Amazing battery life and a solar boost outside for a fitness watch. Nothing beats Garmin for battey life. Only dissapointment is the display is hard to read indoors. More for outdoors people is where it shines.. use the fitness app for your resulted instead of watch...$500 less than the next color screen model up and that doesnt have the battey life.

I used to have the Garmin Instinct and the uprgrade on battery life is phenomenal! It also has a lot more activities and tracks my workouts with better sensitivity. Great product I'd recommend.

Simple perfect. Got this watches for over 2 years. O issues Battery life is fantastic 30+ days , if you work outdoor ,they constantly charging.

I got a Garmin watch so it would integrate with the Garmin Edge bike computer and Garmin connect. After a month of use, I’d say they don’t play well together. The body battery, heart rate, recovery times, stress, etc. don’t integrate. You would think an activity record on the edge would affect and show on the stats and graphs in connect, but they don’t and if I use both, the activity doubles up. The heart rate sensor frequently shows 20-30 bpm less than the chest strap at higher rates(130-170). Seems ok at low rates (45-80). The my day summary info does match the details when you click on it. For instance, the max heart rate on the summary might be 158 and the max on the details is 160. Sometimes it’s only off a little and other time it’s way off, even after syncing and refreshing. Integration with iPhone seems to work fine. Solar charging and battery life also seem to be as advertised.

Purchased this watch as I was needing better battery life, had been using apple watches for last 4 years. I have experience with Garmin so decided to go back, and this watch has all the bells and whistles and lots of battery.

Best smartwatch I ever owned. Battery life is incredible I have only charged it 3 times since my purchase.

Used it on a recent off-grid adventure and was completely satisfied with the functionality, love the compass feature. Battery life is exceptional!

Has great features and the battery lasts a long time. Solar charging sure helps the battery.

Great battery life unparallel to other watch and the solar charge function is amazing. Nice durable great for health and sport. Still learning all the bells and whistles but this was the perfect choice.l

Have always had Garmin wearables. The Instinct 2 Solar is light, durable with excellent battery life. The updated 2 version allows adjustments to be made through the app. Well done Garmin.

I love the watch and it has great features plus GPS. Best value and quality. The battery charge last for a long time. One charge can last about a month.

Love this watch! It tracks everything I need, from heart rate to HRV and workouts. I would definitely recommend this watch! Battery stays charged for a few weeks!

I am not a regular or smart watch person, but this watch has been on my wrist for a month now and i couldnt be more impressed. Garmin has the best system for the health/adventure minded individual. Even with the barebones/lack of touchscreen capable screen, this watch works and flows seamlessly with my Galaxy s22 ultra. I am able to track health markers i never considered in the past and am well informed while exercising. I suspect I will only use this watch for a year and consider upgrading to a slightly bigger, or more tech packed model but either way, i am very pleased with the Instinct 2 solar!

This watch has a lot of features which are easy to locate and use. It’s both durable and reliable, even in extreme temperatures. Easy to read display.

If you are a hiker, hunter, shooter, outdoorsman, or very active, then this watch is for you. Great battery life with all the features I need. The Display is easy to read in full sun and has everything I need for what I do. I love the texture and I do SCUBA dive with this watch. It is absolutely fantastic.

This is perfect for outdoor activities battery long lasts and solar will help extend it for little long

Very durable and has a battery that lasts a very long time. I owned the first Instinct and am currently enjoying the second iteration.

Amazing watch 28day charge time. Versatile and does everything i want. Its not color but its long time between charges and ability to solar charge make this Amazing.

The watch has a long-lasting battery and is comfortable to wear.
