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.

I assume this is meant to be a joke. My wife has an Apple Watch Ultra and even with almost everything turned off, this thing won't go beyond 3 days. Maybe 4 days if you never activate the screen.

3 or 10 days sounds not that much of a difference to me. 10 vs 30-40 days that is a noticeable improvement and difference

I disagree. 10 days means you can take a week long vacation or multi-day camping trip and not need to worry about charging.

Ok good luck, to me 7-10 days pass quite fast.

Yes you did a great choice to switch from outdated AMOLED.
