Easy to Use and Worth It!
It’s great! A little confusing, and you have to download a few apps to get certain functions (highly recommended getting the Garmin app) but the base features are nice and easy to use! Loved the sleep score function, really detailed. It charges fast and lasts days.

Instinct E
I like the simplicity of it compared to Instinct 2. But, not too many days. Only 16 compared to 28. Good enough for me, though.

I like this more than I thought I would
Had the watch for a couple of weeks now after switching from a Samsung. Love the fact that it battery hold a charge. Samsung always died in the middle of the day, and could not wear at night. Didn't realize that it was buttons and not a touch screen when I purchased. Once I got used to the buttons it has been easy to use.

Returned, disliked very much
Monochrome screen. Won't connect to tablet. Connect is a powerful program. Upgraded to another model.

User friendly
I’ve had my watch about a month. The setup was easy. The battery lasts up to 16 days on a charge which is great. The watch face is easy to read. Absolutely, no complaints. It is definitely an upgrade over a Fitbit.

Amazing amount of features!
I got this watch as a replacement for a FitBit. So glad I upgraded. I am still learning all the features of this watch, and look forward to using it to track my health and activities (hiking, biking, etc).

Exceptional piece of equipment
I purchased this product as a heart patient to monitor every aspect that's available. Due to the fact I have a pacemaker/defibrillator I would like to see a longer bands available for it to be worn at night at the ankle . This will keep the unit away from the implanted device. That said though , I'm am very i.pressed and pleased with my unit

Everything I needed!
I wasn't looking for anything too fancy, just something to get a little more intentional with my overall wellbeing. I've had smart watches in the past, but they seemed too much like a phone on my wrist. I did a lot of looking into different fitness watches and health trackers and this seemed like the right fit, and it was! I still get notifications, but I enjoy how the wellness features are highlighted rather than the social features.

Way better than Fitbit.
I originally had a Fitbit but they got rid of the web based dashboard feature (I prefer using a laptop PC style) which was a real bummer for me so i tried Garmin and like the whole experience much better. Thanks Garmin.

Great Features, Not Intuitive
Instinct E offers great features and fits comfortably on the wrist, making it a solid choice for everyday wear. It provides access to a wide selection of watch faces through Connect IQ, but adjusting the watch face and reorganizing quick view items isn’t as intuitive as expected. While customization options are plentiful, navigating them requires some patience. Despite that, the watch’s overall functionality remains impressive. The ability to switch between a 12-hour and 24-hour clock is surely available—I just haven’t discovered the setting yet!

Software bug
Some instinct watches have a low battery software bug that makes the watch go to save mode even 100% charged. No solution provided by customer support, only that they will fix the bug eventually.
