Ratings & Reviews for Garmin Instinct 2X Solar Tactical Edition Smart Watch with Step Counter, Heart Rate Monitor and GPS Enabled

Cool Minimalist

Love it! Everything I need. Waiting to see if the, 'stealth' mode works.

Great Value

For the price, this watch is truly a great value compared to others. More features than I will use, but love having the options. Did I mention battery life? Holy cow, this thing is a beast when it comes to battery life. Charged my new Instinct 2X Solar Tactical to 100% the day it arrived. Two weeks later it was sitting at 85%, you can't ask for more than that. If you spend any time outside in the sun, this watch will stay charged for an indefinite amount of time. I could go on and on. If you are...

Watch has awesome features!

I’ve had my Instinct 2X Tactical Solar a month now. Got it just in time for a trip to Greece. Took the charge cord with me but will not need it. After one week it still has 31 days of charge left.

Great watch!

An amazing watch in every aspect,words can't express how much I love it. I've been wearing it every single day since I bought it, not a day without it. It’s packed with features and has become my favorite, especially the torch light, compass, ABC sensors, storm alert, and more. I'm absolutely loving it. Thank you, Garmin!"

Great watch

I have had this watch for 1 month and it has been better than I thought. The solar charging works great. It has been 12 days since I charged it and it has at least 8 days left, if I don’t get it in the sun. I am not very tech savvy ( I fix computers problems with a hammer) but this watch is pretty easy to set up and use. I am very pleased.

1 year of use, so far so stellar.

I have had this watch a little over a year and it has been through much more than I would normally ask of a watch and has not even thought of failure. I have taken it hunting, swimming, hiking/trail running, skiing and it has even survived a 60 mph collision with a tree. I have used the AP Ballistics solver software at numerous shooting competitions and found it invaluable. I also regularly use the track back feature while hunting, as I tend to wander and get myself properly lost. Another in...

Excellent Watch

Exceptional battery life and features. This watch was purchased for my son who is an infantryman in the 101st. It is a great help to him in the field and with keeping track of his PT routine. The only downside to this watch is that it has so many features, it takes a while to learn the ins and outs. Highly recommend this watch.

Great watch

I went through not one, but three Fitbit devices. This watch is definitely a class above and far superior. Great app too!

Good value, solar charging stops when temp is 85d

Ok, for the money. Altimeter sucks, temperature not accurate

Great watch and navigation device

I bought fpr hunting and hiking but now wear almost everyday

Wonderful Tactical Watch

I recently purchased the Instinct 2X Solar Tactical Watch; and, I really dig it. I dig it for many reasons, but I will provide my top reasons: - Solar Charge: the solar panel is large and effectively sucks up the solar from the sun; hence, depending on the duration of my outdoor exposure, I’ve seen my battery increase to one extra day. - Display: Under direct sunlight, the display is bright, and the complications are easy to read. In the dark and low light conditions, the back-light ...

I wear it everyday for every activity much better than an Apple Watch in my opinion. The solar charging and tracking is great for backpacking/camping. I’ve had it a couple months and only had to charge it a couple times.

Awesome Watch!

I'm a big fan of all things Garmin. From nav equipment to bicycle computers to watches. I've had plenty of these. My Garmin Vivo active 5 was having issues from age, so I decided to try the Instinct 2X solar. Man do I love it!

Awesome watch, I only use a few features on the watch but it does everything I need it to do. It took some getting used to but I don't really have any complaints besides I need to wear it a little tighter than I'd like to have it read my heart rate and sleep, which it is what it is. Watch is great.

Like the feature set.

My brother has one and loves it. I have a Fenix 3 I really love and still use. I just happen to fall into this watch, price was to good to pass up. I have yet to take it into the woods but if it is anything close to my Fenix I am sure I will love it.

Great product for the price and does what you need it to do!

Because it’s a great product that works, and does everything I need, and everything I want it to do. The features are easy to figure out, and easy to control.

Instinct 2X Solar Tactical

Perfect watch for my outdoor life. Great battery life and lots of very useful features.

Meh!

I like the watch but it won’t give me my texts on it. I’ve done everything possible I even wiped it clean and reinstalled it and still nothing but other than that it’s good.

Amazing

I’ve had the watch for almost 3 months and I love every feature but I can’t receive text messages. Everything else from my phone will go through but the text messages.
