    Nice screen and durable. Only compromise is the watch band did give me rashes on my forearm. I also do feel the optical heart rate sticking out a little too much where it gets uncomfortable to wear sometimes.

    Not as intuitive as I was hoping it to be. I was promised that it would sync to my Apple Health and Fitness Apps to help me keep track of my activity, to no avail. Currently have it up for sale on eBay.

      Some activities may cause irregular arm movement, resulting in the watch recording too many steps. This may include driving a vehicle, usually due to vibrations caused by rough terrain. Garmin

    Garmin - Forerunner 265 GPS Smartwatch 46mm

    Excellent watch with great features and performance beyond expectations. The Garmin 265 (46mm) fully met what I was looking for, both for workouts and everyday use. It is very complete, easy to use, with accurate metrics and a high-quality display. I was also very satisfied with the purchase experience: the delivery was extremely fast and the product arrived in perfect condition. I highly recommend both the watch and the store for their quality, efficiency, and reliability.

    Good product, clunky app, good for fitness

    Satisfied with the watch. Has a bit of a learning curve as the app Garmin connect is not he modt intuitive out of the box but gets the job done. Recommend this watch for people looking to monitor their fitness and health but not when casually into sports.
