Great looking, excellent battery
I had the original Garmin Instinct for years and love it and the battery life was great. I wanted a new fresher look and this is perfect. The AMOLED screen looks great, battery life has been great, the heart rate sensor seems to be a big improvement over my original Instinct. Def glad I purchased and hope this one last a long time too
