If you are looking for a smartwatch with a strong durability factor and battery life then Garmin instinct 2 will be on top of the charts.
Built Quality
One of the strongest points of Garmin Instinct 2 is one of the toughest and durable smartwatches that can be used for outdoor activities. The watch is water resistant and Garmin claims that the watch is shock proof too, as they have tested under US military standards. But, when tested in reality, many did complain of scratches in its outer cover. But all in whole the watch stands for its toughness to its very limits.
Fitness tracking
The Garmin Instinct 2 is power packed with over 30 types of modes for sports and tracking. The tracking sensors in the smartwatch are pretty good and can be held as accurate assessments too. You can get the detailed modes and their tracking types from the official Garmin page. That said the watch now comes with an oxygen absorption tracker too which means how much oxygen is consumed during a particular exercise it can track. The steps and sleep monitor are pretty accurate as heard from many. Along with these the usual of heart rate, steps tracker, ovulation tracker, menstruation cycle tracking all are present. If the person using the smartwatch is geeky or is hungry for data then will be surely impressed by the level of detailed data representation it shows in its tracking charts.
Pairing app performance
The Garmin smartwatch comes with Garmin connect which when paired will show the tracking data of the fitness, healthcare and much more. The app can also track and inform how much sub exposure the person is , this is new and an interesting function considering the watch gets charged under solar. The company is tied up with various fitness clubs as a result the workout programs are intensive , but the quality of life factor is missing to a large extent for the price one pays.
