Forerunner 165

So eto na nga, I just got my Forerunner 165 this week and since rest day ko na, I went on a run without my phone and yung watch lng gamit ko. I was aiming for 5k only kasi test run lng but in the middle of the run my body felt good kaya I decided na mag 10k. As I was looking at my distance and nagul

I ran 5K earlier to also test my new garmin watch and how much its data differs from my mi band 9. Masaya ako na yung mi band 9 ko na una kong naging sports watch when I started running 2 months ago, e binibigyan pala talaga ako ng good data to track my progress

I started running 3 months ago with a useless watch that gave me nothing. A week ago I had my first run with the Garmin forerunner 165 and it's been huge. Knowing my speed, pace, etc is huge in my opinion. As a beginner runner, I'm not really able to feel the difference between something like 5.8mph

Honestly, it’s the sweet spot. The Forerunner 165 gives you like 80–90% of what most runners actually use (GPS, HR, training metrics, AMOLED screen) without the price jump of the Forerunner 265 or Forerunner 965. Most people don’t need maps, triathlon modes, or super advanced analytics, they just wa

Here Amazfit T Rex 3 takes the clear win! This was a tough 8’mile run with Fartlek and hill reps. At some points on my hands and

Better heart rate than Garmin?! 🚨 Another day, another test. The Race S comes out on top with a correlation of R=0.9945 🤯 This time against the Forerunner 165 which is about the same price here in the UK ☺️ 3.5 miles, 32 minutes, testing intensities from 55bpm up to 185bpm.

Comparing data and results

I ran 18 km (LSD) today and decided to use both my Garmin Forerunner 165 and the Strava app on my phone.

Strava says I ran 18.83 km, whereas my Garmin watch reports 18.02 km. Strava also showed a faster average pace than Garmin.

I’ve noticed this kind of discrepancy bef

I have no problems seeing the screen outdoors on bright sun and I live on a very sunny place. The GPS accuracy is the best I've seen for any watch. My latest ones were Fenix 5, Fenix 6 Pro and Forerunner 165. The OHR accuracy during exercise for me is good enough and it's faster to respond to effort

I use Garmin forerunner 165. It's cheap, accurate and also works for gym, swimming etc

I use a Garmin Forerunner 165, it detects reps pretty well. While it isn't completely automatic, you start a session, press a button to start your set, do the set, press a button to end the set. Rep tracking is usually accurate or 1 off at worst. Exercise detection is fine for your basic weight move
