Customer Ratings & Reviews

This was a gift for our son. He loves it. Works great and has very good battery life.

The battery life of this device is exceptional, particularly when compared to the Samsung Galaxy Watch and Apple Watch. Having previously owned three different Galaxy Watches, I can confidently state that I will not be returning to that brand after experiencing the Garmin. Although the interface is distinct, it is remarkably intuitive and user-friendly. This device effectively fulfills my requirements for fitness tracking, smartphone notification management, and timekeeping. I would highly recommend it to individuals seeking a fundamental smartwatch for monitoring basic workouts, vital signs, notifications, telling time.

Excellent product, it has tons of features, is lightweight, and an excellent screen quality with this new Amoled

Excelent for running. GPS is perfect. Confortable and the battery is lasts a ling time. Good with music.

Works great and the battery life is amazing. I can go for over a week before needing to charge it.

Great product. Easy to use. GPS so accurate. Better than other running watches

Best watch I honestly ever had, making the transition from Apple to Garmin was honestly & genuinely the best decision I made in terms for electronics. I train everyday & the fact that the watch can record your sleep & give accurate results for sleeping & running it’s a blessing

The gos tracking does very well. Highly reccomend this watch. Sleep tracking is a big plus.

Product is pretty nice no issues so far. Has a lot of nice features.

Bought this so i could track my sleep and activity. So far it's great!

Love this watch! It the best watch by far that I’ve ever owned. I’ve tried them all. The screen is the best, the tracking of workouts is great. Really good in the pool, on my bike and during a run!

I was looking for an upgrade from my 5+ yr old Vivoactive 3 while staying in the Garmin ecosystem. After comparing features to cost this was a really compelling buy especially when it went on sale. I use it mostly for running. The screen is really bright and sharp. The GPS locks on quick with minimal drift. Battery life is around as advertised. It keeps track of performance and health stats galore. The touch screen has no lag. After 2 months with 2-3 outside runs/week, its race predictor is still too optimistic at all distances. Its VO2 max seems a few points higher than expected. The glass got some micro scratches when I stored it together with keys. Definitely get screen protectors. After putting one on it hid the scratches completely. Overall, this is a great fitness watch.

Love this product. Great battery life and very comfortable

This watch is amazing. It’s not the most expensive Garmin watch on the market, but it does everything you could ever want without having to get a dedicated phone plan. My husband loves it. Definitely recommend.

The Garmin Forerunner 265 is excellent. I love the accurate built-in GPS and detailed analytics. It's lightweight and comfortable, even while running or sleeping. Highly recommended, especially for active users.

Bought this as a gift for my son, who is a runner in high school. He is getting even more out of his workouts because of it and is pushing himself even harder. The battery lasts forever in this watch (several, several days). A worthy purchase.

Best watch ive owned, had apple watches before but thsu garmin clears everything especially with tje battery life and consistent health tracking. Love it, will recommend

I got this as a gift for my boyfriend and he absolutely loves it. He says it has helped him track his sleep schedule and has been a great addition to his workouts. If you are looking for a gift for someone who loves being active this is it.

I recently switched from an Apple Watch to the Garmin Forerunner 265, and it’s honestly one of the best decisions I’ve made for my fitness and training goals. I was initially worried about the size difference compared to my 41mm Apple Watch, but the larger screen has actually been a nice upgrade and it doesn’t feel much bigger on my wrist at all. One of the biggest differences I noticed right away was the battery life. With the Apple Watch, I had to charge it every night, which always felt limiting. With the Forerunner 265, I easily get five to seven days on a single charge, even with regular GPS workouts and daily use. That alone has made a huge difference in how consistently I can track my progress and stay on top of my routine.

No more charging your watch at the end of every day. Battery life is incredible. The only downside I’ve found is the Garmin app on the phone, but the watch itself is great!
