Use this for all of my activities, including: - hiking -ski touring -strength training - running - cycling I don't pay much attention to most of the health tracking, but that information is there if you put much stock in it. The watch has held up extremely well. In the past Garmin watches have broken bands for me, but this one is still going strong.

Great watch
I have enjoyed using this watch. I don't use all of the features because it has so many, but the features I need work great! My only complaint is that sometimes the wrist based heart rate does not seem super accurate when I am doing activities like Backcountry skiing. Otherwise I haven't had any problems. I would recommend getting a screen protector.

I would recommend updating the watch through the Garmin Express program on your computer. If you don't already have it installed, it can be downloaded at garmin.com/express. If that doesn't resolve the problem you're experiencing, please get in touch with our support team at the following link: http://ms.spr.ly/6426tujnO?

Phenomenal
This watch has been a game changer. I have tried many watches and lastly was using an Apple Watch Ultra, but this watch has much better GPS, way better battery life, and overall reduces my screen time anxiety. This is extremely rugged, and able to withstand a lot. Highly recommend. I recommend this for any level of outdoor enthusiasts. You will be really happy with this watch.

Beautiful display. Inaccurate elevation
I had 3 forerunner 955s over a year and each one’s elevation gain was inaccurate. Glad they have a warranty. This one proved no different. Inaccurate elevation. This watch reads anywhere from 35 to 65 percent higher than other gps units. GPS is good and other features are nice. So if you don’t care about accuracy in the elevation department, this is a great watch. Otherwise I would steer clear.

Great expiring
This watch is a bit pricey, but it's definitely very complete. I'm a triathlete, and I think this watch has everything a triathlete needs.

Still a great watch
Even with the 970 out now, the 965 is still an incredible and fully functional watch for most athletes.

I have been a dedicated Garmin user for years, and the Forerunner 965 has exceeded every one of my expectations. The upgrade to the brilliant, full-color AMOLED touchscreen is a game-changer. My training data, maps, and notifications are clearer and more vibrant than ever, allowing me to read them easily even in bright sunlight. For those concerned about using a touchscreen while running, the mix of responsive buttons and the touchscreen provides a great solution. It's like having a personal coach on my wrist, helping me know when to exert myself and when to focus on recovery. The Forerunner 965 is very light and comfortable, with 23 days of battery life in smartwatch mode. Highly recommended.

This watch is great, it records distance, elevation, and HR very accurately. The OLED screen is very vibrant and easy to read. I have used this watch every day for the past year and a half and don't have any complaints. The battery life is long enough to last for multiple days recording with GPS all day without a charge. Great watch.

Love this watch!
I had a Forerunner 45 but decided to upgrade to the 965 since I have a 50k coming up and I wanted the extended battery life and navigation features. The watch has definitely delivered on both fronts and I like how easy it is to get courses on to the watch for my runs. There are plenty of other features but those are the standouts for me relative to my needs.
