Outstanding replacement for my Samsung 5Watch Pro.
If you are thinking of exiting the Samsung Watch Eco System, this is your sign. I have had the Instict 3 AMOLED for several weeks now. Prior to this I have always had a Samsung watch (since 2015). I have grown tired of constantly watching my battery and having to charge at inconvenent times. I started looking at Garmin a bit ago, but it was always far too expensive. Enter the Instict 3. I puchased it not too long after its release and have found it to be outstanding... First off, the battery lasts 18 freaking days. As a person who loves data, and doesn't needs worthless apps and features that suck at executing on a tiny sreen, this has proven to be great. This watch has full color, plentiful watch faces, and features out the nose. All the basics of course, but more accessible and accurate GPS, altimeter, and health features. The morning health report, stress analsysis, and body battery scratch my data nerd itch, while all the typical smart watch features like text and email alerts, step counter, and fitness tracking feel like they are right on top and ready for interface.There is one thing though, that you have to get used to. THIS IS NOT A TOUCH SCREEN. It isn't. And, as someone who got used to that over the last 10 years, it took a minute. But no matter how much you think you need it, you don't. No matter how much you fear you won't like it or won't get used to it, you will. In fact, back to 5 buttons and ditching the touchscreen has virtually eliminted accessing apps on accident, starting or stopping processes that I hasn't intended to, and issues with water freaking out the funcitonality. Just take a minute to read the instructions and learn your buttons and your menus. Then... GIVE IT A MINUTE. The first 24 hours are a little freaky. The next 24 are a little annoying. After that, you miss it from time to time, but not enough to give up what you gain.Also, can we talk about the built in flashlight? It sounds so hokey, and I thought it was going to be dumb. But it is fantastic. I use it ALL THE TIME. Its a bright little bit of happiness. A double press on the watch has helped me find keys, look for lost items in dark places, saved me while camping, and allows me to find things when I am trying not to wake my my wife. It's a crazy must have that I didn't know I needed. I could keep going. But I have things to do. If you are on the fence, just do it. You won't regret it.Ver másVer menos
