Do more of what you love with preloaded activity profiles for running, biking, swimming, strength training and more. When paired with a compatible smartphone, you even can stay connected to what matters to you with smart notifications, Garmin Pay™ and Connect IQ™ compatibility. Understand your body better with all-day health monitoring for energy levels, stress, sleep, Pulse Ox and much more (Pulse Ox not available in all countries. This device is intended to give an estimation of your activity and metrics; it is not a medical device).

Review: Good battery life - I have been using the watch for a while and quite like it. It is easy to use and its battery lasts at least 10 days. Its accuracy seems okay, however my resting heart rate seems a bit low. The only thing I wish it can improve is to automatically track activities as sometimes I forgot to start/stop/pause the watch during hiking.
Review: Two Garmin watches over the past three years - The title might sound alarming, but to be clear, this was not Garmin’s fault. My first watch was stolen after I accidentally left it at a college gym. I absolutely loved that watch. It was the Garmin Instinct 2S non-solar version. About two weeks after losing it, I bought the solar version, which is nearly identical to my original watch but adds solar charging and Garmin Pay. The images show are the solar option with the 40 mm bezel. I’m 5’9 155 pounds. My wrists are small if the watch was any bigger I’d look like a dork but I think the 40 mm bezel fits nicely. I believe the battery life given this watch is size is probably its main selling point for me. The non-solar option had me charging about twice a month for about three hours max. Pros Both watches have been extremely durable. My original watch never got a single scratch on the face, bezel, or body. The strap did show some wear over time, but straps are replaceable, so I consider that a non-issue. I also experienced very few software issues overall. Garmin pushes software updates frequently, so any bugs that do appear tend to get fixed quickly. The watch is also highly customizable. Activities, watch faces, data fields, and external sensors are all easy to configure. Connecting to chest heart rate straps or ERG machines is incredibly simple and reliable. The profile is slim, lightweight, and comfortable. It weighs about the same as my G-Shock, and I barely notice it on my wrist. It is also comfortable to sleep in. I believe the optical heart rate monitor is very accurate for everyday use and training. Compared to a dedicated chest strap, I usually only notice a difference of a few BPM. Most inaccuracies seem to happen when sweat or wrist pressure interferes with the sensor, such as while gripping handlebars or machine handles. Cons There honestly are not many. The biggest annoyance has been Bluetooth connectivity. On a few occasions, I had to manually reconnect the watch through my iPhone’s Bluetooth settings. That said, this only happened a couple of times over the past three years, so it was very minor overall. I also experienced a GPS issue a handful of times where the watch stopped tracking GPS properly during activities. This happened maybe two or three times before I decided to restart the watch, which completely resolved the issue. Another small issue involved the optical heart rate sensor. On two rides, I took the watch off briefly to clean my wrist and then put it back on. Afterward, the watch displayed an obviously inaccurate heart rate reading, around 70 BPM when my actual heart rate was probably closer to 150 BPM. The sensor corrected itself after about five minutes of riding, so it never became a major problem. Overall I am extremely satisfied with the functionality, durability, and ease of use of this watch. It is a fitness tracker first and foremost, and it does that job very well and very reliably. Yes, this is a lot of Garmin praise, but I was honestly a reluctant buyer at first and initially scoffed at the price. After owning two of these watches over the past three years, hiking up mountains, swimming in the ocean, riding up mountain passes sweating all over, and occasionally knocking or dropping the watch and its face on various sharp objects which would’ve definitely broken a more fragile watch, I’m sold.
