What Customers Say

The Garmin Instinct 2 appeals to outdoor adventurers with its rugged, shock‑resistant build, long battery life that can stretch into weeks with solar charging and monochrome display that remains readable in bright sun. Users like its accurate GPS and a wide selection of sports and tactical modes, plus heart‑rate and stress tracking, and they appreciate that it’s water‑rated to 100 meters. On the other hand, the watch lacks amenities like music storage, full mapping and a colour touchscreen, and the interface is menu‑driven rather than intuitive. It’s a tough, utilitarian tool for hikers and climbers who prioritise durability and endurance over smart features.
