Very good watch, easy to set up, and highly accurate for running. In my opinion, it’s the best watch for running.

Very nice watchEasy to useBattery Life doesn’t last as long as I thought it would which is disappointing

I last had a Garmin Fenix 5s (purchased 2018) and it was slowly loosing it’s brightness. I purchased this watch for the Amoled screen, battery life and touch screen, which my previous watch didn’t have.It is sooo light, I hardly realise im wearing it. The screen is clear and you can customise it to your liking. I havent had it for that long….but I love it. Well worth the price and hopefully it will last as long as my last one 🙂

Small and subdued, but so much behind the scenes. Looks great, constant updates. Easy to sync music, so much activity tracking. It’s a beast, in such a good way.

Garmin Forerunner 165
Best price,and it looks good

Excellent quality from Garmin as ever, very comfortable and perfect size for my slightly smaller wrists. Best watch for regular non-obsessive runners who don’t need all the extra crazy stats! Much easier to work and better functionality and design than my old 645Music. Always connects to the phone when in range unlike the old kit!

Absolutely incredible! Does everything I need it to do, especially tracking my running, hiking and other fitness activities. Amazingly light, bombproof, and syncs perfectly every time to my phone. Could have easily spent another £200-300 on a more fancy Garmin, though I get everything I need from this watch.This replaced my Apple Watch Ultra 2, which was a great idea in principle, though I found it to be bulky, cumbersome, and the notifications drove me crazy (even after customising them to the absolute minimum). Probably just my preference though I prefer a sports watch to be for, er, sports, and to tell the time!

Good watch for price great functions

I’m a Garmin convert from Fitbit and never regretted it after what Google did to trash Fitbit when they took over.This Garmin is backed by a great app with sleep insights, HRV monitoring, resting heart rate monitoring and sleep quality to name a few. The step count is pretty accurate and the way it picks up elevated heart rate in exercise and stress is impressive.Primarily designed for runners, it gives hints and tips to improve performance and there’s a sleep coach too. I also like the interface and the fact I can choose my watch face (using my own photos – via an add on app). I’ve been using this for 6 months and having had Fitbits and 1 other Garmin (Vivosmart), this is the best I’ve used.It does all the other things like display texts and WhatsApp messages and its speciality is music control so it links to music and other similar apps on the phone.It has an emergency contact feature and things like sunrise & sunset times, walk tracking using its own GPS and elevation stats.I tend to charge this daily, so it’s always above 75%, and the only time it dips below that is if I have taken a five or six hour walk using the internal GPS tracking, which is higher battery use. Overall the battery use is pretty good.The reports after exercise are very helpful, pictured are the stats after a 7 mile walk. Not shoe (but always given) is the hours to recovery from an exercise which helps track when next to exercise and how hard.Finally I like its size – not to bulky on my smaller wrist and the colour is perfect for me.
