Although Garmin has already tried a watch that combines physical hands and a screen on the Vivomove series, this is the first time Garmin has launched a solid sports smartwatch with physical hands.
And Vivomove seriesIn fact, there is only one screen in the lower half, or it is split into two different screens.Instinct Crossover really makes a hole in the middle of the original Instinct screen, so that the pointer can float across the screen. This screen is irregularly shaped (roughly a square with four corners cut off), with a resolution of 176 x 176 and a size of 23 mm. Like the Vivomove, the pointer will change position depending on the scene of use, it can be flat in the center, a straight line in the center or even in some applications (such as completing today’s step goal) in “indicator” mode. However, Instinct Crossover does not have a touch screen, but uses buttons on either side to operate.
The watch itself claims to meet US military standards for water resistance, dust and shock, of which water resistance can reach 10 ATM. In terms of power, Garmin claims it can last up to 28 days with the smartwatch feature on and up to 71 days with the watch’s power-saving mode alone. If the GPS is turned on, it will have about 25 ~ 111 hours of autonomy depending on the number of systems and signals searched. The Instinct Crossover Solar equipped with solar panels is even more exaggerated: when the smartwatch function is active it can have up to 70 days of charge, and if it is only a watch it can be used practically indefinitely. When the GPS is turned on, it depends on the GPS signal and the intensity of the sunlight. There are 31 to 553 hours of electricity.
