Wish I Bought it Sooner

I bought my Forerunner 165 a couple of weeks ago to track my runs. Wow! What a difference. Everything I need and more is now at a glance. Thanks for making such a great product.

Truly the best watch out there!!!

I was an Apple Watch user for years swore by them but charging them every freaking night and still dying mid day sucked!! I bought a garmin and I will never go back! Best watch yet! This was actually tracks my workouts correctly with an amazing app that makes it easy to track your fitness goals and it stays charged for 11 full days!!! I can’t recommend Garmin enough!!

As a 71 year old, some of the available features are too complicated… which is ok. I’ve chosen the ones I like, added a large watch face and am very please with the accuracy, measurements, data etc !!! Currently training for a 5K !! Long Live Running and Fitness (;-))

GOOD but not intuitive enough

Maybe I did something wrong somewhere on my watch but my sleep doesn't automatically record and I've tried a ton to get it fixed. This watch isn't too intuitive but I sill like it.
Learning more and more about it everyday...Support seems really good too.

Great Watch!

I really like the watch! Still trying to figure out some things, like if I can put the screens in a different order (heart rate, steps, etc). I also wish the app would let me create a hike challenge with my contacta. I think the watch is great though!

Battery life is one of the best features

I've owned this several weeks and holds a charge for at least 4-5 days and I wear almost 24/7. Looks good and functions better than my old Garmin. The display is great day or night.
