Instinct 2

The people in this comments are the reason why companies can get away with greed and become so rich... The Garmin Instinct is a very low process computer, which means it doesn't wear on battery as much as other devices like apple watches or phones, it should perfectly be able to last years without b

How have you chosen garmin instinct if your second requirement is mapping? You either need to settle with spending more money or going with t-Rex. Garmin are expensive because they have a tight grip over the market

So I pointed fault at that update in my complaint to Garmin. I am in Australia and our consumer laws s

What are you on my guy? I didn't say the Fenix 7 is better than the 8, I was mostly, deservedly, making fun the Fenix 8 PRO (key on PRO). Quick points: * The Fenix 8 Pro InReach uses the Skylo satellite system which are static satellites and have worse connection, the other InReach devices use the I
