Customer Ratings & Reviews

Awesome Amoled. Great battery. Top tier running watch.

Switched from an Apple Ultra 2. Loving the Garmin when it comes to fitness tracking. As a runner and someone dabbling into triathlon this is a game changer when it comes to feedback during workouts. Also love the battery life compared to the Ultra 2.

Amazing watch. Screen is beautiful. Perfect function and very comfortable.

The Garmin Forerunner 970 is by far one of the best fitness watches I’ve had. I’ve had Corso and an Apple Watch. I highly recommend this watch!!

Pretty screen, larger than apple watch. Rugged design. Has a ton of features. So far no complaints.

This watch meets and exceeds expectations. The flashing light during activities is a great safety feature though does require more frequent charging. The screen on this watch is bright and crisp, showing message previews including pictures. This is my third Forerunner watch and I'm hooked on the latest.

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 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.

Love the watch, especially the battery life. It’s a game changer compared to Apple Watch. The AMOLED screen is great quality.

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!

I got this garmin right before a marathon and it didn’t disappointed me. Love it very much!

The amount of things you can do and how you can use this watch without the need for any subscription to workout or anything, leaves every other smartwatch, out of the equation.

I love this watch! Still learning all the ins and outs. It takes maybe an hour to charge but it stays charged for a good week. My chat and teams messagea go to it and i track my steps sleep etc

Love the better build quality. Battery lasts about 15 days. I seem to get a lot of notifications and it doesn’t seem to impact the battery life too much. Screen is big and bright. Speaker is loud and convenient to hear music during a run. Very responsive.

I’ve been using the Garmin Forerunner 970 for a bit now, and it’s easily one of the most advanced fitness watches I’ve owned. It’s definitely built for people who take training seriously—not just casual step tracking.

Fantastic watch for any runner, cyclist, or triathlete. Battery life exceeds expectation and data/metrics provided are great.

Great watch, perfect for staying on top of fitness/health goals

Great for all athletic activities, from general walking to all types of sports. The Garmin 970 has so many modes that you can track ervything in your daily life.

Amazing watch! Very lightweight in the flashlight is a much more convenient feature, and I thought it was going to be.

Love it! Way more accurate and advance than Apple. Battery life is incredible
