Q: Does it come with a charger

submitted by Joe - 6 months ago
  • A: My husband bought a forerunner 165 from Best Buy and it came with a cord to charge it but no cube. I’m assuming this one will be the same, cord only no cube.

I returned the watch after 5 days. I wore it all the time and it collected all the data I wanted and it was great... however, the display was too small for me. I am purchasing another model with a larger screen.

I've had it for 3 weeks now and it's been a very useful addition to my workouts. I've really enjoyed the suggested workouts function, the fluid tracking that adjusts to my activity levels and the live tracking that can send my locations to my husband when I am out by myself.

Bought it this morning, had to install a couple of apps on my android smartphone. When I wanted to install a new dial (non of the standard dials had dots for minutes) I got the message I had to update software on my forerunner, for that I had to install Garmin express on my windows 10 laptop. Downloaded Garmin Express app but it fails to install saying cannot install on this computer, pleas try again (and again and again and again). This is all so time consuming and frustrating and I regret purchasing it.

Not easy to use

I’ve had many Garmin and this one is not easy to use or figure out even after watching the YouTube videos several times. The buttons are all black - I’m used to a red button to press and start running. And I still can’t figure out how to get AVP (average pace per mile). I just want to turn on the watch and go!

i've had this for a month now after my boyfriend convinced me to get one. He had one for a while but I wanted to get into running and decided on this watch. The features and display are amazing. Every morning I wake up and check my app to see how I slept. I love how you can program workouts onto the watch as well. There is nothing I could complain about when it comes to this watch

I mainly use my watch for tracking steps and sleep patterns as well as heart rate. The smart watch features are awesome. Charge lasts multiple days and charges fast when it is depleted. Definitely worth the money.

Best Fitness Watch

I bought this the day before running my first half marathon and I can genuinely say this watch is amazing! Even though it’s one of Garmins more affordable watches it still had all the features you could want as an intermediate runner. While running the half marathon it kept great track of my pace and even would say each of my mile paces in my headphones. Thank God I had this watch when running because they ended up not putting a chip in my racing bib but because of my Garmin I had an accurate pace to give to the race organizers!

The battery life is great, but I like the features on my Apple Watch much better if the Apple Watch battery worked as well as the Garmin battery it wouldn’t even be a contest

Like Having a Personal Coach on My Wrist

5 out of 5 stars
MyNewLife - 9 days ago

I’ve owned a lot of fitness gadgets over the years, but the Garmin Forerunner® 165 is on another level. It’s like having a personal coach who actually knows what they’re doing—right on my wrist! The GPS locks in fast and tracks accurately, the heart rate monitor is impressively reliable, and the suggested daily workouts make training simple and motivating. The AMOLED display looks great in any light, and the battery life easily keeps up with my daily use. What really sets it apart for me is the seamless integration with apps I already use, like MyFitnessPal. I love being able to sync my workouts, track my calories, and see the full picture of my health all in one place. From tracking sleep and stress to monitoring training readiness, this watch delivers way more than I expected. Whether you’re a weekend warrior or training for something big, I highly recommend it. Worth every penny!

So appreciate the motivation and encouragement this watch provides. I only wear it while running, as I am too distractible to have anything shiny on me all day. But have especially benefited from the accountability it provides. Yay!! Happy runner.

The watch heart rate function is terribly inaccurate. The watch keeps disconnecting from the chest heart rate monitor. Almost impossible to use to keep track of your heart. Very frustrating and disappointing. I wish to return it. It has been a waste of money. The chest monitor also.

I bought this watch because I was dreading having to charge my current smartwatch far too often. This beats it with an amazing battery life and it's functional close to what a smart watch can do. An overall very nice watch with great features. My biggest peeve or caveat is that Golf isn't featured on it. I tried requesting the feature to no response and the most frustrating part is that the cheaper Forerunner 55 has Golf capabilities.
