Garmin Instinct Solar Groen Camo
Plus- en minpunten
door onze specialisten
De Garmin Instinct Solar Groen Camo valt op door zijn extreem lange batterijduur, vooral bij regelmatig zonlicht. Het horloge is zeer robuust, waterdicht en geschikt voor zware outdooractiviteiten. Dankzij uitgebreide sport- en navigatiefuncties is het ideaal voor avonturiers. Wel ontbreekt een kleurenscherm en zijn er geen kaarten of muziekopties. De batterij-indicator toont alleen resterende dagen, wat minder precies is. Voor wie vooral betrouwbaarheid, duurzaamheid en batterijduur zoekt, is dit een uitstekende keuze, maar wie smartfuncties of entertainment wil, moet elders kijken.

It can be easy to overlook the Instinct in Garmin’s range, with many drawn instead to the perennially popular Forerunner and Fenix lines, or the shiny smartwatch-style designs of the Vivoactive 4 or Venu. However, if you’re looking for a relatively cheap outdoor watch with a long battery life, solid sports tracking and navigation features, the Instinct is a sound option. The new solar edition of the watch is even more enticing because it offers the promise of increased battery life in sunny conditions, to the point where in Battery Saver mode it doesn’t need to be charged at all.

Garmin never shied away from releasing niche smartwatches, but the Instinct Crossover Solar is the most out-of-the-box Garmin watch to date. In fact, some people, including myself, might question why this watch needs to exist in the first place. It's more expensive than the similar Instinct 2 Solar and offers very few upgrades apart from the analogue hands. For hardcore Garmin watch owners and collectors only.

The Garmin Instinct Solar is the smaller sibling of the Garmin Fenix 6 Pro Solar and it comes equipped with a range of casual and hardcore features that many people who like outdoor life and fitness will find useful. The main USP is, of course, the solar charging and the Instinct Solar delivers on this front: if you happen to use the watch for outdoor exercising, as you most likely will, you won’t have to reach for the charger more often than every other week, which is pretty amazing for a watch that has an always-on screen, even if it's 'just' the memory-in-pixel variety.

For the outdoor adventurer, the Garmin Instinct is indispensable: built to military standards, it offers useful course tracking and rugged construction at an affordable price point. A vivid array of colors, a 100-meter water resistance, and a vented silicone band add to its back-to-basics appeal.

Lichtgewicht horloge met veel opties. Iets te veel waardoor ik nog zoekende ben na 1 maand dragen. Stoer en robuust. Ook voor de sportende dame geschikt.
