Not everyone needs a smartwatch to join them on their outdoor adventures, but for those who want one, Garmin has you covered. To balance out its Fenix 7 smartwatches, which go up to $1,000, Garmin just dropped its updated, more affordable, Instinct 2.
The Instinct 2 series doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of Garmin’s more premium watches, but its starting price is half that of Fenix 7’s least expensive model. If you’re looking for a cheap, reliable digital companion for your activities and don’t really need things like a touchscreen, built-in flashlight or Spotify connection, the Instinct 2 will probably suit you just fine.
