Absolute Bomber of a Watch!

a year ago
I recently upgraded to the Instinct 2X Solar watch and I couldn't be more pleased. The upgrade has given me much better analytics and the larger display provides me with more on-screen metrics. I also connected with Connect IQ and added some wickedly helpful and expansive watch faces. I highly recommend the upgrade!

Great but not perfect!

I'm still deciding whether to ship it back or keep it, as I can see the battery life is 20 days with my usage (daily plus a 1-hour hike), and the solar charger only adds 2% or less per hour.

Fantastic device

a year ago
This is my second instinct 2x solar, bought the white model to go with the graphite model. I drive truck and ride mtn bikes on my off time. I am impressed with the length of time between charges. The torch lite is very useful at work and the fitness features are all I need for tracking my workouts. Compared to some of the other models the instinct seems to be quite the steal. Very happy, will probably purchase the red model soon!

Broke

a year ago
It is way better then the original instinct solar. That being said they are producing a faulty watch the mine broke within 2 weeks yes under warranty but bought the Previous model due to my life's style. And I'm rough on things. The component that broke is the vibration motor it becomes an audible sound, not just vibration, It was able to break without me. Putting the watch in any tough conditions, which makes me worry that the next one's gonna break and where I spend money to buy quality. This is not typical garment. Move pretty upset with the company. They should get their product fixed before they sell it

Nice Watch but...

a year ago
It annoys me no end I had to buy a new version of the Instinct just to get what the first version should have been. Robbery they don't even give rebate or discount for previous owners of their prototype Instinct!

Great GPS and sport watch

a year ago
Only reason I didn't give it a 10, was that the menu options aren't real intuitive and if you don't use it often, can take a bit of exploring to find what you need. But hey, taking your time is what life in the outdoors is all about, so still gave it a 9.

so far so good

Capable of more as I explore the watch. Instructions would have been helpful past quick start. The app isn't helping much when I use it. Being solar has increased the battery life and so far seems durable for farm life. The event monitor decided to send an alert while I was working, changed my alerts. It does work well, maybe too well. I am curious to see how it likes using hammers and post drivers. Overall, I am liking the change from fitbit.

Rugged and Light

a year ago
I have had every Fenix since the first and the original Instinct as well. This, to me, is the best of the bunch so far! The large screen with crisp readout, light weight, and comfy band make this a no brainer for every day wear. Now I might upgrade with this summer's impending releases of new watches, but for now I'm set :)

All the features I need with battery life!

I'm happy with the product so far. It has all the features I need and more. The battery last over a month so I don't have to constantly charge it.

Love this watch

I’ve had it for several weeks, still on 80% because the solar keeps it charged. Had to read up on how that worked and still discovering the features but overall I love it.

All you need in a Watch with uncomplicated looks

a year ago
I bought this to have a watch that delivers instant and precise information about everything you do (or need to do) on a daily basis, for improving your health and performance ins different sports. You can read all the information clearly and every glance is there to customize your experience. The battery is insane, and with the solar charging you get the confidence that it will last for every activity you do! Every once in a while i thought that the lack of a color display will disappoint, but even the tracks that i saved for later were displayed flawlessly when i needed them, and even better, the two color display is crisp clear and saves a lot of battery usage. The rugged design will make you think you can wear it for ever (and i haven't stopped using it since i bought it a month ago) and it will deliver precise info no matter the conditions or adventure. This is basically an awesome watch that will endure and accompanies everywhere and everything you do!

Garmin 2x Solar

a year ago
Two weeks using it… I like the solar power feature keeping it going.. I look forward to that even being better. I like the fact you are not always having to stay connected to a charger for a watch, I do wish it was amoled features with solar powered. I do wish you could have different colors for a watch face. I’m happy that the solar power feature works though

Doesn't come off my wrist!

a year ago
This has been a game changer for me... I use it to help understand my sleep, keep my steps in check, making sure I'm getting them in, and also to observe my heart rate... all of that on the regular! This has been a genuine blessing to also not have to charge it every night like my old watch from another brand. This has been incredible!

Excellent Watch, Crazy Battery Life

a year ago
I picked up the Garmin Instinct 2X Solar as a replacement for a android smartwatch. This device does all the basics I am looking for and does them well: notifications, fitness tracking, sleep tracking. I haven't taken this backpacking yet, but I think this is going to be a huge improvement when in the backwoods for days away from electricity. Even with PulseOx monitoring and a lack of outdoor time (just coming out of second Winter here in Michigan), I am seeing 20+ days of battery life without a charge. My previous Android Smartwatches were at best 3 days between charges. This watch also feels very good on the wrist, and the overall device is very rugged. I do have to wear it on my opposite hand, as tattoos interfere with the HR sensor, but had the same issue on other watches. Have not yet tried the sticker trick that I used on previous watches.

Heart rate doesn’t work with tattoos

a year ago
I love the watch, it ticks all the boxes for me except the heart rate monitor doesn’t read through tattoos. I had an instinct tactical before, read through tattoos fine. I wanted to upgrade and went with this one, pretty disappointed. Now body battery, training readiness, and sleep score do me no good. I tried the epoxy sticker trick, works sometime, doesn’t most times (I am constantly having to adjust it so it'll work). I really like the watch, the features are everything I want in a watch, except for the HRM.

Connectivity Issues but Overall Good

a year ago
I have some connectivity issues with this Instinct 2X Solar. I also have the Tactical Instinct 2x and the Whitestone band Instinct 2x as well as the Epix Pro 2 Gen and the Tactix Delta. I do not have any connectivity issues with those watches. The features on the Solar are great.

Amazing watch

This watch is everything I was looking for and then some. I needed a smart watch that was tough and durable due to work reasons. I highly recommend the Instinct 2x to anyone who would break a normal smart watch. Im also impressed of the look, slim, sleek and this flashlight has been used more than I anticipated!

I bought this watch with the intention that I was going to use it to track my fitness for a half marathon. But upon wearing it, it is tracking my body so much more than expected. I am able to visually see my stress levels and my energy. It’s incredibly helpful!
