    great monochrome watch

    Great watch, worked just fine for almost 4 years, then solar charging stopped to work. Feature-wise excellent watch at this price point!

    Garmin makes great smart watches

    I like this watch a lot! My wife's smart watch needs charging every couple of days; mine goes for almost a month between charges. I love that it displays notifications from my phone so I can check them without dragging my phone out of my pocket. The band it came with was difficult and slow to remove and latch again, but I found a reasonable replacement with a swing-over magnetic latch that is perfect.

    It worked great for 2 years before the battery stopped holding a charge and the solar charging feature also stopped working. This wouldn’t be a problem if the battery was replaceable but it is not. Planned obsolescence?

    Great adventure watch

    Super useful watch, I prefer the mip display over the amoled ones, easy to see in sunlight. I used it for a recent race and was pleased with the data it gave me.

    Well, it was a gift from my son. I am old school but starting to figure it out. Just where do I get information on what all the apps on the face represent. It just will take me some time. I need to know where to get the manual for my Garmin watch.

    I have always worn analog watches, never thought I would own a smart watch, but I love the functionality. This watch has tons of it.

    Instinct 2 Solar Watch

    Only a few weeks but I’m enjoying much more that my iwatch. I love the pulsox feature and instant connection to previous Garmin Connect app. Battery life has not needed a charge yet so solar feature a plus when wearing uncovered outside. A keeper. I’m a beginner with a watch like this but features similar to my Garmin MTB 530 bike computer so easily figured out the features.

    Perfect every day watch!

    This watch does everything I could ask for. From tracking work outs to being used to log lap times while racing and everything in between. As a rally navigator it is important to be able to track sunrise and sunset as well as keep up with current weather. This watch does all of that in a small, easy to navigate package. If you’re looking for a simple smart watch to use everyday, this is one to consider.

    I may update to a 5 star - right now it is the learning curve that is keeping it at 4star. Trying to figure out which buttons do what is taking a little time.

    Don’t hesitate…

    Don’t hesitate like I have on pulling the trigger on picking up this awesome gadget! I certainly haven’t learned the ins and outs of it yet, but I am very impressed so far. It is very comfortable on the wrist, and it is well-secured via two keepers. The battery life has been great so far, and the ability of solar to keep it going for even longer is pretty great! It integrates well with iOS, which I was worried about. I have only laurels; no complaints here!

    I can't even imaging a better watch

    I bought the Garmin Instinct 2 Solar about 3–4 years ago, and it’s still in excellent shape. I wear it every day and only take it off occasionally to charge, and even that’s rare. I work outdoors as a Park Ranger, and I love this watch’s ability to drop GPS points, navigate, and track my activities in the field. The solar charging is a real benefit. Because I’m outside so much, the watch often charges enough that I don’t need to plug it in, unless I’m doing something GPS-heavy. In that case, the battery drains faster than solar can keep up, but it still does a good job extending battery life once you’re back in the sun. I’m also a DIY guy and spend a lot of time working around the house and on my vehicles. This watch gets knocked, scraped, and bumped into everything, yet it still looks great. It basically shrugs off abuse and keeps going. I’m genuinely impressed with how durable and reliable it’s been, no matter what I’ve put it through. If I had one critique, it’s that I wish it had a better way to track fishing or hunting trips. The “best hunt and fish times” widget also hasn’t been very accurate or useful for me, though I believe that’s a third-party feature rather than something Garmin built in. That said, I do like that the watch supports third-party watch faces and widgets, it adds a nice level of customization. Overall, this is a fantastic watch. I’m on my third band after years of daily wear and heavy use, which feels like a pretty minor downside.

    Great battery life.

    I've been wearing this Instinct 2 for more than 3 years. If I don't use the GPS, I can go 3 weeks before recharging. That's wearing the watch 24/7 and with the green pulse lights always on. Also, in bright sunlight, the display is easier to read than any type of actively lit OLED display. Just not as pretty.

    Great tracker for the price

    It is a rugged and well constructed watch. GPS is amazing. Battery life is long. Good functions for what I need although some functions can be a off like the sleep tracker. That can give you some data that is off like being awake in the middle of the night and it shows you were in a sleep state. But for the price it's not a big deal. I get a good enough baseline to know what's going on. If I wanted to get the most accurate data and spend lots of money on an expensive tracker and/or yearly subscription I would. But I'm not a professional athlete where that might make a marginal difference and the data I'm getting for my fitness training is just fine.

    I have used less capable versions of this same watch with excellent results. The fonts on the screen seem larger and more clear. The solar options and power monitoring are an outstanding addition to the lineup.
