Forerunner 965

I picked up swimming several months ago. Just last week, I finally upgraded from my super old garmin forerunner 235 to a new forerunner 965. I was able to track a swim at the pool for the first time with the new watch and was stunned at how many calories that the garmin app and strata said I burned.

As a owner of several Garmin watches over years, currently have a Forerunner 965 I strongly disagree regarding the daily suggested workouts, they are mostly a joke. Garmin software is also so so, and the connect app is a mess. Garmin sleep tracking another weakness. So instead go for a Forerunner 96

Hello - I currently have a Garmin Forerunner 965, but I’m on my second faulty device in the past year and can’t justify giving Garmin more money. I’m wondering if anyone has switched to Suunto recently and enjoyed their experience.

I’ll primarily use it for general road running (I live in a city w

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

I've used a Garmin for years. The last model was the forerunner 965 and the optical heart rate sensor did not work well. Almost unusable. I had to use a chest strap. I was not satisfied with the build quality of the watch and the strap. The belt was deteriorating rapidly. The watch quickly collected

For me a strap is more comfortable, especially indoors. The data is also better, if you care. When I compared my Forerunner 965 to my Polar H10, the watch was a couple BPM lower and showed a slower HR response. The straps are EKG based so as soon as that electrical impulse is generated, the strap ba

That’s just not true. The chest monitor is significantly more accurate than my forerunner 965 sensor. Especially for shorter intervals and in colder weather

I've had mine since August. All the sports activities I recorded up 12 October (4-5 per week) have disappeared. The ring no longer records sports activities now, it just returns blank data and then doesn't even save that. Steps are off. Compared to my Garmin FR965 HR average s mostly seemed to be in

Garmin Forerunner 965. Which is way overkill for measuring sleep, but I bought it for myself after my 6 months of acute illness were over and I thought I'd be able to start running again. The Vivoactive or something similar would probably be good enough for these metrics.

I had the FR965, but I decided to go for the Vantage V3. When it comes to training load, Polar performs much better than Garmin because Garmin underestimates training in lower heart rate zones, so in order to achieve productive status, I often ended up overtraining. In my opinion, Polar also perform
