will be about half of the 28 days it says it's good for if you're recording activities. This watch can be for anyone, whether you've worn an apple watch for a while or any other brand and want a change.

Setting up this watch is a part time job. Buttons very hard to navigate app won't download watch faces. I paid $139 on clearance & glad it wasn't full price of $299
Really enjoying the watch

Bought the watch as a “next step” from the Fitbit Charge 6 fitness tracker. Really enjoying the additional features and look of the watch. Like that I can change the face of the watch to suit my data interests. Does need some getting used to but once I gained an understanding of all the watch has to offer and how to scroll through the metrics I am pleased with my purchase.

This is the second review I'm submitting on the Instinct 2. This is the absolutely best watch I've bought to support my golf game and maintain health statistics. It is easy to use and easy to read. Great watch.

I really love the Instinct 2. Wish the standard edition came in Jet Black, but there are a lot of band options. Great job Garmin.

obviously, as will most Garmin items, this watch comes with lots of bells and whistles already turned on. After setting the watch up to they way you want it, it's even better. Got the watch about 2 weeks ago. Ran some training and finished a marathon already. Love this thing, and I had a Fenix 5 prior to this that lasted me 6 years and multiple marathons.
I cannot download apps from Connect IQ

I bought this watch 3 weeks ago. It works fine, but I cannot download apps and watch faces from Connect IQ. That is supposed to be a key benefit of a Garmin watch. Support told me that this is a known issue that the engineers are working on.
Great feature

i purchased this watch last month and I came from briefly owning an Apple 10. I have no need for lots of the features on the Apple Watch and find myself wasting even more of my time scrolling through the watch as well as my phone. I am trying to simplify and this Instinct 2 is perfect because it gives me all the info that I need and allows me to see the screen because it is always on. The battery life is amazing and so nice to have no need for constantly having to stick in a charger. I just charge it every week to top it off and I am good to go!
Exactly what I was looking for

This Smart Watch is exactly what I was looking for in a watch. I have a Garmin Approach S1, a Garmin Vivomove HR, and an Approach S20. Each one of these watches provided information that I wanted to keep track of, but they couldn't do both the golf and health stats at the same time. Then came along the Instinct 2 and this watch does everything. From giving me a morning report, to tracking my sleep, tracking just about everything going and above all I can wear it for Golf. I love it and wish I would have come across this earlier. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for a Health and Sport watch all in one.
Option are good

I like it but I can’t find treadmill walks. I can’t run and I need treadmill walks instead of treadmill runs. If anyone can tell me how to get that much appreciated.

Ireally like this watch it does so many things most of which I'm to old to really get into. I do wish you made a cheat card so you can find the uses you want. I use mine more for health checks which is great plus weather and alarms. The messaging is also fantastic

This is my fourth Garmin watch- the first one 12 years ago, the battery went after a few years. Then a used one, then a new Forerunner 45 in '21. Well, the battery died on that one so now I have the Instinct and I love it... - Battery, Battery, Battery. Love not having to worry about charging all the time and love that I have room for future degradation - Liking the features like sleep tracking, heart rate, customization, etc. - Love the display customization (hey- what's sunrise, sunset, temp?) So overall a nice improvement over my normal "cheapest watch I can get" and hope it lasts longer than three years.
Love it

This watch has a lot of health data that is very interesting to look into. The only downside is the O2 sensor. Beong on the wrist, it is always off by at least 3 or 4 points. Ill check the watch then check a finger O2 sensor and the watch is always off. Sometimes by 6 points
