Pros

  • I have the instinct 2 solar and it had been a beast.
  • If all else fails for you go for the Instinct 2 or Instinct 2 Solar which is essentially Garmins flagship watch thats pretty much versatile for a whole range of activities.
  • The solar version has the potential for “infinite” battery capacity if you spend enough time in the sun.
  • The Instinct 2 Solar is also available for $239, which is a great deal if you can afford it and don't need a color touch screen.
  • I think you are right, probably a solar 2 is gonna be a good value at this point... maybe I can find one 2nd hand...

Cons

  • Also don't waste money buying 'solar' - it is just not worth it, regular one is sufficient for everything.

I think the instinct 2 solar falls somewhere in between, and you might be able to find one of those at a decent price now the new one is out.

I don't own an Instinct 2 Solar, but as long as you don't mind the increased chunkiness compared to your Vivoactive 3, it's one of the most full-featured Garmin watches in that price range.

A month ago, I came across the Instinct 2 Solar, and it seemed like the perfect watch.
