First Look: Garmin Instinct Now Lasts Longer in the Backcountry, Thanks to Solar Charging

According to Garmin, the new solar Instinct boasts up to 24 days in smartwatch mode while worn indoors, and more than 50 days with sufficient solar exposure. I haven’t had my solar Instinct long enough to test this, but in theory, its battery life is unlimited if your watch gets enough sunshine while in Battery Saver mode.

Garmin Instinct® 2X Solar

Whatever you do, own it with Instinct 2X Solar. This bold, rugged GPS smartwatch is tough enough to keep up with you and unique enough to fit your style. Plus, solar charging gives you unlimited battery life in smartwatch mode when exposed to 3 hours of direct sunlight (50,000 lux) per day. When the sun sets, use the built-in LED flashlight to keep going and stay visible. Do more of what you love with preloaded activity profiles for running, biking, swimming, strength training and more.
