Pros and cons

According to our smartwatch expert

  • In case of an emergency, you can erase all your data with a push of a button.
  • You can charge your smartwatch via solar power, so your battery last longer.
  • You can switch between day and night mode fast and read the screen with night vision goggles on.
  • This large watch looks best on a wrist circumference of at least 19cm, so choose the smaller Instinct 2 or 2S if you have a smaller wrist.
  • There's no built-in music storage, so you have to take your smartphone with you if you want to listen to music during your workout.

Description

Make sure you have a wrist circumference of at least 19cm. The watch won't look as good on a smaller wrist. You can switch quickly between day and night mode and read the screen even with night glasses on. The watch also has a 'Kill Switch'. This allows you to erase your data in one go in case of an emergency. You can even charge the smartwatch on the go via solar power, so you can use it extra long. Garmin Instinct 2 is suitable for the outdoor sports enthusiast. The watch is resistant to extreme temperatures 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. Thanks to the built-in GPS receiver, you can keep track of your route while leaving your smartphone at home. The watch also tracks your health. For example, it measures your stress level and sleep quality. You can even view your incoming notifications on the watch, so you're always up-to-date. And via Garmin Pay, you can pay with the watch
