    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.

    The battery life is actually long enough for this watch to track sleep for several days. The data and usability is far superior to my Apple Watch Series 8. The AW is decent a decent watch but this Garmin is a tool for those wanting to take training to the next level.

    First time using a Garmin product. It gives good information for when I go biking, and has a lot of options. Took a bit getting used to my way around the watch, but pretty straightforward. The battery life is really good surpassing my previously owned Smartwatches both ( Apple/Samsung ).

    Bought because I started running, chose over the apple watch because of the running features, heavier duty, more sweat resistant, should last me a long time

    Went from the Venu to the Forerunner 265. I really like the brighter screen. The interactive voice prompts help me stay on pace. I love the morning report that lets me know about my sleep and training readiness. Only Garmin for me.

    I LOVE This watch, the only thing that gets frustrating is the lower button on the right side of the watch—it always opens up the types of workouts if bumped
