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.

    Great watch, just not easy to navigate through functions. There are so many different activities this watch can keep track of and the gps has a lot of capability as well. The physical features and design of the watch are nice. The band is very comfortable.

    I love that more than the Apple watch. It is suitable for sports and I am a handcyclist. Plenty of battery left for a few days.

    I have had another watch but it died after one year with water and went through two bands from the same manufacturer. I purchased this watch because the other manufacturer didn’t provide any warranty on the watch band (broke after two months). This band and watch is much better for an active life style.

    Used this watch now for about a year and a half. Love it! Very simple & easy to use. Has several apps that come in handy as well for hiking: compass and altimeter! They actually seem to be pretty accurate when compared to known sources. I use it all the time for running as well and it works great, I really like the interface with the Garmin app on my phone. Phenomenal battery life as well! Does have the sleep monitoring feature but I don't use it so I don't know how well it works

    Love my Garmin Instinct

    It’s comfortable to wear, well-built, sturdy, super easy to read, and has the right functions for me. Learning what each button will do does take some time. Once my 3rd fitness watch died, I reviewed several smart watches to pair with my Apple phone and decided the Garmin was the best value for my needs. (The fact I have an old Garmin S2 golf watch and 2 Nuvis did influence my decision. I like Garmin’s reliability.) Pairing was quick and easy with the Garmin App. If you don’t need a microphone or bells and whistles and can handle a relaxed outdoors appearance, consider a Garmin Instinct.

    Purchased this for a friend and he is loving all the functions and specs made available, great for a snowboarder and just overall outdoors adventure person. Materials make it possible to go through metal detectors while at work as well, watch does not have to come on and off like other brands owned.

    I like the watch alot. I'm older, so less is more on the display. I like that I have the main face loaded with the important info and I know here to go for the other information the watch provides. I tried about 4 different smart watches not being satisfied until this one
