Explore 2 turns itself on

I always shut down the device by holding the power button and choosing the shutdown option. However, there are times when I attempt to start the device on a different day, and it simply wakes up from sleep mode, indicating it must have turned on by itself beforehand.

Do you have a similar experience?

Never noticed anything like this with my unit. Three potential reasons come to my mind:

The power button is pressed inadvertently, for example when transporting the device in a cramped bag.
The power button is damaged and triggers by itself.
You fail to notice, that the device powers on when unplugging from charging.

Sometimes a have the same feeling. I my option starts the advice to quickly - and does not feel like a complete boot more like awaking. But it is possible the garmin had built the best device in the world ;-)
