Kilometers wrong
Started off great then my distance started calculating wrong, always short of a kilometer or 2. Checked to see if an update is required but it's not. Have no idea how to correct this. Also the charging type c cable is also super annoying because it has to be charged in your phone unless get an adapter which is not part of the box and is very expensive.

Obsessed
I am absolutely obsessed with my watch. The way it looks, feels, how it works, the battery life! Everything so far has been great! I have been wearing it for almost a month and I don’t have any complaints.

Nice Watch
Really like the FR 265s. Bought it to pair with my Garmin cycling computer and it works great. Broadcasts HR to the computer easily. Easy to set up, did have a small issue after a software update, Garmin support was wonderful and helped me solve the problem. Would recommend.

Love this Garmin!!
this Garmin is the best thing that I’ve purchased in a long time. I love all of the features. It took a little bit to learn how to use it and I still have more to learn, but I love it!

The Perfect Watch Does Exist!
I moved away from the Apple Watch, and I am so glad I did. I spent weeks researching several Garmins before finally deciding on the Forerunner 265S. Suits my needs perfectly and gives me room to grow.

Enttäuscht
Ich habe vor kurzem die forerunner 265s gekauft und nach nicht mal 4 Wochen normaler, alltäglicher Nutzung hat das Display mehrere Kratzer. Das enttäuscht mich sehr. Mein Vorgängermodell Forunner 245 hatte nach 4 jähriger Dauernutzung nicht einen Kratzer im Display. Auch wurde in keinster Weise bei den Informationen zur Forrunner 265 vermerkt, dass es ratsam wäre, einen Displayschutz zu nutzen. Schade.

Nice upgrade from FR245
I tried both the Venu and the FR 265s and found that for working out, this one is superior. I find the display bright enough for sunny days and the ability to switch between buttons and the touchscreen to work really well. I was hoping for a better use of the Garmin Coach but since I am not a runner, it is pretty useless. Otherwise, excellent features, great battery life and quick bluetooth and wifi connections. Very happy with this purchase!

Exactly what I needed
I switched to the Garmin 265S from a Whoop. I prefer the Garmin so much more. It still gives me all the info I need about my sleep, recovery and training readiness. But it also allows me to track my runs better and I love all the data I get about it. I'm currently using the included coaching function to train for a 10k and really enjoy it.
