FR570 Broken After 1st Charge

Super disappointed. Just bought the Forerunner 570 on Wednesday and of course popped it on the charger when I got home. It only had to charge for 20 min or so to have full battery. It was incredibly difficult to get the connector off. I pulled it straight out and was finally to able get it out with

265s, 570 or wait?

Garmin has confirmed that the 570 is the replacement for the 2xx series. There will not be a 270. So why wait? Your choices are 265 or 570. The general consensus is that although the 570 is an improvement over the 265 and adds new features, the price is far too high. A 965 costs about the same and h

Is the Forerunner 570 the worst choice in Garmin’s current lineup?

Hello everyone, when the FR570 was released a few months ago together with the FR970, there was already plenty of criticism. While the FR970 became noticeably more expensive compared to the FR960, it was largely praised for its immense range of features and positioned itself as a cheaper Fenix 8 wit

Stuck between two fitness trackers

I had the pace pro and now 570. I often regret the switch. Yes the Garmin feels more premium and the device has some extra features and stats. The reality is you will never really use them, even if they sound good on paper. The only think I would miss going back to pace pro is the body battery as I

Thinking about switching to Garmin

I have used apple watch during my “early” days. I also bought a fr165 music edition which I used for a year. Then I upgraded to fr965 because I am doing tri. Now from my experience, the AW can do what the fr165 can. The fr965 is def an overk!ll if I don’t do multisports. If you’re looking for a chea

New forerunner 570 42mm

It's not too exciting over the cheaper 265. Garmin killed any chance of this being popular with the big price increase. Still a nice watch, but when you can get a 265 for 150 less, most people will do that. I expect they'll have to perma discount the 570 if they want to move them. You basically paid

Thinking of switching back to Garmin from Apple Watch

This. I was annoyed with these releases. I really wanted a better instinct, with the 5th Gen. Then they go and put the 5th Gen in the 570 with no ECG so...I'm confused about why it's not in the I3. Just a lot of direction of the company I don't like, now. At least Apple is open about what it is. Gar

Polar vantage m3- recovery

Hello everyone, I have garmin forerunner 570, which is terrible for tracking sleep and recovery. Also, it doesn't count my walking through the day to my work load. I just walked 17km on fast pace, and it didn't counted as workout or towards my body battery.

My question: Does the polar vantage m3

I've been waiting for the new Garmin Forerunners for months and thought if I could switch my Fenix 7pro, which I have been using for 1.5 years, for something lighter and with Amoled display.. But honestly it's a bit dispointing wiht such a high price tag...

My Fenix 7 pro was purchursed at the pric
