    Great metrics and capability and the accuracy is high only real draw back is that in the evening the face is hard to read. Also it takes a few attempts to understand how the watch works as it is not completely intuitive.

    I originally bought this watch with the intent of not having to charge it ever again when in smart watch mode. It has not let me down thus far, thankfully with my daily solar exposure, the battery is still showing the same amount of days left for my battery as it did on day one!

    Excellent watch. It is extremely comfortable and I have had no issues with it! Syncing it to my phone has been a huge quality of life improvement since it alerts me anytime I get a text message. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a watch, especially anyone who is an outdoorsy type!

    Initially out of the box, the watch was a disappointment, as it showed only 12 days of battery life on full charge. But once I connected it to the garmin connect app and did a firmware update, it now gives 28 days of battery life. Up from 24 on my instinct 1st gen. I love the morning greeting as well.
