only overshadowed by the fact that garmin released the instinct 3 earlier this year, but i'm curious how the 3's amoled screen affects visibility and battery life, because my 2's mip screen is very crisp and more readable than my fr255 (though, admittedly, not an amoled screen) and a single charge lasts for 2-4 weeks (using GPS for 30 minutes a day).
i bought mine at costco.com 1½ years ago for this price (ie one-time sale) and as a runner it was one of the best deals (eg bang for the buck) coming from a fr245.
i favor my instinct 2 functionally over my fr255, but prefer the slimmer appearance of my fr255 (as the instinct 2 is a little bulkier). i wish i could transplant the instinct 2 display into the fr255, as they otherwise mainly function the same.

I see. Any reason you didn't get the Apple Watch or Android variant? Curious to hear your thoughts on that
Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank RaiTech
If your serious about fitness, Garmin is it. It' also has the best battery life
Thank you
It depends on priorities. Apple watches and Android watches work seamlessly with their respective phones and are almost like having a mini phone on your wrist. Battery life is usually only a day or so. Garmin is more focused on fitness and outdoor activities such as hiking or trail running. The battery life can last weeks and it can act more independent of your phone, with accurate GPS where there is no cell service.

I'm in the exact situation too.
