Thank you for the clarification that the watch doesnt need a phone couldnt find anything about what features are usable with out a phone on the garmin website.
That is really a personal preference thing. . . but I am like you. I did not want the tactical version (just not into the military features), and I actually liked the graphite color better than black. I find the grey easy to match and hides scratches better. I had it on the Instinct 1 and 2, no complaints it is my color of choice. Hope that helps, good luck!
It all depends on how many of the features you are using (primarily GPS and Pulse OX since they are the biggest drains). I had the Instinct Solar 1 and used to get about 25 days between charges. . . with the 2X it around 45 days.
@@joshwolden2929 Yep, when you measure your wrist it is the circumference. . . . so when I mention in the video that I have 6 inch wrists that is circumference of my entire wrist.
Eyes getting bad, I’m with you brother!
same here! the bigger the screen the better.
The non tactical version does a white and red flashlight…can also set to strobe.

@2:17 No wonder I can never set my watch. It was always stuck at 10:10 AM
Do you like the graphite compared to the black tactical edition? I like the black but am not interested in military.

@@UnboxingJumble That really helps me a lot! Thanks so much for replying. I've gone for the graphite option, which arrives tomorrow. Exciting!
2:05 wrong. The non tactical version has three intensities for the flashlight, plus red color.
The tactical uses green instead of red.
How long does the battery last in days? I hope much more than incstint 1
typical is 40 days give or take if you use more sensors (Pulse Ox, or longer GPS than average).

6:06 you have a six "inch" wrist??
Yes
Circumference, not diameter. did not know if you knew. At least that's what I'm thinking.
