Instinct 3, 45mm rugged GPS smartwatch, Black

Great watch, nice colourful screen. Tracks my weightlifting workouts, rucks , runs and walks. Great for sleep stats, HRV body battery and has loads of metrics. Solid and hard wearing so good for my physical Job. Battery lasts well.

Fantastic watch

Great battery life, super screen and well built, shame there's no maps but all in all I think it's worth it as the amoled screen is great and the GPS is amazingly accurate. Previous I had a Fenix 5X this is a great replacement at a fantastic cost and I find the button controls are much more practical to use compared to touch screen given it's a Outdoor watch.

The watch itself is fantastic quality with a crisp and bright display, with accurate GPS tracking and great battery life. The only issues I have with it really are with whoever designs the actual software user interface - I find that the app is clunky, and that you cannot modify several key settings on the phone. Navigation on the phone also feels a little counterintuitive and the contextual buttons keep switching puprpose depending on screen. If you've used a Garmin before then probably none of this is a problem and you've developed 'muscle memory' but as someone new to the ecosystem its frustrating difficult to figure out how to do something as basic as switch the clock to 24 hours, since there is nothing in the settings relating to it - you have to install and fire up a separate app on your phone, which seems absurd.

It's rugged, doesn't feel like you've got a block of glass strapped to your wrist that might shatter at any moment. The battery life and UI are great for me, simple but plenty capable, I went to a more full featured smart watch for a while from a big phone brand and couldn't stand having it on charge all the time, and found no use from all its extra abilities. I would, and have in fact, recommend Garmin watches to my family and friends.

Love it!

I bought this watch to replace an old Samsung Galaxy. The lack of a touchscreen took a little getting used to but once I got used to the watch it wasn't an issue. The battery life is excellent, 18 days charge is amazing. I have changed the strap as I don't like silicon ones, which is a personal choice. There are many features I haven't used yet. I do think this is good quality and good value for money.

As nice as this smart watch is, I couldn't wear it for more than half an hour before my hand started to go numb. I tried loosening off the strap a bit but it made no difference. I even tried a Garmin nylon strap that I already had, no change. I have an Instinct 2 and that's fine, so looking closer at the two watches I could see that new version's sensor is a lot more pronounced and it's that which is pressing down on the nerves in my wrist. Terrible design and makes it unwearable for me. Even after removing the watch, my hand was numb and even painful. I couldn't understand why no one else has commented on this issue until I did a wider online search and found a ton of complaints about this. So, be very wary when buying if you have relatively flat wrists like me. I have 18cm wrists by the way. Sadly, and I mean that as I really wanted to keep it, I had zero choice but to return it and will stick with my Instinct 2 and hope the 4th version will have this dreadful design changed. I hope this review helps people make the right buying choices.

Mükemmel bi saat , 18 güne yakın şarjının gitmesi çok iyi

Después de probar el Garmin Instinct 3 Black/Bolt Blue 50mm, puedo decir que es un smartwatch muy completo y robusto, ideal para quienes buscan un reloj resistente para actividades al aire libre y deporte. La batería me ha sorprendido gratamente, ya que dura hasta 24 días en modo inteligente, lo que permite olvidarse de cargarlo constantemente incluso con un uso activo. La pantalla AMOLED de 1,3'' ofrece una visualización clara y nítida, con colores vivos y buena visibilidad en diferentes condiciones de luz. Lo que más me ha gustado: 1- La durabilidad y resistencia del diseño, con cristal resistente a arañazos y bisel metalizado, que aportan confianza para usarlo en cualquier entorno. 2- La precisión del GPS multibanda y las funciones avanzadas de monitorización de salud, como frecuencia cardiaca, sueño y Pulse Ox, que me ayudan a controlar mejor mi estado físico. 3- La linterna integrada con luz blanca y roja es un detalle práctico para actividades nocturnas o de poca luz. 4- La integración con Garmin Pay para pagos sin contacto, que aunque requiere configuración con el banco, es una función muy cómoda. Puntos menos positivos: Al principio, la interfaz basada en botones puede resultar poco intuitiva y requiere un tiempo de adaptación, sobre todo para usuarios acostumbrados a pantallas táctiles. Además, la gran cantidad de funciones puede ser abrumadora al inicio y configurar algunas opciones como las notificaciones o Garmin Pay puede necesitar paciencia. Tips útiles: - Dedica tiempo a configurar la app Garmin Connect y personalizar los perfiles deportivos y notificaciones para optimizar el uso. - Ajusta el brillo y los modos de batería para maximizar la autonomía según tus necesidades. - Aprende los accesos rápidos de los botones para manejar el reloj con soltura. - Aprovecha las métricas avanzadas para mejorar tus entrenamientos y recuperación. En resumen, el Garmin Instinct 3 es un reloj deportivo de alta gama, con excelente autonomía, pantalla de calidad y funciones completas para deporte y salud. Su construcción robusta y diseño pensado para exteriores lo hacen una opción muy recomendable, especialmente para quienes valoran la precisión y durabilidad en un smartwatch.

Love this watch, has everything you need. I was looking at the data as I use for running and it has the same run features as the more expensive 265. The torch and redshift actually come in handy too. Battery life is fantastic, getting 2 weeks and that’s also using it for 1-2 hr daily activities

The best rugged outdoor watch you can buy! The steps, sleeping tracking and others features are just perfect and accurate!

I am using this watch for 10 days now. It has everything I wanted. It is giving me a great battery backup. GPS Accuracy is amazing. Will surely recommend it. Just remember it has no touch feature, it uses buttons.
