Amazing build and exicution
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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!

Garmin Instinct 3
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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!

Garmin instinct 3 solar rocks
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Garmin instinct 3 solar review, would buy again
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product, the solar power charging is insanely good. Great for hiking, fishing, and even daily use. Rough if you work in construction it can take some hits

Does what it says
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Garmininstinct 3 solar
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the watch so far has everything i need in a watch and more than enough smart watch capabilities without being an extra phone on my wrist.

Army ready, just takes a bit to get used to.
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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

50mm is the way to go
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you are trying to decide between 45mm and 50mm, go with the 50mm. Solar charging is excellent, I barely have to take off watch let alone put on charge. Very good functions I actually like it is not touch screen.

Great watch - about 11 days battery
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
