Forerunner 970

Hello everyone, since many people seem to be interested in the new Venu 4 and there aren’t many user reviews yet, I thought I’d share my first impressions of this watch.

I actually downgraded from a Forerunner 970. The FR970 is a fantastic watch in itself, but I initially had a massive ghost-touch

I wanted to make a post because so far I’ve seen nothing but mixed to negative reviews about the forerunner 970.

After wearing for a good month now, I can confirm, this watch is absolutely amazing. I came from a fenix 5x plus and use for both trail and road running. I debated spending more to get t

which of these watches will be ok for my wrist? in my opinion the enduro is a bit too big. I have to have maps, a flashlight and sapphire - that's why I'm increasingly leaning towards the forerunner 970 (it goes with both sports and a suit, in my opinion its size is also right)

I’m (M41) very very new to running. I am overweight (think 120kg+ on 181cm height) and have only recently started running as a way to a more healthy lifestyle (combined with a diet overhaul).

What is your experience with the Fenix 8 (43mm) and Forerunner 970 (47mm)?

I am a female and hobby runner (ran a marathon). But I also like the gym, biking, occasionally hiking, and soon I’d like to explore kite surfing. I tried both watches on my wrist and I know all the technical differences, b

I’m looking to upgrade my watch soon and could use some input. My main activities are cycling, gym workouts, walking, and trail hiking. I’m currently using a Vivoactive 4 but want something with better GPS accuracy, improved sensors, and full-featured maps.

I’m deciding between the fēnix 8 (47mm, A

Hello everyone! I’m looking for some guidance on upgrading my watch. I currently use a Garmin Fenix 6S, but it’s been acting up—it sometimes partially freezes during runs, the GPS has become inconsistent, and overall it feels slow compared with newer Garmin models. I mostly run and walk (I don’t use

I’ve had my Garmin Forerunner 745 for almost 5 years and the battery is starting to struggle, so I’m looking to upgrade soon. My top contenders are the Suunto Race 2 and the Coros Pace Pro. (Maybe a Forerunner 970 if I can find a good discount.)

I care most about **software quality and long-term su

Current Apple Watch user (7) since og watch. Very much invested in apples ecosystem- AirPods pro2, iPhone 15pro, iPad etc I’m completely bitten by the running bug and and working up to a half marathon and very much so interested in the forerunner 970. My employer has a 20% discount as well. I guess

Let me preface this by saying yes, I know this is stupid. The Fenix 8 and Quatix 8 are basically the same watch, except for the Quatix having some marine capabilities the Fenix 8 lacks (that I'd never use). And my reasoning for this idea is simply that I like the two-tone bezel design on the Quatix
