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.
Waste of money

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.
Great for the track run feature

I absolutely love this watch! I would not leave this house without it. I swim, bike and walk and I love seeing my activities at a glance and in more detail on the app.
Great watch missing some key features

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.
Real good watch. All you need !!

I love the battery life compared to my Samsung watch but very complicated to get simple information. Even though I have to charge my Samsung phone almost every day, it is so much easier to find the information you need compared to the Garmin.
One word: outstanding.

The battery life is beyond good (still haven't had to charge it). After the first run I did with my FR165 the immediate feedback of data was a pleasant surprise. Reading before about the health metrics/data that it tracks was one thing...actually seeing and reviewing it in real time was amazing. The amount of data at your finger tips in addition to the training programs provided which are specifically catered to me based on my runs/pace, etc. I am very satisfied with my purchase - a great American product!
Enjoying it one month it

My Apple watch died on me during my first half marathon, so here I am. I'm really enjoying my Forerunner 165 so far - it's not as intuitive as my Apple watch and I still have to look at the button labels sometimes to know how to navigate my watch, but the insights are great. I don't think at my running/activity level I need whatever's included in the 265 and beyond. One downside is that my charger broke in the first 2 weeks and I had to buy another one, so that's annoying.
Great watch and Awesome running partner

Have had it for almost 2 months and even took it to visit family in El Salvador so it went on SEVERAL long hikes and excursions with me in rough jungle terrain- held up EXTREMELY well. Only charged it once on the entire 2 week trip and was able to get data for stress levels and sleep as well as recommendations for training on high stress/low stress days etc. Currently using the Garmin app Half marathon training plan to get ready for my first half marathon and can already see improvements in my runs. The watch automatically gives you the option to do the suggested exercise for the day or choose your own. So excited to use on race day!
Spectacular watch

My brother purchased this watch for me so I can record my Strava activity and VO2 max along with many other activities. I am very much impressed at the quality and all the features. I did own a Fitbit one time and somehow lost it. This is much better. Not only does it connect to my Strava app. It has an app by itself that gives a even more comprehensive analysis of my activies. I'm still finding out more and more of what this watch can do and it's amazing. I think a great selling point would apon purchase receive a free 3-6 month Strava premium membership. That would be a great sell. The app that you use with your watch can be viewed on your phone, laptop or PC. It even has its own community. This is the most accurate watch I have seen. Not bulky. It's light weight and stealthy. It took me a few hours to really get the buttons down so I knew how to effectively set things up when on the go. Just make sure to read the directions and watch some video tutorials. Doesn't take long. It even has a phone finder so when I lose my phone. I can hit a button for the phone to ring. I sorta wanted the music version, but this was a gift and I didn't want to look greedy. It does the job and does it well. 10/10 overall experience.

Nice that this watch has touch screen, but if you want to keep screen on always the battery life isn’t the best. The watch faces are really hard to costomize. If you’re looking to save some money, I had the 145 and it was honestly more worth it IMO. A bit disappointed
AS well as exected

I got this watch two weeks ago, and I can definitely say that the battery life isn’t as good as they say. Maybe I wasn’t lucky, but I have to charge my watch every other day during the week.
