Laufuhr mit gutem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis gesucht

Ich glaub da würde ich die Forerunnner 165 (mit Musik) empfehlen. Die sollte noch in deinem Budget sein. Ich meine die Forerunner 265 ist schon etwas drüber, aber vielleicht gibt es da auch mal ein Angebot.

Official Q&A for Friday, April 10, 2026

You can get the Forerunner 265 Music on sale now and then. But I'm cheap and have a Forerunner 55 and I just found shorts with no bounce pockets and bring my phone with me for music. Don't even notice it

bike computer vs. phone

I guess that was a bit beyond my test use when I borrowed a demo unit from the distributor. I had base maps loaded for a neighbouring towns trail network and once I got to town it’s recommended routing was a bit odd but easily adjusted to the couple turns I made on my own to course correct.

Garmin Forerunner 570 vs Coros Apex 4

I've just bought the apex 4 having gone from the 265. Ive been getting more and more annoyed with Garmin.

Pace Pro or Pace 4.

My vote says buy based on size. If you don’t need the maps, it becomes not relevant. Literally size is going to be noticeable, unused maps won’t be. Garmin is good. But I’d only recommend getting there high tiered watches because they are over priced for what you get compared to coros. Once you hit

Coros pace 4 - biggest changes

Not sure if that’s a good comparison as the 265s is outdated. Maybe comparable specs wise but I feel like if Coros is going to market themselves against the entry level garmin (now he 570), they can offer identical specs at a lower price like they do for most of their lineup And this is coming from
