I worn this watch every day after my purchase for 2 months now and absolutley love it. I made the switch from apple to garmin and could not be happier. I only charge it once every 2 weeks compared to every night. Also, I love the garmin coach that helps walk me through workouts which comes with the watch to help me achieve my running goals.

If you need a watch to run and want to store your music on your wrist. This watch allows you to leave your phone at home. Great GPS and training app to upload run data.

The Garmin Forerunner 265 is a good watch to own. I especially enjoy the distance traveled, pace, and heart rate that is applied to all physical activities. When lifting weights, it counts how many reps you have completed per set. The screen is a nice color that can be seen from afar and is not painful to see in the dark. I enjoy the messaging feature where I can see my texts and emails without having to check my phone. I mostly use it for swimming where I can track total laps, distance, and more. The sleep function reminds you how much rest you're getting and I have to say I agree with it, so far I’ve been enjoying the consistent reminders to get more rest. I would have enjoyed the map features when hiking and extra battery life but for an extra $150 dollars I did not see the point. I am enjoying this product.

Garmin 265 is best watch to buy with this price, considering triathlon mode available. For beginners aspiring next level of running and triathlon, makes easy choice with this price. All modes working well and didn’t see any issue. Tried running, swimming, cycling, give better results. Well Garmin 265 is awesome choice

Excellent for running. This garmin does an amazing job with all of the running biometrics. It will also record other data but its main job is running and it does it perfectly. Maybe a tad big if you have a smaller wrist.

Great watch. I had an Apple Watch SE which I liked but for running I definitely prefer this new watch. I’m still learning how to use it. Great sleep data and letting me know how ready I am for the next session and workouts.
