Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great watch, light weight good metrics and I really like color. I'm getting a little burnt out by the lack of color options from other brands.

The Garmin Forerunner 570 occupies a unique, slightly complicated spot in Garmin’s lineup. Succeeding the widely loved Forerunner 265, the 570 inches closer to a full-blown smartwatch by adding a speaker and microphone for wrist-based calls, while inheriting top-tier data sensors like the Elevate Gen 5 heart rate monitor and skin temperature tracking. Garmin also upgraded the chassis with a sleek, lightweight aluminum bezel that finally gives the mid-tier line a premium feel. For dedicated runners and triathletes who want elite training metrics (like Training Readiness and HRV Status) paired with a vibrant AMOLED display, the performance and accuracy are undeniably spectacular. However, it also brings a noticeable price hike to $549.99, meaning it struggles a bit with "middle-child syndrome." At this price point, the total lack of real, routable offline topographic maps—leaving you with basic "breadcrumb" routing—is a tough pill to swallow, especially when you have to jump up to the Forerunner 970 to get them. It also lacks ECG capabilities found on similarly priced smartwatches. Ultimately, if you want a lightweight, premium multi-sport powerhouse and don't mind navigating without full maps, it's an incredible tracker. But if you need deep backcountry navigation or are looking for a bargain, you might want to look up or down Garmin's ladder.

When it was time for a new smart watch, I was between the new Apple Watch and this watch. After a lot of reviews and recommendations from my friends, I chose to go with the Garmin. I wanted to watch that was more accurate when it came to my workouts and running. Not only did I get that with this Wach, but I also get way more battery life! I go anywhere from 8 to 10 days without having to charge my watch. You’re lucky to maybe get a singular day out of an Apple Watch. I also love that when I wear it to bed it tracks my sleep cycle. And it gives me recommendations on when my body needs rest. It’s definitely helped me get on a healthier and more regular schedule. I can still receive my texts and my calls through the Garmin. Honestly, what more could you ask for? If you’re hesitant to make the switch for your serious about your health… Just do it.

Absolutely love this smartwatch! The Garmin Forerunner 570 (2025) is sleek, lightweight, and comfortable to wear all day. The Raspberry Aluminum finish looks stylish while still feeling durable. GPS tracking is fast and accurate, making it perfect for running, cycling, and outdoor workouts. I also love the heart rate monitoring, activity tracking, and sleep insights—it’s great for keeping a complete view of my health and fitness. Battery life is impressive, lasting several days even with GPS active. The companion app is intuitive, allowing me to easily review stats, track progress, and set personalized goals. Overall, it’s a fantastic smartwatch for athletes and fitness enthusiasts who want reliable performance and modern features.

The Garmin Forerunner 570 in Raspberry Aluminum is more than a smartwatch; it’s a statement. Garmin has truly outdone itself, delivering a device that seamlessly blends high-end aesthetics with cutting-edge performance. The brilliant AMOLED display is a game-changer, making stats pop even in direct sunlight. But the beauty is more than skin deep. The addition of the speaker and microphone finally brings true smartwatch convenience, allowing me to take calls on the go. For training, the multiband GPS accuracy is unparalleled, and the comprehensive recovery insights have genuinely elevated my running game. From the sleek 42mm design to the essential Garmin Pay feature, this watch is the undisputed champion of the wrist. It’s the perfect partner for anyone serious about fitness and style. A five-star, must-have upgrade!

The Garmin Forerunner 570 is a solid smartwatch that does most things well without really standing out. It offers reliable GPS tracking, accurate heart-rate monitoring, and a good selection of fitness metrics for runners and general workouts. The interface is easy enough to navigate, and battery life is decent for regular training. That said, it doesn’t feel particularly exciting or innovative. Some features feel familiar if you’ve used other Garmin models, and the design is functional rather than stylish. For the price, it does the job, but it may not impress users looking for something new or premium. Overall, the Forerunner 570 is okay — dependable, kind of pricey but not exceptional.

Great watch. Long battery life. The band is a little short for a man. Somewhat annoying that it has a proprietary charging cable. Overall, it’s a great choice. Pair with peloton but only to transmit heart rate, not to record information from the bike about the ride.

Everything I could possibly want for my training style, plus aesthetically pleasing.

I love this watch! I bought it as a birthday gift when it was on sale and absolutely love it. I was using a Samsung watch before but the analytics on this watch are far superior.

Upgraded from a Venu3s. This watch is so much better for my training needs and still gives a sleek fit.

Honestly really amazing watch so far, the features are exactly as described

Great watch, does everything as advertised. Great for keeping track of my runs

It was easy to set up and has so many usable tools that have enhanced the workouts.

[Employee of bestbuy] Battery life is bad and the screen would black outbwhen a phone call came in so never knew who was calling. The speaker is to lower to hear anyone very well. But the new running deatures are good but nothing really worth pay ypgrade unless you are a hard core runner

Excellent craftsmanship and a classic design. She receives compliments constantly.

Awesome !!! Bought this to begin serious tri training after much research! Despite mixed strava reviews, going with a different platform

Love my Garmin watch! So much more options then Apple Watches.
