I've used this watch for a year now and find it is not the best watch for a septuagenarian. After a prostatectomy I get up several times each night to go to the bathroom. Frequently the watch resets my sleep time to begin after I have been asleep for a few hours. It does not record steps when mowing the lawn or doing grocery shopping. Otherwise, I like the features on the face and the accuracy of heart rate when working out. Remarks the watch gives me on need to reduce stress or how much sleep I will need to recover help. This watch would have been great in most aspects when I was 20-30 years younger.

The Forerunner 265 Is Awesome, Love It
I'm very happy with the Forerunner 265. Bought this watch as a replacement to my old Forerunner 235 that served me well for the last 10 years. I'm really happy with the upgrade to the new 265,. Awesome watch faces available in the IQ App store. Lots of great awesome features I did not have in my old watch. Great Apps and upgrades over that of my old watch and I'm so happy I bought it. So far. I've used it for a couple of bike rides, and I've kept it on at night to monitor my sleep patterns. HRM and Pulse Oximeter work great too. So many upgrades that I just can't list them all here. You can't go wrong with this watch if you're looking to upgrade from an older Garmin model.

Impressive!
I just upgraded from a Fenix 5, and this blows it out of the water!!! My eyes are not what they used to be, so the AMOLED screen was a must!! Love the touch screen features too!

So Much Information
I am so happy with Garmin products and this watch is no exception. Such great quality and so much thought was put into what a user would like to see when wearing the device. Placement of the information is clear and choices in what is displayed is so beneficial.
