Review: Garmin instinct 3 - So I wanna preface this with, I upgraded for the original instinct. I had that watch for 8 years, nothing was wrong with it but it was time for an upgrade. The instinct 3 is everything I loved about the original and more. The MIP display is so much better. It’s easy to use, the buttons were the same as my old one. The great update I got was battery life, going from charging once a week to once a month ( depending on use and solar charging ) the battery lasted a whole 100km ultra with everything turned on. I did debate between the 45mm and 50mm for a while before choosing size but I’m glad I went for the 45. Unless you have massive wrists you don’t need the 50mm. The sizing is great and it’s so lightweight I don’t even notice it. It’s a great watch, does everything I want and more.
Review: Quality product - GPS is so much more accurate than using my phone, should have bought one ages ago. Solar brilliant at prolonging battery life
