Forerunner 265

I'm constantly toying between my AW and a Garmin (I have a Forerunner 265s) and always end up going back to my AW for the ECG feature, and just when I decided yesterday to wear my Garmin full time, I see this post so I'm switching again lol I had to wear a heart monitor for a week in January and it

On the flipside, I personally regret going with garmin. I have a fr265 and and HRM600. And turns out that there is a ton of data that comes from the HRM600 that I can't access. Not because it doesn't collect it, but because the software doesn't calculate it. If I want speed step loss, running econom

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.

Not my experience with at all, in fact it was the opposite. With every Garmin I owned a chest strap was required to get accurate data. So many issues with the wrist hr rate data. My last was the FR265, honestly it was the worst. I use the U2 and the heart rate data is maybe 1-2 beats off the polar H
