Great Value For The Money And Great Watch

The watch was a significant upgrade to other watches. It is critical to my health that I monitor my data and that it connected to Zwift. The watch has an excellent display and is easy to navigate for all the different data points. Particularly like the heart and sleeping monitoring methods.

Amazing Fitness Watch

Absolutely Love this thing. I use it every day, while I am running and to track my sleep and everything. It is extremely accurate, and I love how customizable it is. Definitely worth the money. I am thinking about upgrading for more features

Onboarding Is Terrible.

The onboarding is a pain. There is no clear path for ease of setup. I have to go to other forums and Google to solve the setup. But, there’s plenty of opportunities to pay for extra features. They make sure to let you know

Best Partner For My Runs

So happy with my Watch. Best partner on my runs 💪🏽

Awesome Smart Watch

I've been using the Garmin Forerunner 265 for about a month now, and I'm really happy with it. It has exceeded my expectations in several ways. I originally bought it because I recently started running, but I also kayak (rowing) and do other sports, so I needed something that could track all my activities—and this watch definitely delivers. One of the things I appreciate most is how customizable it is. There are so many features and settings you can tailor to your needs, which makes it feel very versatile and personal. Overall, I truly feel like you get what you pay for with this watch. It's been a great investment for staying active and tracking my progress.

Great Product, Need To Put The Golf App On The 265

It really is a great running watch. However, not sure why they wouldn't load the Golf functionality to this watch. That wasn't clear and that was one of the functions I used regularlly.

Fantastic Features, Still Unlocking Its Potential

A bit of a learning curve for me initially but now that I've been using it for a couple of weeks, no issues. Tracks everything great, sleep, steps, HR, distance, etc, I'm still exploring everything it has to offer and still working on figuring out how to play my spotify playlist from it.

Not Good Tracking Activity

I replaced my 6 year old 725xt with a Forerunner 265. The watch does a horrible job tracking my activities that are not specific with GPS. For example i will have over 6 miles of steps between yard work, dog walks etc and the watch misses all of this. My old watch reliably captured everything.

Yordi

Great watch, all the functions are great and I can actually keep track of my workouts

Great Watch

I finally upgraded from a base model Forerunner to this watch. It’s incredible! The screen looks great, the battery life is awesome, and the stats it gives are more than I can even understand. I would highly recommend this watch!!

Tubular Watch

I’m so happy with my garmin the only complication was with the meta ai app but that wasn’t even the garmin fault classic garmin W

Totally Disaster

No good, The worst purchase of my life. I didn't return it due to a lack of time
