Customer Ratings & Reviews

Long battery life, rugged durability, built in flashlight and reliable GPS.

Swapped from the Apple Watch to this Garmin. I’ve had it for a few weeks and I’ve noticed a few differences. Apple was simple to use but wasn’t as in depth. Garmin takes some time to adjust to but gives you more. More in terms of tracking sleep and physical training. I do feel like my Garmin doesn’t accurately track my training. I did over 2 miles of cardio but it said I only did 0.25 miles. Not too sure if I have to calibrate it in some way. I do like it because since having this watch for a month or so, I’ve charged it 3 times which is awesome.

Really love the watch, use the GPS and flashlight all the time. Really enjoy not having to charge but once a month

I’m very impressed with this watch. The build quality feels solid and durable, and the design is both stylish and versatile—easy to wear casually or with more formal outfits. The timekeeping has been accurate, and the band is comfortable even after wearing it all day. Overall, it offers great value for the price and looks far more expensive than it is. I would definitely recommend this watch to anyone looking for reliability and good style

Very happy with this watch. I bought this as a daily watch after being tired of super smart watches with the intention of tracking steps while also having enough battery for hiking/backpacking. I'm happy to say that this has done all that and more. This has just enough smart features to keep me informed but not too much where I feel overwhelmed. The MIP display looks great and the controls work great without a touchscreen. The torch/flashlight is an added bonus. A few negatives worth mentioning is that the solar really doesn't seem that effective and the breadcrumb mapping is not the best. The solar not being effective is not a concern since I only spend a few days at a time on trail and I typically track my location via my phone for mapping so both of these issues are mitigated for me. Overall I am very happy with this device!

I bought the first instinct series and this is what the 3 replaced everything has been upgraded from the one to the three the in between charge times is fantastic I have had it about two months and I have only had to put it on charge one time and it saids 24 days left now yes I know it’s supposed to do that but that’s my point it does what they say and some much more. The connectivity has been improved a lot with my old one it was hit or miss this one has failed so far no issues at all

I am really enjoying this watch. Moved from a Garmin Vivoactive 5. Obviously, the larger display makes reading so much easier. I have noticed that it keeps much better track of my heart rate than the Vivo 5. Not a fan of silicone bands so I have purchased a canvas band instead that matches the blue coloring. I still have a week's worth of battery life left on the initial charge so that really pleases me. It seems durable but I am pretty easy on my devices. Very comfortable to wear once I replaced the band with a shorter length and more absorbent material.

This watch is one the best purchases I’ve ever made! I wanted to gift my husband a great gift because he works so hard, and this watch exceeded my expectations. Not too mention he loved it also!

I have had the watch for about 6 week. I love the battery life on it. I am getting about 3 weeks on one charge unless I am outside a lot, then I get more. It is fairly easy to use especially since I use to have the gen 1. Getting the watch face customized can be a little trickly but not bad at all.

Like the look in the watch. The battery last longer due to the solar charge. I am able to track my sleep, steps and other health in the app. I did get an irregular heartbeat alert while exercising which is good to know so I can follow up with my doctor.

I made some research before purchasing this garmin and I am absolutely loving it. It is the 2nd garmin I have, the previous was a forerunner 235. It wears very comfortable specially when doing my workouts and I've been using it to track road running, treadmill, strength training, jumping rope, inline skating and indoor cycling so far. I like very much the strength training tracking, it can even identify some workouts (as long you are executing the proper form). I've also signed up for a virtual running coach and I'm enjoying the experience so far. It makes everything organized with the schedule workouts easily synced between the smartwatch and the app. The battery is awesome, it lasts forever and I only had to recharge after a month. I will use it as an indicator that I need to go more outdoors to use more solar recharge, but also as a way to keep up with my vitamin D levels.

I got this for my husband for our anniversary. He absolutely loves it. He wears it every single day. His favorite feature is that it tracks his sleep.

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!

The cost is the same as an Apple Watch. I have yet to charge this product and I have had this for almost a month now. If you are looking for something that looks different than an Apple Watch I would highly recommend this product

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!

I'm with ROTC and been using it for a bit now, with all its features and stuff I'd say its very worth for someone that does a lot of pt and outdoors stuff. Came from a samsung watch though so its take some getting used to setting up to track activities. Else wise features are good. Hope it lasts a while

For the cost, it is a very worthwhile watch. The only downside, I think, is the black-and-white interface and the way it shows maps. Otherwise the battery life is amazing, as is the ability to charge with solar.

This watch is great, the only reason it doesn’t get 5 stars is because the real life battery life is about half of the estimated 21 days. I knew it would be less but I was hoping for two weeks before needing charged. Otherwise it updated, functions, and tracks awesome.

A great watch. I use it for kayaking, MTB, trail running and it is Great!. It had a black and white screen (not colour neither touch screen) but it is necessary for more power and solar charge capacity. The battery last more than 20 days if you don't use gps. Using gps I believe it could last at least 3 days (more than I need when I hike) but without taking into account the dollar charge capacity. To have taking on maps you need your cellphone. You can download previously map an your phone to work without connection

Bought for my anniversary with fiance. He enjoyed the rugged look, long battery life (I think he said weeks with one charge), and its improved sensor (he was upgrading from two gens back). The built in flashlight was a cool surprise.
