According to our smartwatch expert
The Garmin Instinct 2X Solar Graphite is a large and heavy 50mm watch. Make sure you have a wrist circumference of at least 19cm. The watch won't look as good on a smaller wrist. You can charge the Instinct Solar on the go via solar power. This way, you can use the smartwatch for an extra long time. Garmin Instinct 2 is suitable for the outdoor sports enthusiast. The watch is resistant to extreme conditions and shockproof. You can also dive to 100m in depth. With the VO2 max measurement, you can accurately track your fitness level. The Instinct 2X gives you insight into your recovery time after exercise. So you know if you're ready for a new workout. The watch also keeps track of your health. For example, it measures your stress level and sleep quality.
This watch is recommended for a 19 to 22cm wrist circumference.

Size is good, many functions, clear screen. Price is slightly higher, but still great value for money, still much cheaper than a Fenix or more expensive model

Battery life has lasted 4 weeks so far, and now I can finally start charging it. In combination with the sleep tracking and the flashlight, it works very well, the watch almost never leaves my wrist.

It’s a fantastic product. Accurate heartbeat measurements. Good display and great battery life. The Garmin app however can be improved.
