COROS PACE 4 black crystal or Garmin 265s

If budget is not an issue, then choose Garmin. It has better build quality. It has everything you need in a running watch and then some. My previous watch was the Forerunner 965. I’m now using a Pace 4. It’s more running focused and a little bit simpler. I didn’t need all the bells and whistles. I d

Ik wil mijn eerste Garmin gaan kopen.

Mocht je een net wat uitgebreidere Garmin willen en toevallig ook over een ING account beschikken, dan heb je momenteel de Garmin Forerunner 965 in de rentepuntenshop voor €434. Zit je wel net boven budget, maar dan heb je wel een enorm toekomstbestendige watch die alle functies (en meer) heeft die

Garmin airport staff said 40% of their sales are the Forerunner 165. Why is it so dominant?

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

Why did so many people can't 100% breakup with Garmins?

I have to pulled the trigger and bought a coros pace 4 yesterday, downgrading from a Garmin forerunner 965, sick to death of the Garmin ecosystem/app. Wanting some cleaner & modern, Garmin app is laggy and design looks old and everything is such a chew to do on the app and the fact I won’t be gettin

Any advice please Garmin 570 42mm VS 265s

When people say "stop being updated" about Garmin watches, there is a slight misunderstanding Unlike an Apple Watch or an iPhone which receives a big OS update once a year that added new features, Garmin watches don't work like that If the watch is "current" i.e. the "new" model (like the 570 or 970

Pergunta simples pra quem possui/possuiu um Garmin: quanto tempo durou o relógio de vocês?

Um pouco fora do que vc perguntou, mas ainda dentro do assunto: Seu maior risco é seu Garmin não durar nas atualizações de software do que em questão de hardware. Existe um grande debate entre "Você continua tendo tudo o que o relógio prometia no dia que comprou" e "Um absurdo a Garmin deixar meu mo

Tried apple watch and whoop for a month

I tried wearing an apple series 11 and a Garmin forerunner 965 together for a few days and these are my takeaways from it; Battery life: this doesn’t really warrant a comment here. I have to charge the AW daily and the 965 is 23 days Heart rate tracking: Almost identical. I checked during sleep duri

T-Rex Prices are Out of Touch with Reality...

I agree as someone who has owned both brands. My forerunner 965 was USD $600 and the case is plastic. The most expensive T Rex I can find on Amazfits website at the moment is USD$400. The Marq, on the other hand is $3200, theTactix 8 with the dive computer is $1600, and the D2 is $1400. Granted thes

Welke garmin?

Ik heb laatst de forerunner 965 gehaald via de ING punten shop. Vind het een erg fijn horloge en vind achteraf de kaart functionaliteit erg leuk. Merk nu dat ik vaker naar verschillende plekken ga en daar gewoon een route via de kaart inlaad en dan meer van de omgeving ontdek. Heb geen ervaring met

Watch switch Garmin v Coros

I recently picked up a forerunner 955. Last of the MIP screen forerunner series. Has the same features of the 965 but cheaper, better battery life, and (in my view) a better screen.
