    Great! Exactly what I needed

    I had the VIvoactive which has a touchscreen but live in a very rainy place and so that caused problems with the screen. This was a perfect replacement. I am so glad I switched.

    Features do not work.

    Xero locations doesn't work. I have a friend who has this exact watch and it works for him. Target won't let me return the watch by mail. So now I have to drive an hour and a half each way to a Target store to return it. I'll never buy anything from Target again, and you shouldn't either.

    Love this watch! I prefer it over my Apple Watch. Battery lasts a very long time, and overall it’s just a very durable watch with many features.

    Great running watch

    I got this because I wanted a simpler and smaller watch with MIP display for road and trail running. I also have the older Instinct 2S and wanted to compare. This does not have the solar feature of the 2S, but it really doesn’t need it. Almost everything is improved over the 2S. The display is easier to read, it picks up GPS faster, everything works more quickly. GPS tracking is accurate. Battery life is not as good as the 2S, but it’s more than adequate for my purposes. If you’re running 50, 100 milers, it might not have the battery you need in GPS mode. But for marathon or 50k distance, it’s more than enough. All in all, a lot of watch in a small package for a reasonable price.

    Confusing Buttons

    I have it for 2 weeks and still confused with "lap" button. Screwed up two workouts already because of it. Other than that watches are doing what they need to do.

    Hassle at best

    I am fairly new to this watch but: The fit is not good, band is terrible and buttons hard to access/use. The settings are really hard to use with a very confusing button activity. Choices on setup of the screen are very limited and not intuitive. All in all it is the worst purchase I have made in a very long time, Maybe at half the price I would be willing to tolerate this thing but I doubt it. I am looking at it now and do not understand what some of the indications even mean on the face. Yes I have gone through all of the videos and instructions. Most of this stuff cannot be changed. Also no assistance available.
