I own a solar Casio Protek since 2009, it has never needed batteries or time adjustments, always accurate thanks to the atomic clock syncing every night. I would never go back to a watch that needs battery changing or daily charging. Only downside of the Casio it's not a smartwatch. This Garmin Instinct might be my next upgrade.

@Lordoftheflatbush 8 месяцев назад

I own this watch. I love the long battery life and solar charging. I get 50 days battery life when switching off the heart rate sensor. Very convenient. The most appreciated feature is the light which I use multiple times a day. Super handy!

@astasuleo 6 месяцев назад

i've heard this a lot. Please do not take it as a negative comment. The companies are highliting that their watch can stand so many days if you do not use GPS, or Pulse heart rate, or the oximetry sensor or the LTE (on those they have LTE). Really i dont care for those measurement. I do care to use all those sensors all the time because i need them all the time and i want a watch that can stand more than 10 days using all the sensors.

Hi Jabber, Nice review! I know Garmin watches use to have 2 different versions. One is APCA and the other one is ROW. The APCA version only contains English and some SE Asian languages, while the ROW version watches support multiple Germanic and Latin languages. For the newly released Instinct 2x, does it still have 2 versions? Or it has combined the SE Asian languages into it which sold in the US market or your country? Could you please help me to confirm this, please? Thanks in advance.

Well in order to get pretty much infinate battery life you have to pretty much turn most or all features off. I rely on pulse readings being diabetic out when I am working and weather. My curret Solar instinct the older version gets 13 days with everything turned on. Been set like that for 2 yrs. I don't like thrèe things on my current, the charging port not being covered, not being able to change the battery and the lousy watch band that wears our and breaks easy. Back then I paid top price when it was the only version, I'd expect better quality like my Casios. I wished Casio would make a simular version, I would buy it in a heartbeat.

@SpiritualDevil Год назад

Meh, to me it is hit or miss. I've had mine (black 2x tactical) for about six weeks now. The first week it went one week (without measuring 02 overnight), the second it went two weeks with the first week being full sun exposure for a whole day, and just yesterday at 17 percent it crapped out on me in full sun during a three hour walk with smart recording (i.e. not every second logging) and so my thoughts are that even though I have received the "infinity" symbol now and then, this is still an electronic device... Having something in full sun in a super hot place like paved walkways in San Antonio Texas might be different from full sun in a place where it is maybe a bit more mild (easier on electronics)... The truth is that this is a great device AND that YMMV depending on so many variables. For me? Overall I still have this one and I HAVE gone an entire week in Big Bend National Park registering walks and hikes and runs throughout the 7 day span and still had an entire 7 days that I used the device for in an at home (i.e. not in a tent directly exposed to high outdoor temps) for the next 7 days. 14 days without a charge? That is almost as impressive to me as "Never needs a charge" for my purposes.

No athlete myself but getting into more workouts. Great for running, cycling, tennis and padel, but not too great at doing weight training. Most Garmins aren't great at that in general don't want to correct reps etc each time I completed sets. Watch has a lot of cool tech for the price range in comparison to the rest and I have money left to buy some new running shoes and some kit for mountain biking. Bargain.

@TheJabberTech Год назад

For sure. Haven't come across any watch that can actually do strength training 💯. Garmin comes closest to guessing the exercise and does better with reps on push days vs pull

It is much better for visibility and as a tool watch usage. In my opinion, a watch should be visible in most of the conditions. This watch by its design does not show screen in night unless you press a button. Also it is better to not glow too much when you are not using it in the dark as it can disturb me in some situations.

@tfa8 Месяц назад

amazing how poor Garmin integrated the solar panel surface into the watch face, either it looks ugly reddish colour or it's s clear disturbing visible where solar is and where the watch stops. Awful to see such poor mechanic implementations. Take a look at a cheap Casio watch for $49 and see how they make it undistinguishable between solar and watch surfaces. Poor Garmin wannabes.
