AWU2 vs Garmin Forerunner 165
Could not help myself getting a new FR165 just a week before I decided it was smart to also buy a used AWU2. Love the simplicity, buttons and light weight of the Garmin, and metrics like body battery. The AWU2 is drag along the usual a mess of 3rd party apps to present some of the metrics. I still g

Which watch best integrates with strava for tracking workouts
I recently bought the Garmin Forerunner 165 which is amazing. It tracks everything from Yoga to running/swimming all everything in-between. You can then sync to Strava using the garmin connect app. The 165 has a lot of features but is still classed as within their budget range. Not sure where you ar

From Apple Watch to Garmin Forerunner 165
I don't think you lose anything on the Running or Runna app side (if you carry your phone, you can be listening to music even if you don't have the Forerunner 165 music version). What you will lose is on the smartwatch side. For me, losing the Apple Pay system was a big NO (The list of Garmin Pay co

Garmin users - do the Runna audio prompts work for you?
If yes, what watch do you have? Trying to figure out what watch I need to have the audio prompts work as expected. My old watch use to integrate with the Runna app seamlessly but ever since I switched to the Forerunner 165 the Runna cues no longer work :(.
I'm specifically looking for the Runna pro

What Black Friday Garmin would beat Pace 4 / Apex 4
I'm very hesitant to get a Garmin because of their app, and the fact that they seem to be moving towards price-locking so many of their features. That said, from a pure watch comparison standpoint - if I could get the Forerunner 265 for $250-$300, I might choose that over the Pace 4. I would definit

Suggested Workout
I'm deciding between the Coros Pace 3 and Garmin Forerunner 165 for my first running watch. I'm leaning more towards the Coros as the supporting app looks much slicker and better presented. However, the one feature that I feel I would use a lot is the Garmin Daily Suggested Workout. Does this exist

Discussion Thread
!ping running How big of an upgrade is a Garmin Forerunner 165 from an Apple Watch? I mostly use the watch for fitness stuff, so it seems like the rational move. But are there any downsides I should be aware of? REI has 20% off right now so I’m thinking of making the switch

Laufuhr mit gutem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis gesucht
Suunto Run, Forerunner 165 music, Bin selber Team Suunto weil ich diese Abo Modelle in den Apps wie bei Garmin nicht mag. Gehen aber auch klassische SmartWatches wie Venu 4, Apple Watch, Pixel Watch 3 oder 4, Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 oder 8
