Great in every way
I'm very happy with this new watch, it is great with many metrics that I have never seen, the best in its style.

Love my 970!
Upgraded my Garmin forerunner 255 to the 970 and absolutely love it! The display is night and day compared to my forerunner and I love the flashlight! So happy I upgraded!

So much customization
I finally upgraded my trusty old FR55 to the FR970 and I'm happy with my purchase so far. The customization options can be a little unintuitive and daunting, but if you put in the effort to learn where everything is and set up the watch how you want it, it becomes quite easy to use. I'm enjoying the new health and performance metrics that weren't available to me earlier. The GPS and HR accuracy also seems to be a big improvement. I was worried about the battery life but this seems to last just as long if not longer than my old FR55.

Great quality watch
Bought almost a month ago, bounced between the Fenix 8 and Forerunner. Ended up with the Forerunner 970, 16 days of battery without using GPS. Highly recommended watching YouTube videos to learn about all of its features.

Amazing; but poor band
Fantastic watch; extremely accurate and great battery life. The stock rubber wrist strap is pretty uncomfortable and leaves marks all over my wrist. Fortunately, it was easy to swap out with the Nylon Ultrafit band which is infinitely better. Most of the features of the watch go way beyond most people's expertise, which is very appreciated. I suggest getting additional watch bands, and really diving into the settings for customization.

Love this watch!!!
There is probably so much more this watch can do that I have to learn, but so far it’s amazing. So easy to see and hear updates while out. Very user friendly, easy connectivity and sooooo pretty!!

Pretty nice
My husband bought it for me about 3 weeks ago and I love it! I am used to trying to keep track of my running time on a stopwatch on my old apple watch but this does it for me. Tracks how far I have ran, the time, and all great features I was looking for in a watch. I love the fact that I don't have to buy a training program it's tailored to my own personal stats.

So Glad I Switched
Had been toying around with the idea of getting a Garmin for a while, but didn’t know if I could do without my Apple Watch. I’ll just say this, I’ll never go back.
