What Customers Are Saying
The smartwatch offers accurate activity, sleep, and health tracking, with a rugged and lightweight design that provides comfortable all-day wear. The battery life is a standout feature, lasting up to 2 weeks between charges. However, some users found the watch band to be too small or stiff, and a few experienced connectivity issues with pairing the watch to their phones. The data fields and menu navigation could also be more intuitive for some users. Overall, the smartwatch is widely praised as a reliable and feature-rich device well-suited for outdoor activities and fitness tracking.

It has lots of features that are useful and easy to control, it's also not too bulky so pretty comfortable to wear while working outdoors.
From Garmin
This watch is fantastic on the job - the battery life alone is great and the GPS capabilities are perfect. The UI took a little bit getting use to, but once I got it down I loved it!

Love the watch, but app keeps resetting connection
I've had this watch for about a year and I love it. The app updated a couple of months ago, and since then it forgets that it's ever been paired with my watch every 1 to 7 days. I only realize it when I notice. I'm not getting text alerts anymore. Why is this so hard?

Excellent features on this watch Garmin
I love it, it never leaves my wrist. It tracks my steps, sleep, and exercises. I’m in love with this watch and I can’t thank the garmin team for creating such fine watch craftsmanship. 10/10 would buy again

Pretty user friendly
I from a 4Runner 35 to my new Instinct 2s. It does struggle sometimes finding GPS as I live in a mountainous area but other than that I'm finding it quite fun and rather entertaining at times. I'm a senior citizen but quite active and find the features are just right for the things I'm most interested in. One of the most amazing things is the battery stays charged for days. I am truly enjoying my new instinct

Good product but needed a Magnifying Glass to read
Purchased for a utility watch. Good battery life with quick recharge….

Easy to use
I was a user of another company's trackers since 2011 . Two units ago, my tracker died after less than 3 years. The last lasted 14 months. My husband has had a garmin and suggested I switch companies. Glad I did. The instinct 2s has information handy that i find useful. I am rather surprised at that because I don't necessarily like technology. I use the alerts for texts and notifications. The one I like the best is to notify me that sunrise is 30 minutes away.... legal hunting. I als...

Thank you for your review.
This is watch is everything I need. It is the most simple and minimalist Garmin watch. I use it for connecting to strava on bikes rides and runs. I would recommend this for anyone who wants something simple but still had all the common capabilities or just wants a watch to track yourself on strava. There are a few cons - this is not the watch for you if you if you want maps connectivity. I would get a edge compyter for that if cycling. I wasn't looking for that feature tho but I know some may b...

Still Making Up My Mind
I have used only the basic functions of the watch, but they seem to work well. I like the Garmin Connect app that shows useful (and colorful) summaries of my walks and heart function. I have found the four buttons on the watch somewhat confusing, but I'm slowly getting used to them and may eventually even figure out how to access functions I am interested in. I printed out the 116-page user manual in the hope of finding those functions. Garmin crams many features into this watch, and, for me...

Amazing watch
It just works, unlike a lot of other brands. Accurate HR, miles and speed. Really detailed maps. App is great as well, fast to sync. Durable, I've crashed a few times mountain biking and the face is still scratch free. Solid basic watch without unneeded features.
From Garmin
Perfect for beginners
This is the first Garmin watch I have owned. I love it as a beginner's watch! I rated 4 star because the battery drains so fast when doing any activity tracking. Also, it doesn't quite match other trackers (like my phone or alltrails) in regards to distance? Not sure why that is.

Thank you for your review.
Enjoying my drvice
I got the watch a few weeks ago. I enjoy how easy it is to set up and start to track. Mostly love the fact that I do not have to charge it ever day!

Thank you for your review.
Absolute garbage
The watch won't stay connected to my phone. Ten times every day I have to go through the tedious process to connect my watch, again, to the phone. The process usually fails the first time and is slightly different. When it does connect the data on the phone is missing much of the data on the watch. For example, the watch has days of sleep data, but the phone app has no sleep data, despite supposedly syncing. Sometimes the pairing lasts only a few minutes before the Garmin software "forgets" my ...

Awesome
Exactly what I was looking for. I work on a boat and being able to access tide charts on my watch is amazing.
