I have had the Instinct Solar, for 5 days. The battery life is exceptional, 3% battery depletion in every day, even when using the GPS for outdoor activities ( running), and about 3 hrs of solar charging. I had the instinct, and upgraded. The battery holds true, about 83% in five days. Also love that it pairs with my Inreach mini, I conserve battery by using the battery saver power mode when sleeping, but configure it to allow sleep tracking , and heart rate. Which are important to my usage. I trust it as a part of my equipment for hiking. Love that there is , an ABC , GPS solar watch that is reliable.
