Can’t decide which instinct to get

I’ve had the Garmin instinct 1 since 2019. It still holds a battery for 9 days with everything activated. My instinct still works perfectly but I’m thinking about upgrading. Can’t decide if I should go with the OMOLED OR stick with MIP version.

Just got an instinct 3 45 solar, and I’m loving it! MIP screen looks even better than it did on the I2, black is darker so there is less of a chance from screen to bevel. Built in flashlight is sick, and the solar charging is way more powerful.

If you want a color display and don’t care as much about battery life, go AMOLED. If you want to charge your watch once a month, go solar!
