Review: Epic Instinct 3 Solar - I brought the Garmin Instinct 3 Solar after my Fitbit Sense 2 kept dying randomly through the day. I liked the battery life of the Fitbit and Googled other watches that have a good battery life and I chose the Instinct 3 Solar. I have been wearing it now for 3 weeks and 3 days, my battery level is on 92% - 37 days. During the week I'm in the office so if it sees any natural light it's during the hour I have lunch. On the weekends I'm outside more so it's a little higher. The lowest I've seen the battery is 89%. I will point out that I'm disabled and I do not use every feature of the watch past the walking exercise. The watch is nice and chunky and your not likely to damage the screen by accident. It was on sale when I got it and it was not much more that a replacement Fitbit sense 2 which was £229. So yeah definitely value for money. I do expect to have to charge it at some point, especially in the winter. But if you are someone who is outdoor a lot and active there's no telling how long the battery will last. I didn't think I would every use the built-in light be it's actually really handy! The Garmin app is very good but I have also used the Health Connect setting on my phone to let it also sync with Google Health as that's what I have been used to for the last few years.
Review: I love it - An excellent device,one of the best tactical watches on the market,extremely long battery standby,weeks instead of days lots of functions,sports & fitness to long to list I advise to watch YouTube videos on this device as i did that.heloed me choose this watch I'm ver impressed with it
