Worth The Switch!
Ditched my 2nd Apple Watch: it wouldn’t hold a charge during marathon training and Apple refused a new battery. It’s necessary to pair my headphones with my iPhone instead of my Forerunner 265. During long runs, I listen to music, but may have to take a call from family, and my Bluetooth Shockz can only pair to one device at a time. Otherwise, I loved my music playlist working from my Garmin. I can’t read any texts during a run because the words are too tiny, but I do get a notification that family is texting me, often a needed boost, and I pull my phone to take a look. I love the stats that my Garmin gives me and that I can post it directly to Strava, where my coaches can analyze them. Programming a workout in Garmin connect on my iPhone and sending it to my watch has really been a boon: I don’t have to mark out 200 m, 400 m on our trails where we train, nor do I have to count, timed intervals, nor recovery distance/time. And seriously, it has shown when my HRV is out of balance alerting that I’m having an issue that may need medical attention. I wear it 24/7: the alarms I’ve set are necessary and work seamlessly. The alerts during a run keep me focused: eat, drink, walk, turn around, etc., are, again, crucial to my training success. Would love better compatibility with my iPhone, but I may switch to an Android with the greater productivity in my fitness tracking and assistance because of my Garmin. —Apple user since 1982.

Love My New Garmin 265
Went on my first bicycle ride with it this morning, and it is great, and syncs easily with my Garmin app on my phone. Love all the data! Also, bought snacks and a drink with it at QT, no phone or wallet or cash needed!
