The solar charging feature is also frequently highlighted as a beneficial addition, while the GPS accuracy and comprehensive sleep tracking capabilities receive positive feedback. However, some users express concerns about the display's readability, particularly indoors, and the heart rate monitor's accuracy.

    Great watch I just don’t wear watches or need this much tech so I’m going to return it. Other than that I would totally keep it, just don’t need to spend that much money on something I’m not using.

    Christmas present. Can't really say anything about the product, but my daughter in law is a game warden and it was a requested present. That should speak volumes.

    This was an upgrade to the standard Instinct and the solar feature is fabulous. The standard Instinct is a wonderful watch and the solar feature just takes it to another level.

    Working well but not 5 star until I see how long it will take a charge. Garmin instinct before this would no longer charge after less than 1 year.
