Forerunner 570

Finally made the switch from Apple Watch to the Forerunner 570. I know the 265 is a better deal atm but I wanted the newest sensor and the 970 is too big on my tiny wrist. Happy with the watch already! Can’t wait for all the data and new insights ☺️

The new model did drop, in May of this year Its the 570 Garmin has confirmed that this is the replacement for the 265 https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2025/05/garmin-forerunner-everything.html Garmin has announced the new Forerunner 570, which is the confirmed successor to the Forerunner 265. Yes, you re

So happy I got it for around 28k instead of its mall price na Php 33,490. Muntikan ko na makuha at around 26k if hindi lang nagloko OTP ko for my SecBank card, which had another 2k limited voucher discount. Hehe. Switching from apple watch because i kenat with its battery life na.

With Garmin watches, it is not that updates have new features or a new version of look and feel. (Only Fenix and sometimes high-end 9xx Forerunners sometimes get feature updates). One exception was the Forerunner 255 getting a slew of activities to match the 265 (which came very soon after the relea

I have 570 and its in return period currently. Through my insurance i am getting 970 for $675.

I am running 3x per week, 4miles each session and 2 times HIIT. Although my plan is to increase this overtime.

570 is fitting all my needs as of now. However i feel of buying something once and using it

Dude… you definitely can’t compare the two… it’s a $700+ watch vs a $230 watch. It has its pros and its cons. I made a switch from Apple but I had an AW SE 2, so the change was not as drastic. I really like my Pace 3 though. The battery is solid (I get 8-14 days depending on GPS use). Battery is def

Somehow, the FR570 offers almost everything that 90 percent of people need. So, in terms of features, it's certainly worthwhile. However, the price, even within the Garmin portfolio, is a problem. It should cost $100 less, then it would somehow make more sense.

I'm planning to pick up my first Forerunner watch after getting more into running recently (I'm pretty active at the gym on the rower, stairmaster + weights as well) and my old basic Miband, while fine for the last couple of years, really isn't up to the task when it comes to running training etc.

The general idea I get is that the 570 is overpriced and for what I can get a 965 for price wise, wouldn't I be better off getting a 965? While 965 has maps (that 570 lacks), it won't receive feature updates (570 has received its first feature update just two days ago) and will slowly fall behind (p

Curious about the new running dynamics coupled with their new HRM sensor: 'The new step speed loss feature tells runners with the newly released Forerunner****® 970 how much they slow down when their foot hits the ground. Runners can also improve their form with existing running dynamics like stride
