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

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.

The watch has done everything that was promised. I'm not sure that I understand body battery yet, but in time and with a few Google searches, I should figure it out. I tested the "breadcrumbs" option on a simple walk around my neighborhood and it worked well, I was impressed by the accuracy of the return. I hope it works as well in the wild! I believe that distances and walking speeds are accurate. Battery life is infinitely better than Apple watches. Charging is straight forward. Plenty of activity options. Sleep and weather features appear to be accurate. I hope that I am saying the same things about the watch a year from now!

I really enjoy this watch. I have been wanting a Garman Smart Watch for a while now and Instinct 2 does not disappoint. I like the Connect app because it takes the information that I can get from the watch and it makes it bigger. However when you see the name Garman you think GPS and the watch does use GPS when you are tracking exercise and you can see a map of you journey on the app or even on the watch but on the watch you can only see a line indicating your route but not an actual map. I'm thinking a more expensive Garmin watch would have more GPS features Garmin is known for.

Rugged. Full of features. Connects well and securely to my iPhone, from where most features can be managed (that was smart). Accurate and consistent sensing. All told, I dig the watch. On the downside, the manual really does leave a lot to be desired. That's kind of an issue on a device this complex. Much of the symbology lacks explanation (some of it doesn't need it, but some of it does). Anyway, good product and I'm glad I bought it, but would like to see the documentation improved.

Love this watch! First garmin watch ever always had g shock or Luminox decided to try something new and am seriously impressed with all the abilities from weather to phone connections etc. love this watch and plan on being a return customer after this!

I have been enjoying this watch, getting to know how if functions and all that if offers. I am a little frustrated because lately it hasn't been able to sync or update my data. I would love to have this figured out so I don't have to keep restarting and disconnecting

I am using the watch since about 4 weeks. Very impressed with the functionality. Just like it is advertised. I do not have the solar version, but 24 days when fully charged is more than enough for me. Great health reports and many features that can be customized.

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.

I wasn't sure what to think, because I'm very simple when it comes to wearing a watch. Once the item was given to me, the one thing was that it was easy to set up, which was great. I like the color, the instruments were clear. I'm very pleased with the Garmin watch.
