Instinct 3 solar vs Fénix 7X solar

I can t decide which one to buy for the same price (459 Euros).

Planning to use it for tracking activities (workout/swim/run/bike) and ocasionnaly tracking SUP/kitesurfing

Want to go solar and MIP for battery duration, not looking after fancy amoled or touch screen.

A bit worried with feedback i m seeing on instinct 3

Also wondering if the small memory of instinct 3 would restrict me from installing apps like Hoolan when available (or any other app)

First Garmin so not use to the garmin stuff ....

would someone care sharing an advice ?

Thanks

You can get a Fenix 7x Solar on @m@zon for $615 and get a lot more features. That said though, if battery life is important to you, the I3 will provide you the opportunity for indefinite battery life. You just have to decide what’s more important to features or battery life. The F7x is a great watch with more features than you’ll ever need.

I have both. I wear my watch 24/7 and if I had to choose just one I would go with the Fenix 7x. But if you only want to track activities the Instinct 3 might be a better option for you since it is much lighter.

Finally went with Instinct 3 solar 50mm.
So far very satisfied !
