Garmin Instinct Solar GPS Watch is rated 4.4 out of 5 by 7.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Will49 from The perfect all rounder Only had it a couple of weeks but surely the best all rounder for someone who is constantly active and doing many different sports. Feels indestructible but compared to a G shock which I have always worn, I was surprised how light and low profile the Garmin is. Strap is super adjustable which actually makes a big difference for a secure fit and to get accurate heart rate data etc. Battery life is brilliant which for me is a main feature. Easily lasts over a week with GPS activities on 3 or 4 days, realistically you'll get over two weeks. Widgets on offer cover all you need for activities and useful or interesting additional information for all the sensors and tricks the Instinct offers. No, it's not a really smart smartwatch but that's not why you buy this, I don't want another mini phone on my wrist. You can answer calls (but not speak into it), reply to messages with stock replies and control music. GPS locates in seconds and never drops out. Heart rate also seems very accurate and doesn't drop out or spike. Plenty of customisable data screens during activity and plenty of different sports on there. Sleep and body stats are cool, and work well with the Garmin app, not that this is something I'm focussed on nor what the device claims to specialise on. But these features are not a knock off copy they are still the real deal like you'll get on smarty pants watches. Overall it's brilliantly functional and uncomplicated, but gives you all the information you nee I guess the only thing you might miss if you are a serious runner is the advanced running metrics but you still get pace, cadence etc. Which is plenty for an enthusiast. Look forward to using some of the more advanced features for hiking when we're allowed back to the mountains!

Rated 4 out of 5 by glenyt from Excellent, easy to set up and use I have been using the watch for 2 weeks now, in winter it seems to last 4-5 days between charges, used alongside wahoo on indoor cycle and data seems very similar so heart rate monitor would appear accurate. It also pairs with Wahoo speed sensor which is handy. Overall, very pleased, it is very comfortable to wear, has a stretchy strap and this helps comfort.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Stiffy from It works for an idiot techniphobe like me I do not have testing requirements of a watch and the limited requirements I have are accommodated in this watch and the supporting app. Not used in summer yet to check the solar energy use, but very pleased so far.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Leebobs from Exactly the watch I wanted Love the Garmin Instinct Solar! As an ultra distance runner, I was looking for amazing battery life, plus all the usual garmin features. The Instinct perfectly fits my needs and I haven't yet had to charge it, after 4 weeks usage! I'ts bigger than some watches but so lightweight that it isn't a problem. It is also half the price of the Fenix range, and some of the other solar watches in the Garmin range. Perfect for me!

Multi Sport Use.

When using this product on the bike, is it attachable to the handle bars or does it need to be worn on the wrist. Thanks
Asked by: iblatch
Hi, I would say wrist only, I can't see how you would attach it to handlebars unless you want it slapping about all over the place.
