    Garmin Instinct 3 Review

    Picked this up to try and compare against my Apple Watch. As a brain tumor survivor, I’m very interested in my health stats. Helping me track my sleep and honestly looks cool too. Would recommend.

    Instinct 3 Solar

    I originally had a forerunner 265, before I broke it. I honestly like the face of the 265 better than the instinct 3 solar. The instinct is harder to read messages, it has alot more information available on the screen without going through the fuctions of the watch. On the plus side the instinct battery life incredibly long 20 plus days without a single charge. If I were younger it would be a non issue as far as seeing the watch but now i need to pull out readers... most of the time I just dismiss notifications since I can't just glance down at it and tell what it says. If your eye sight is better then it will an awesome watch.

    The battery life is only about 14 days if you workout/run regularly and use the GPS features. No big deal just charge it whenever you need too. But it will 100% last 28 days or more with the solar charging if you just want a smart watch. Visibility is great too, bright or dark you can always clearly see the display. Overall highly recommend if you need a watch that can last in the rigorous conditions and tracking tour physical performance

    The watch is a great better life, I have used it now for almost a month, without charging. I haven’t seen much utility with the solar charging however, it does not like to pray regular smart watches, is a mix in between smart, watches and analog watches might gives you a vibe off digital watch, combined with a smart watch. You have to get notifications on the watch. Starting an exercise exercises, not as as a friendly command, Apple Watch, or it may just be that it is taking me some time to get used to it. If you’re looking for a lot of different watch your faces, this might not be the watch for you

    Although a bit pricey, this is a great watch. I thought i wouldn't like the orange accent, but it's honestly looks pretty good in person. Mostly got it for the battery (I have a Galaxy Watch Classic 8 as a smartwatch), and the battery has been great on it. Wastes about 10 percent (probably a little less) per day, and it has become my daily wearable. Great for tracking workouts too.

    Love this watch and the buttons on the side are much easier to use than my previous Garmin watch with the touch screen. Battery life is awesome. Best Buy lowered the price after I purchased the watch and I was able to get a $100 price match

    Great watch with outstanding battery life. I was not a fan of the red ring around the bezel and that round complication in the top right hand quadrant. I ended up returning this watch in favor or something that is a bit more muted but I would absolutely recommend it all day if you are looking for a rugged fitness tracker that has all of the basics. Garmin kept it simple with the exception of the two things that I highlighted. This could be the perfect watch for the right person.
