Overall pretty happy with the Forerunner 970. Easy to use. Enjoy the customizable watch face. One major disappointment is that you cannot manually add to the step count. It will not count steps if you are pushing a baby jogger, lawn mower, weight sled, grocery cart, holding onto a treadmill railing, etc. I guess in Garmin's view those steps don't matter. This watch isn't cheap. If step count is important, why can't I add steps manually in Garmin Connect to accurately track my steps?

Near-Perfect Watch
I absolutly love the 970. I wasn't sold on amoled going in, but it is fantastic. Battery life is easily 8+ days with a GPS activity every day (AOD off, brightness lowest). Literally the only thing I would change is making the brightness scale 5 instead of 3 options.

Still in the acquainted zone
Bought this awhile ago at the recommendation of a friend. Waited until my Garmin 935 finally pooped out to activate something more current.

Love the features!
I love all the options and features from my 970. One feature I use often is to "find my phone". This even works if my cellphone volume has been turned off or the ringer is turned off. I have used the light a few times at night. So helpful. I totally love the LONG battery charge it has. I'm so happy with this purchase.

Despite the cost, this watch is worth it, and I'm happy I bought it!
I've been wearing the Forerunner since the days of the 945, and I'm really impressed with the progress Garmin has made in its flagship running watch. I haven't purchased a new watch since the 945, and the 970 is totally worth it. The functionality, screen, and other features are handy for any user interested in taking a deeper dive into their performance!

Great product
I bought this watch three weeks ago and so far I love it. I was torn between the forerunner 970 or the Fenix 8. I'm not disappointed I love how light it is on my wrist hardly tell its there. The only thing I would change is offer the bigger display like Fenix other than that I wouldn't change a thing
