Why should you care about this model over the others? Simple – this big boy is not only the longest-lasting Instinct 3 piece in Garmin's arsenal but practically the longest-lasting smartwatch in the market right now. Yeah, you read that right. A full 40 days in smartwatch mode and over a week of GPS-powered workouts.

And, let's be real, solar power can extend that battery life to infinity and beyond if you've got the sun on your side. This baby's great for outdoor enthusiasts who can't abide by charging stations.

But it's more than a battery-powered tank – it's also a beast built to take a beating. With a water resistance of 100 meters and a rugged exterior, this smartwatch is perfect for tackling the toughest environments. And let's face it, when Mother Nature won't cooperate, the built-in LED flashlight at the 12:00 position will save the day (or night).

This pocket-sized, multi-tool can track a plethora of activities, from snowboarding and biking to hiking and even snorkeling. It's got top-notch GPS location and elevation data, awesome for charting your outdoor adventures.

Plus, safety features like fall detection and manual safety alerts give you peace of mind when you're out there solo. And if something happens, family and friends can track your movement from afar.

The Garmin Instinct 3 excels in fitness training and recovery too, with exclusive sleep insights to boot. Wanna know why you're tossing and turning all night? This watch can tell you.

In short, this watch is a near-flawless smartwatch for outdoor fanatics, as our Instinct 3 review pointed out. (Shout-out to myself for that subtle shout-out.)
