    The watch is the perfect combination of buttons and touch screen. It is simple enough that you can figure out a lot of the functionality playing around with it. I love how quick the GPS is to ready. You also can't beat the battery life. Garmin also is excellent with displaying stats and items you would want to see. The only thing I can say negative is I wish there was better how-to guides on some of the features...

    Had an Apple Watch 7! Got tired of the battery draining after a long run. This garmin goes 5-6 days without charging. Great for running and everyday use. It’s a garmin!

    I’ve never worn a watch before but this one feels good while wearing it at night and while running. The face got scratched already so be care while doing activities with it, otherwise I like the customization.

    The Garmin Forerunner 265 has been a game-changer for my running, workouts, and daily activities. Its accurate GPS tracking and heart rate monitoring keep me on top of my running stats, while the training metrics help optimize my performance. I love the customizable data screens, making it easy to monitor everything from pace to cadence during my runs. The smartwatch features like notifications and sleep tracking are a nice bonus for everyday use, and its lightweight design makes it comfortable to wear all day. It's a solid choice for any active lifestyle!

    I bought this watch to replace an Apple Watch so I could manage my runs. The Garmin is a huge improvement: workouts are much more customizable and can be set up on the phone; the display is larger and configurable; you can run without your phone and use all features. You can also customize the main display.

    Liked everything about this watch. Would 10x’s more recommend this instead of another Apple watch mainly dur to the fact it gives me approximately an 18-19 day battery life between charges.
