<p>Bigger isn’t always better, but this time it is. Outfitted with larger solar panels and the same level of GPS as the powerhouse fēnix 7 line, the 2X Solar is a step up in both size and features. The upgraded with multiband GPS gives the 2X Solar even more satellites to choose, vs. the multi-GNSS GPS found in the Instinct 2. More satellites means you get an even faster, more accurate signal in challenging environments. GPS data is used to tell you about your speed, distance, and location. Sitting under and around the larger screen are larger solar panels, giving the 2X Solar the potential to make charging a thing of the past. When it’s time to train, the latest generation of optical heart rate monitor and other sensors, pay attention to how you perform. On those days you want to train but don’t have a workout in mind, the morning report is there. Each morning you get a summary of sleep quality, recovery level, training readiness, and a personalized daily workout. When you need extra information, or motivation, the free Garmin Connect app lets you download training plans, review activities, track real-time weather, receive notifications, and much more. There’s even a white and red flashlight, making dropped keys and late night bathroom breaks, easier to navigate.</p><ul><li>Power Glass™ solar panel lets you go longer between charges, from 8 hours longer, to potentially never needing to charge your watch again – runtime is feature dependent</li><li>50% larger solar panels than previous Instinct Solar watches</li><li>Sun gauge displays solar charge, solar lux hours, and daily sun exposure</li><li>Multi-band signal reception and expanded GNSS support (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS and IRNSS) provide faster and more accurate positioning and elevation data</li><li>Tilt compensated 3-axis electronic compass shows your heading even when you are stationary</li><li>Barometric altimeter tracks ascents, descents and total elevation changes</li><li>Morning report summarizes sleep quality, recovery level, training effects, and provides a personalized daily workout</li><li>Training readiness, training status, and training load modes use your training history to let you know how ready your body is to train, and if you are overtraining, under-training, or on the right path</li><li>Elevate™ 4.0 optical heart rate monitor has more sensors for precise Pulse Ox data, and even works while swimming</li><li>Heart rate variability (HRV) monitoring helps predict recovery</li><li>Physiological data: VO2 max, performance indicator and recovery advisor that takes altitude and temperature into consideration</li><li>Body Battery™ tracks daily energy levels, monitoring what drains your energy (exercise) and recharges your energy (rest, food)</li><li>Garmin Pay™, make payments with your watch (if supported by your bank)</li><li>Built-in activity modes for hiking, biking, running, strength training (with rep counter), HIIT workouts, walking, swimming, golf, yoga, climbing and more</li><li>Pre-loaded and customizable workouts, you can even race past activities</li><li>TracBack mode navigates you safely back to where you started</li><li>Course navigation, via created or downloaded courses</li><li>Breadcrumb trails track your trek, navigate you to a saved location or entered coordinate (there are no maps for routing)</li><li>LiveTrack™, share your location and fitness data during activities (through paired phone)</li><li>Broadcast of your HR over ANT+</li><li>Sleep tracking and sleep score mode monitors rest, periods of movement, deep and light REM sleep stages and scores them</li><li>Counts flights of stairs with internal barometric altimeter data combined with step data</li><li>Incident detection uses sensors to detect accidents.

Calculated based on data from a heart rate monitor.

Displays calorie expenditure during activity, based on heart rate monitor data. 

Monitors pedalling cadence and measures pedalling strokes per minute.

A coded instrument ensures no interference between your chest strap and your watch, necessary if you are training in busy gyms or trails where other signals may be encountered.

Displays beats per minute during activity.

Automatically pauses timer when you stop or go below a specified pace.

Pauses the timer when slowing or stopping, and automatically resumes when moving again.

Barometer function helps forecast weather trends. An altimeter can provide one line of position for location on a topo map, useful if the GPS isn't working.

A basic set of map data that is included with the GPS. Basemap detail may vary from unit to unit.

Ensures seamless digital wireless communication between ANT+ devices. For example, data from an ultra-low power wireless sensor can be displayed on a bike computer or smartphone, then downloaded to a PC, etc.

Allows user to monitor training goals with either a virtual partner or alarms.

An online community where members upload, analyze and share activity data.

Attaches to your shoe, captures your running data (i.e., pace, distance), and transmits it to your heart rate monitor or GPS.

A POI (point of interest) is a specific location that someone may find interesting (i.e., favourite viewpoint, best coffee stop before the trailhead). The custom POI feature allows the user to load only the POI's that interest them onto their GPS unit.

Want an easy jog? A fast-paced ride? A workout with lots of variety to keep you on your toes? With programmable workouts you can tailor your training to match whatever you are looking for on a particular day.
