AMAZING! The best watch I have ever gotten. It has everything I need as a runner and way more! Works very well and is super accurate. Watch battery is amazing and screen display is awesome. Arrived on time looking perfect!

My husband loved his Garmin! He is getting very good use out of it. He loves the GPS when hunting, he doesn’t need his phone out. He also loves that it gives him feedback on his sleep and heart.

It's the best I could buy for my sport I was about to get depressed when I started training to be a runner and now I was able to buy my Garmin with you and it was the best thank you very much for everything you helped me

I had a very old Forerunner and after 10yrs the battery died which it is nla. I wasn't sure i wanted another Garmin, so I tried Fitbit, Galaxy and a different Garmin and none worked out. I finally caved and bought this Forerunner 165 and I love it. I wanted something simple and theres so much more on this watch then i expected. So many options, Running, treadmill, walking, biking, swimming, heart rate, music and tells you the pace, your averagepace, so much.. Also, the battery last days and even tells you the batterypercentage. Ignore the bad reviews, this watch is great. Just buy it!!!!

5day battery with daily 45min run. Charging time 2h. Great gps signal. Great sleeping tracker. Great notifications from phone. Very light and comfy.

[Employee of bestbuy] The battery life on this watch is amazing. The things that it can track is amazing. I love the sleep tracker.

This watch is very good for focusing on your workouts. I really enjoy how focused it keeps you apart from the outside world distractions. One of the great things about this watch is that you will only hav to charge it once and it maintains its battery life for almost tone week!!! I also appreciate the accuracy of the GPS tracking and how accurately it tracks your steps and your workout goals. If you purchase this watch you wont regret it.

First Garmin watch I've owned as I've been steadily increasing runs, hiking, etc. Being 52, this watch is perfect for tracking those. There are so many features on this watch that I've yet to explore. Fits great, light weight, bright screen and many customizable watch faces. Also, the data fields on the face... fantastic for a quick view.

Got this for my wife who is a marathon runner and she absolutely loves it. She was a fan of the Fitbits but says this watch is much more accurate and has more features.

The Garmin Forerunner 165 is a lightweight, affordable GPS smartwatch ideal for runners. It features a bright AMOLED display, over 25 sport modes, and solid health tracking tools like heart rate and sleep monitoring. With up to 11 days of battery life and personalized workouts via Garmin Coach, it's a great value—though GPS accuracy may dip in dense areas. A solid pick for everyday athletes.

I love it, it works perfectly and il the battery life is really good

The battery charges super fast. It measures sleep quality, recovery time after exercise, necessary water intake, and extreme cardiac damage based on intensity. Excellent cost-benefit ratio.

After multiple marathons, half marathons and countless other running events, I finally caved and got a Garmin watch. So far, the watch makes tracking my runs easier and I could connect it to the app I’ve been using all these years so I can compare times. I opted for a lower cost Garmin, because I wasn’t convinced I’d wear it. But this watch really has everything I need, and I’m intrigued by all the stats reported so I’m wearing it! And it’s made me better at answering my phone since it alerts me when my always-on-silent phone is ringing.

Brilliant watch for runners. Switched from 6 years of using Fitbit and couldn't recommend more. Highlights include running GPS map, great battery life and AMOLED screen.

awesome watch, just wish I could afford the bigger size!

It's a little smaller than my last smartwatch but the battery life and fact that I didn't use my Galaxy watch to its full potential is the main I reason I got it and I don't regret it one bit. Maybe in a few years I'll buy a bigger version of a Forerunner cause it just feels a little small on my wrist.

I absolutely love my Garmin Forerunner 165. The watch band is noticeably more comfortable than the generic device I was using before, which makes it easy to wear all day. It charges quickly and holds a charge for a long time. I haven’t tracked the exact battery life, but it lasts long enough that I rarely have to think about charging it, which I really appreciate. One of the main reasons I chose this watch was the run coach, and it has been incredibly helpful as I train for my first 5K. The coaching features feel encouraging and practical rather than overwhelming. I also love the stopwatch and the run mode features—especially how the watch alerts me if my pace is too slow or too fast based on my finish goal. That real-time feedback keeps me focused and motivated during my runs. Overall, this watch has been a great upgrade and has made my training more enjoyable and consistent.

I can use it everyday for a week without having yo charge it, also it helps a lot while working out.

Great watch for runners. It is the most accurate watch out there when tracking distance and times. Easy to use.

My husband loves this watch. Many features. The best one is the sleep tracker and he loves the long lasting battery.
