    10/10 Compras que valen cada centavo. He tenido diferentes bandas y relojes de otras marcas y unas más populares. Y sin duda si eres una persona que está al 100 en el deporte nota la diferencia. Es otro mundo lo que ofrece Garmin y este modelo lo elije para no perder la pantalla AMOLED. La correa execelente calidad. Las funciones repito si eres deportista lo amarás. Yo lo uso 24/7 practico natación, atletismo y basketball y también lo uso en el gym y en serio, no te arrepientes y no hay forma de no usarlo o tenga una función que te aporte a lo que haces. El envío fue rápido y todo en orden la caja y todo. Lo que si compren protector de pantalla cuánto puedan.

    Wow – So I’m a certified triathlon coach of many years and I have also owned most all the Garmin watches spanning about 20 years. I can say, this AMOLED screen on the 965 is IMPRESSIVE. Its so easy to see, crisp numbers and very easy to read. I am ok with the metrics and battery life; what I would expect and feel confidant so far in the ability to track a full IM and anything less.

    Over all I am happy with my purchase. This watch does everything I want it to including tracking all my activities, being bright in the sunlight, and having amazing battery life even while always on. I get around 11 days of battery life with everything turned on always ( I do have a sleep mode which turns the display off when I am sleeping. ) I never have to worry about charging the watch unlike my prior Apple watch where I would get at most 1.5 days. The price could be better though it would seem you get what you pay for more or less.

    I have owned Apple Watch, fitbit charges, as well as the pixel watch 2. When it comes to fitness tracking, the garmin is by far the best. The multi-band GPS is super accurate for run tracking, and the stats are super insightful for all of the workouts it tracks. The most impressive thing to me though is the battery life, you can go weeks without even thinking about about charging. No need to remember your charger when you go on a trip. The screen is super bright and easy to read even in direct sunlight.

    The OS takes a while to get used to but once you do it becomes fairly intuitive. The golf functionality integration is also amazing…get distance to green from anywhere on the course and keep your score with ease.

    I love this watch.

    Swim workouts went from bad to worse. Sometimes it skips whole steps in the pool. Sometimes it advances mid lap even though I have disabled autolap and touch input is disabled during activities. Garmin updated how you create swim workouts in GarminConnect, which broke swim workout integration with at least two 3rd party platforms, namely Training Peaks and Final Surge. Now any externally created workouts show every step as a kick set. Garmin supports suggestion is that you just recreate all of your swim workouts that your coach gave you in Training Peaks in the awful Garmin Connect interface. Not a realistic solution. They need to fix their software.

    The touch screen is way too sensitive to water. I read reviews contrary to this before purchasing, but the screen goes crazy if I am in the rain or shower and drops are hitting it.

    It keeps forgetting my settings, like the races on my calendar, and I have to manually push them again from Garmin Connect.

  6. Recomendo, produto tal qual anúncio

    No soy un deportista profesional, pero digamos que me di el lujo de comprarme un reloj de estos y vaya que me ha sorprendido. Me estoy preparando para correr 5k. y ha sido de gran ayuda. Proporciona demasiados datos en cuanto al ejercicio que realizas. La entrega bien, todo bien. Lo volvería a comprar definitivamente.

    This watch does absolutely everything, the screen is beautiful, battery life is excellent and with only GPS tracking a few light activities, I was rewarded with 13 days of battery with it around 2% remaining, so quite simply put it has functioned exactly as expected. The watch body seems very light and comfortable – the silicone?? strap has perfect adjustability, and just feels “right”. I was surprised by little things, such as the “strength” activity tracking actually correctly detected when I was doing reps of various exercises, and you can track metrics like weight (and others) to review and inform progress, which you can correct/edit later if an error was made. Neato.

    Some minor perturbances if I’m being picky – sometimes the heartrate monitor is sluggish, which is not the best when you’re trying to observe quick changes resulting from effort/output in your activity compared to HR recovery time for example. Also, sometimes when you’re twisting your wrist to have the screen wake, it doesn’t, and you have to repeat once or a couple times more. Doesn’t happen often, and if it bothered me enough and I didn’t mind whatever increased battery burn-rate that equates to, I would enable the screen always on. There’s more little improvements they can make, I can list a few more, but I’m sure they will update and patch a lot of this stuff throughout it’s support lifecycle.

    All in all, such a solid product. Synced well with speed/cadence sensors, and other Garmin products like inReach Mini 2. It looks classy and is still pragmatic and functional. Doesn’t look boorish. Buy it, and you won’t regret it! Expensive, but what should something like this cost? It seems fair for what it does and is capable of.

    Bought as a replacement for an abused and overused Forerunner 945 that was showing its age (but not broken, testament to Garmin durability). The Forerunner 965 display and touch screen make this a significant step up and provides far more utility and easy navigation than the prior generation of screens. The functionality and battery life are fantastic and are a real help to me when planning my activities. I like that the watch turns on when you raise it toward your gaze, works well, and that at night the screen is dimmed and simplified. My only longer term question is with the charging connection, this has not evolved from prior generations, and I have found this to be the weak part of the design – sometimes the connections get dirty or the cable breaks and charging can be a pain – wireless charging would be an improvement.

    This is a great running watch, but it also has many other functions. I appreciate the heart rate monitor, stress monitor, sleep assessment, etc.

  10. Marques Brandão Costa

    Relógio esportivo que superou minhas expectativas quanto ao designer e ao que se propõe para corrida e demais esportes. Entrega super rápida, chegou três dias antes do previsto. Recomendo pelo custo e benefício.

    I’ve owned Garmin watches for years… I can’t even remember how many. My previous watch was still working perfectly have many years of use, but I thought I’d try a new one to see if the tech had gotten better. This watch has way too many features for me, but it’s easy to just ignore the stuff I don’t use.
    The most important thing to me is the accuracy of the GPS, and this one is excellent. That alone was worth the money to upgrade. The display is also super nice. I do like data, so all the new data that this displays on Garmin Connect is kind of fun, but mostly unnecessary for me. The UI is also a bit bloated for me, but is well thought out and easy enough to get used to. Overall, I’m just really thrilled with this watch. Oh…and it works seamlessly with the Garmin phone app and Garmin Connect.
