If yes, so is there any way to solve it?** A: On mine, (Garmin Instinct 2 Solar Tactical black) notifications, calls, etc., reach the Garmin before my other devices - all Android, all Samsung, and Phonak hearing aids. I did need to do the initial Garmin set-up with my tablet and hearing aids off. I think it was a bluetooth/wi-fi priority issue. But once I got the Garmin set, I could do the other devices with no problems. I also keep the "Connect" app running in the background on my Galaxy phone. Not sure if any of this helps, but it may give you an idea for a possible fix. Good luck - I really enjoy my Garmin, so I hope you can get yours working to your satisfaction. **Q: what is the width of the band?** A: The Instinct 2X Solar Tactical band is 26 MM in width.

Thanks Jenny ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ he Ultimate Duty Watch – Rugged, Tactical, and Reliable *by on Reviewed in the United States February 8, 2026* "I’ve been using the Garmin Instinct 2X Solar for a couple weeks now, and it has exceeded my expectations. As someone in the military, I need gear that is reliable, and this watch delivers on every front.Top Features for Duty:Built-in Flashlight: I use this feature constantly during night missions and tasks. The red light is particularly useful for areas where white light isn't allowed, making it perfect for maintaining light discipline.Solar Charging: Being stationed in the desert, the solar charging is a lifesaver. It noticeably extends the battery life and keeps the watch powered up even when I'm away from a charger for long periods.Size & Comfort: Even though I have a thinner build, the watch fits very comfortably on my wrist. It doesn't feel bulky or get in the way during daily tasks or training.Training & Performance: As a longtime fan of Garmin’s training features, the run tracking is my favorite. Whether I’m doing long-distance runs or interval training, the data is accurate and helpful for tracking my progress.Verdict: If you need a rugged, tactical smartwatch that can keep up with a demanding lifestyle, this is it. It’s the perfect blend of a dedicated fitness tracker and a reliable field tool." ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Middle Ground Smartwatch *by on Reviewed in the United States July 31, 2023* This is the perfect activity watch/smartwatch for me. It can’t call or text from the watch itself, but those are features I rarely used on my Apple Watch anyway. It’ll still show you if you have a text, call, or any other notification but is geared toward being more of a great activity watch than a phone on your wrist.What’s great about this is how jam-packed with features it is. They took a ton of stuff that previously was only available in the fenix and epix watches and brought it to this instinct 2x solar. It has sleep tracking, activity tracking (with customizable screens for each activity), training readiness, heart rate, vo2 max, blood oxygen level, etc. Most apps charge money for the amount of detail this watch and app give you about your day to day and activities, but there’s no subscription on this. It’s all freeAnd it constantly checks heart rate. My old Apple Watch would check periodically but you could never glance down and see what the current hr was without tapping on the icon and waiting. With this watch it constantly is reading heart rate and keeps a graph showing the history (which you can have show on the watch face if you want).The battery is awesome, something like 40 days with how I have mine set up. And the solar charging actually works. I’ve heard that past versions it didn’t help all too much, but this one it really makes a difference. I added 2 days to my battery life from just a few hours in direct sunlight.The only places where this watch is lesser are the display and the navigation. If detailed maps and touch screen/oled screen are important to you, then go with the fenix or epix models. The navigation on this watch can be useful as it includes the trackback feature where it’ll guide you back on the path you came in on, line-of-sight tracking (keeps you on path if you have to go like down in a valley or around an obstacle where you might lose sense of direction), and you can even pre-load courses to follow later. However, it’s a pretty bare-bones navigation map. It has a pointer for your watch and a line showing the path and that’s about it. The epix and fenix watches have nicer displays, color, touchscreen, and more detailed maps which help a lot with navigation but you also sacrifice a significant amount of battery life for those features. And they’re double the price of this one.All in all, I think this is the perfect middle point for a watch. It has all the features from the top of the line ones that I need, along with crazy battery life and a decent price. If you don’t need detailed navigation but want great gps and activity tracking at half the cost of some of those other watches, this is a great option. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Durability and Functionality *by on Reviewed in the United States April 1, 2024* I've been using the Garmin Instinct 2X Solar in Graphite for a while now, and it's been an outstanding experience. This rugged GPS smartwatch has not only met but exceeded my expectations with its solar charging capability, built-in flashlight, and multi-band GNSS support.The solar charging feature is a game-changer. It significantly extends the battery life, ensuring that I rarely have to worry about charging the watch manually. This is incredibly convenient, especially during long hiking trips or outdoor activities where access to power sources is limited. The watch face is designed to maximize exposure to sunlight, efficiently converting it to energy and keeping the watch powered for days on end.Durability is a hallmark of the Garmin Instinct 2X Solar. Its rugged build can withstand all kinds of rough treatment, from bumps and drops to extreme weather conditions. I've used it in heavy rain, on dusty trails, and under the scorching sun, and it has performed flawlessly in every scenario. The graphite color not only looks sleek but also masks dirt and wear, keeping the watch looking new.The built-in flashlight has proven to be more useful than I initially thought. It's powerful enough to guide me through dark paths during night treks and convenient when I need to find something in my backpack after dusk. This feature adds an extra layer of utility, making the watch an indispensable tool for any adventure.As for navigation, the multi-band GNSS support ensures accurate location tracking in even the most challenging environments. Whether I'm in a deep valley, near tall buildings, or under thick canopy, the Garmin Instinct 2X Solar maintains a precise signal, giving me confidence in my location and route.The user interface is intuitive, and syncing with my smartphone is seamless, providing me with notifications, weather updates, and other essential information. The range of activity tracking features is impressive, from standard fitness metrics to specialized outdoor activities, all accurately monitored and recorded.The Garmin Instinct 2X Solar is a top-tier smartwatch that stands out for its solar charging, durability, and precise navigation. It's the perfect companion for anyone who loves the outdoors or needs a reliable timepiece that can handle the rigors of adventure. I highly recommend it to those seeking a rugged, feature-rich smartwatch that won’t let you down. ## Frequently Bought Together - Garmin Instinct 2X Solar - Tactical Edition, Rugged GPS Smartwatch, Built-in Flashlight, Ballistics Calculator, Solar Charging Capability, Black - Suoman 3+2 Pack for Garmin Instinct 2X Screen Protector, Anti-Dust Plugs+[Anti-Scratch] 9H Hardness Tempered Glass Screen Protective Film - AGVEE 2 Pack 3.3ft Charger Cable for Garmin Watch, L-Shape Braided Charging Cord for Fenix, Forerunner, Vivoactive, Instinct, Venu, Tactix, Approach, D2, Quatix Series, Dark Gray --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sg/products/534745211-instinct-2x-solar-tactical-rugged-outdoor-smartwatch-50mm-black](https://www.desertcart.sg/products/534745211-instinct-2x-solar-tactical-rugged-outdoor-smartwatch-50mm-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Singapore* *Store origin: SG* *Last updated: 2026-10-27*
