4.4

Size options were praised because the 42mm and 47mm choices helped smaller wrists and broadened appeal.

Cons: ECG functionality, smartphone notifications

#2 Garmin Instinct 3
4.2

Size options are moderately positive, with 45mm and 50mm choices plus multiple configurations, though smaller users may need Instinct E.

Size options were useful for smaller wrists, though one reviewer found the smaller screen somewhat cramped.

Size options were a limitation: one reviewer criticized the single large size as potentially awkward for smaller wrists.
