    Great so far. I planned on getting the Forerunner 570, but decided to spend the extra cash for the maps and other cool features. Will be utilizing more after I get clearance to start training again.

    I ended up returning this watch and decided to keep my 965 for now. The 970 truly is a great product but a bit to buggy for me. This is clear by the fact that Garmin is releasing many bug fixes which is amazing. Until then, I’ll wait till summer and see where we stand. Other than that, this is a lightweight, bright watch that is a great successor to the 965.

    Great buy! Great for tracking your heart rate with an external Heartrate monitor (I use myzone device). I was looking for a watch where I can view my heart rate zones while I trained for Hyrox. Highly recommend. Great battery Life!

    Way nicer than what I actually needed, but here we are. Lol. Coming from an Apple Watch, it’s literally night and day. Hate that I wasted a couple years and money on an Apple Watch.

    Enjoying the new analytics that I get from this as well as the improved screen resolution compared to my old Garmin. I've also, surprisingly, have found that I use the flashlight all the time!

    I upgraded from my venu 3 and this watch has so many added features and amazing battery life. However I dont think its worth the extra $250 from the forerunner 965 besides the flashlight and added brightness.
