The much-anticipated Garmin Instinct 3 is definitely the biggest fitness news of CES 2025. Garmin has brought the third iteration of its popular outdoor smartwatch to bear with new-to-the-range solar technology Garmin says offers five times more battery life than the Instinct 2 Solar.

I just got my hands on the new Garmin Instinct 3, launched at CES 2025, and promptly slapped it on my wrist to put the fitness tracking chops to the test: logging my entire day on the tradeshow floor, bopping from product demo to product demo while dodging meander bodies under harsh lighting.

Watches from the Instinct 3 series will be available to order from January 10. “Instinct 3 is the smartwatch you can wear whenever, wherever,” said Garmin’s Vice President of Global Consumer Sales Dan Bartel. “The latest lineup is built to help you follow your passions - whatever they may be.”

Garmin is ready to take the wraps off its latest fitness tracking smartwatches at CES 2025. The Instinct 3 lineup marks the first time the series has featured an AMOLED display and comes joined by a new solar-powered option.

Garmin produces more variations on the smartwatch theme than anyone else, and the Instinct series is the range that prioritizes battery life first and foremost (with a little help from solar charging).
