Garmin is apparently gearing up to launch a new smartwatch from its Instinct lineup. The Garmin Instinct 3 was just spotted in a new leak, confirming details like solar fast charging and repair costs. So here’s everything you need to know about this new smart wearable.
Garmin Instinct 3: What’s special about this smartwatch?
Garming’s upcoming Instinct 3 smartwatch recently surfaced on a support page on the brand’s website. This listing revealed its repair costs as well. The leak also confirms that the solar charging feature is returning on one version of the wearable. To recall, the Instinct 2 launched back in 2022 with this same feature on its Solar variant. The Instinct Solar 3 was spotted on the Garmin website in Spain, which listed it on a support page (Via NotebookCheck).
Based on what we know so far, there is a 45mm variant that will launch in black with the model number 010-02934-00. This variant also has a repair cost of 133.33 Euros. To recall, the Instinct 2 Solar had a repair cost of 128.57 Euros. In other words, the next gen Garmin Instinct 3 is likely getting a price hike. Last year’s Instinct 2 cost 449.99 US Dollars on launch, so the Instinct 3 might be hitting the 500 US Dollar price mark.
Unfortunately, the exact size variants of the Garmin Instinct 3 is still at large. But there might be a 40mm, 45mm, and 50mm opinion as well. Garmin could also launch a non solar variant alongside the solar charging version. The upcoming smartwatch will likely launch in early 2025 in multiple color options. Keep in mind that this is still just speculation at the moment, so take the release timeline with a pinch of salt and stick around for more updates.
