What Customers Say

Reviewers found the Forerunner 165 to be a thin, lightweight running watch with a bright OLED touchscreen and satisfying real buttons, and they praised its accurate GPS and heart‑rate tracking. They liked the wealth of training metrics and the ability to store music on some versions, and battery life of around five days was deemed solid. On the downside, it lacks offline maps, multiband GPS, a voice assistant and multisport transition features, and Garmin Pay support is limited in the UK. Some also felt the price is high compared with competitors. Overall, it’s a well‑rounded watch for runners who don’t need advanced navigation.
