- Forerunner 970
Product details
Web ID: 22803796Really enjoying this feature packed watch
Bought this watch because I am planning on doing my first triathlon (picked a doozy in the 70.3 Ironman - imindanger.jpg) and wanted some help with training, tracking expenditure/recovery and a few other features that called out to me. I am coming from the vivoactive 3 and this watch is miles ahead of that one. The battery life, the screen, the features. Very happy with my purchase.

Love my 970
Good battery life. Lots of watch faces to customize the look. Can connect to ant+ devices and Bluetooth. Will be able to see my CGM readings with IQ Connect app.

Fantastic watch
I love this watch. It has (almost*) everything you could want in a GPS fitness watch. The display is beautiful, the UI is smooth and convenient, the fitness and health tracking is outstanding, and it sits comfortably on the wrist without being too bulky. *There are only two things lacking for me with this watch, that SHOULD be easy fixes with a software update. 1. Golf Activity - This watch needs to show the full hole like the Fenix and S70. It has the same display and touch capabilities and same coding framework as Fenix so there's no reason to gatekeep this feature. Please provide a software update to enable this. 2. Watch Faces - I'd like to see more watch faces available, particularly all the the other compatible Garmin stock faces. It's not the same getting a recreated version of another watch face from the iConnect store cause they can't be smoothly edited on the watch. Data Dash comes stock on Fenix, why not here?

Garmin continues to rule!!
I've been running for the past 50 years, and I've been using Garmin since they announced their first GPS watch. I always try to use the latest and greatest, and this is no exception. I could talk about the new metrics, but honestly, I'm most excited about the flashlight. It's great for running, and walking my dog, but it comes in handy at home too. Sure, Garmin is expensive, but it's worth it.

All And More
The Garmin’s Forerunner 970 is an excellent running watch. It gives the runner accurate running data that can easily be used to tailor your running program to achieve a higher level of performance. Paired with the Garmin HRM 600 you will get a deeper level of running data to work with.

Finally made the move from my Apple Watch!
Having only used my new Garmin for a week, I’m already hooked and have missed my Apple Watch goodbye! I love the data and the morning/evening reports and have found the Body Battery and Coach to be helpful. Might be overwhelming for a beginner, but an avid runner will find the features outstanding! Definitely take the time to explore the app and the watch features to get the most out of it

Great features and battery life!!
I bought this a few weeks ago and I am loving it. From the vibrant colors to being able to delete accidental laps, to flashlight and speaker. This thing has all the necessary features.

Great Upgrade
I upgraded my Garmin 965 expecting no changes, but I was surprised by the brighter screen, the lamp, and the new UI of Garmin. It's amazing not to be warned about potential damage to my screen.
