Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

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

The Garmin 265 GPS is a excellent runners watch. I wear it all day every day. It keeps my health stats as well as activity logs for my running.

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

This watch is lightweight, and has many features that my previous one did not. It’s perfect for training and tracking my progress!

Very easy to use. Not a busy screen like the apple watch. I like this watch very much. Battery lasts about 13-14 days from full down to like 7%.

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

Unfortunately, I had issues with the HRV sensor during workouts, so I returned it to the store without any inconvenience. The battery life is decent, and it offers a wide range of features that may still be useful.

Like the battery life and features with the garmin

Have loved this watch! Battery life is amazing! Love the features and helps me hit my goals! Great value for the price!

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!

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

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.

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.

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.

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.
