Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with the Instinct Smartwatch's exceptional battery life and durability. Many appreciate its GPS functionality for outdoor activities and the ability to track various health metrics, including heart rate and sleep.

    So far so good. It does have a 2 week battery life, so that is a huge plus!

    You are not paying a lot so don’t expect a lot. This watch is pretty good at doing basic things such as tracking steps and heart rate. The basic interface is really clunky though and it takes some study time to figure it out. It’s light and tough and the battery lasts about two weeks depending on what you are asking it to do. If you are looking for a robust watch with basic features then this is a great one.

    This is a great watch for tracking steps and much more. We had a fit bit and it would count me on my riding mower or tractor this don't. This is a great item and holds a charge for a long time

    I decided I needed a watch that actually worked and had functional apps on it. So I started off buying buying them from Amazon I bought a total of four returning each one because it wouldn’t sync with my phone. I bought this one it was easy to setup and get it working with my phone. This watch was priced lower than all four that I had bought from Amazon but has more apps and I got it to work with no problems.

    Bought this watch on sale. Very rugged. Watch band is very comfortable. Functions work as advertised. However, I'm not getting quite 2 weeks on a charge. I get 1 week and 3 days.

    Good watch for the price... it may look sometimes like a kids watch because is all plastic... but it provides all the data you need. Fits awesome in your wrist and is so light that you forget you are wearing it.

    We got this as a fathers day gift for my dad and he loved it! He went through 2 apple watches that broke and was finally able to keep this watch in tact. He also loves all the features.

    Great watch, it's tough and I use it in a rough environment. No scratches on the lens, although I did purchase replacement warranty just in case due to the abuse it may occur.

    I’ve had a Fitbit for years and decided to make the switch to a Garmin and have been very happy. The watch looks great, it’s light weight and the battery lasts for 2+ weeks between charges.

    Broke another watch just wearing it daily. Cracked the face. The Garmin is tough and light. I only take it off to charge it. Synched to my phone it provides tons of data. The GPS and compass feature is a plus when I'm traveling or hiking and camping. Price is comparable to other brands.

    No frills, straight forward, rugged design. Exactly what I was looking for! This is my second Garmin watch. My first was excellent but not quite up to the task, as far as my job. I work with my hands and I'm constantly banging my watch on equipment. This thing shows zero signs of wear after two months of daily abuse. My old garmin still functions perfectly fine but has seen better days esthetically.
