Web ID: 22803796Great Running Watch
The Garmin Forerunner 970 excels with its exceptional battery life, lightweight design, and intuitive mapping features. My previous watch, the Instinct 2S, couldn't even make it through one of my ultramarathons before dying on me. I needed something with reliable endurance and the durability to handle my demanding workday—and this one delivers on both fronts. I've been pleasantly surprised by its performance overall. Highly recommend it to any serious runner or adventurer.

Great Watch
I have had this watch for approximately 2 months. I had the Instinct prior to this one so it has been an upgrade in all areas. I highly recommend.

Gamechanger
I’ve always had Apple Watches and wanted to get more serious about tracking my training for a trail marathon. I’ve never been able to track sleep with an Apple Watch. All of the other metrics such as training readings are great. I love that the watch can make workouts for me, I do utilize this feature. I get almost two weeks of battery with the watch in gps only mode, low brightness, and always on turned off. This is the best watch I’ve ever had. I’ll never go back to Apple.

favorite watch
This watch has become more important than a phone to me, love that i dont need my phone for runs but still have emergency alert ability if something happened. The flashlight, I didnt think I owuld use, but now use all the time to take my dog out at night. I also not just use the alarm on the watch so I dont have to use my phone at night or first thing in the morning. Really a game changer for me and its super lightweight. Favorite watch I've ever owned.

Love everything!
I bought this to train for NYC Marathon and I love it. Ease of use…touch screen…size of face…the brightness…and the countless data features make this watch a favorite of mine. 5/5

Forget conncting to your phone!
The watch is good BUT, the connection to Apple iPhone is ridiculous. The notifications can not be controlled or customized. If you just want to receive call notifications -- not other push notifications, you can't! When you set it up that way, it works vice versa! This means that you should either shut off all notifications or, must get all your phone's pushed notifications. Frustrating.
