If you’re looking for a smartwatch to upgrade to, then now is a great time to select one because Amazon is having its Big Spring Sale, where you can find discounts on watches like this Garmin Instinct 2X Solar.
Normally, the Garmin Instinct 2X Solar retails for $449.99 at its full price. However, the Spring sale has brought that final price down to just $289.99. This is the lowest price this watch has ever been so you know it’s a great deal. With the discount being 36% off the regular price, that saves you a total of $160.
In terms of features, the Instinct 2X Solar has one major advantage over other smartwatches, and that’s the battery life. This is a Garmin smartwatch, so the battery life is already going to be pretty good. That being said, the Solar charging capabilities are going to push that battery life out even further. This is perfect for outdoorsy people who like to go camping or hiking for multiple days.
On average, you can expect about 40 days’ worth of battery life in smartwatch mode. Garmin boasts potentially unlimited battery usage with solar charging, though this does depend on the watch getting at least 3 hours of direct sunlight per day. In GPS mode, the watch typically gets around 60 hours, and up to 145 hours with solar charging. These are great battery life estimates. The Instinct 2X Solar also provides 24/7 health and wellness tracking, built-in apps, smart notifications, and even a built-in flashlight so you can find things in the dark.
The Instinct 2X Solar is also designed to be rugged, so it can withstand more than the usual drops and dings.
