Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’ve been using my Garmin watch for a few weeks now and I absolutely love it. It’s incredibly comfortable to wear, even all day long, and the design is lightweight and sleek. One of the things I appreciate most is how easy it is to use — the interface is very intuitive and user-friendly. Whether I’m tracking my workouts or just checking notifications, everything works smoothly. Definitely a great investment!

Great watch. Coming from a Fenix 7 pro. I was very impressed with the functionality of the forerunner 165. Personally I prefer a more robust watch. The forerunner being 43mm it was a bit small. Other than that great running watch.

Garmin Forerunner 165 is perfect for runners who values convenience and durability on the go. It is ideal for tracking pace, distance, heart rate, and recovery insights

This was a gift and he love it. It has all the gadgets he was hoping to get in a watch and more!

Great watch, I really enjoy the battery life and that I only have to charge once every 2 weeks.

This watch is working great. I wish it were slightly smaller amd lighter, though.

I really enjoy how it track sleep and stress levels a little disappointed that I cannot answer phone calls or respond to text messages even though I can read them and see who’s calling but other than that, I think it’s a perfect watch.

Works well especially notifications from iPhone to the watch. I've had a Fitbit for about 10 years. Garmin has much better battery life (one week) and tracking everything and more that you would want tracked. Better wristband.

This was a gift for my wife to replace a Garmin Approach she thought she lost. She uses it for running. I can’t give details other than she loves it and she enjoys the positive/inspiring messages the watch offers to motivate her. She has also raved about the battery life.

Bought this for my girlfriend that runs both on a treadmill and outside, she ditched her apple watch and loves this watch!! So many great features and very accurate with measuring distance.

I got the watch as a surprise for my birthday!!! Great watch for the task needed for training and review my progress. Its easy to use learn the functions and review with exact processtion needed for goal to train as a new runner for my 10k and soon a marathon.

Best watch for running excerxising and doing physical activitys outside

Love this watch it came in very quick. My daughter says its very efficient and helpful to track her running journey. Defenitly get it if you're already thinking about it

I bought it for my husband and It has a lot of capabilities, reliable, easy to set and so far he's pleased.

Great watch! Very good for beginners into fitness and running especially.

The Garmin Forerunner 165 does what it promises — it tracks runs, workouts, and daily activity reliably. The GPS is accurate, and the battery life is solid enough for regular training sessions. However, the interface isn’t the most user-friendly, and it takes some time to get used to navigating the menus. It serves the purpose for fitness tracking, but it doesn’t deliver a “wow” factor compared to other smartwatches I’ve tried. Overall, a dependable device, but ease of use could be improved.

Absolutely love it. I’ve had over a month now and it is fantastic. Battery life last forever and it is great to track runs/bike rides. I definitely recommend this watch

Great running watch, charges quick with a long battery life

I'm new to Garmin watches but already it's a huge step up from my old Fitbit. I had looked at apple watches as well but the battery life of Garmin's greatly exceeds my Fitbit and Apple Watches. I love the stats it gives me, especially during/after runs and other workout activities.

I love my Forerunner 165. Its very comfortable for my small wrist and it can go several days on a charge.
