Garmin has lifted the curtains of two new additions to its already impressive Forerunner lineup. You are getting the Forerunner 265 and Forerunner 965.
The Garmin Forerunner 265 and Forerunner 965 are excellent smartwatches if you want something different from the rest
With the Forerunner 265 and Forerunner 965, Garmin didn't go for reinventing the wheel. Instead, you are getting what you would expect from the company. Both smartwatches come with AMOLED displays; you are looking at excellent colors and bright, vivid screens that can be used any time you want. Aside from the screens, you are also getting the tried and tested features that Garmin is known for.
For starters, the Forerunner 265 and Forerunner 965 are getting Body Battery and all the metrics that would help you train. There is also a separate widget for racing and a Morning Report that should help you stay up to date.
Starting with the Forerunner 265, you are getting an excellent all-rounder at an affordable price. You are going to get all the advanced features such as PacePro, sleep tracking, Body Battery, and more. You also have music support, various payment supports, a safety feature called LiveTrack, and a slew of other features that will improve the experience.

Garmin is offering the Forerunner 265 in two sizes; you have the bigger 46mm for larger wrists, and there is a 42mm option available too. Battery life is stellar, with Garmin stating that the 42mm option will last you 15 days as a smartwatch and 24 hours when using it in GPS mode. The larger 46mm model will offer 13 days as a smartwatch and 20 hours with GPS mode turned on. If you are interested, the Forerunner can be yours for $449.99, regardless of the size you choose.
If you still want something higher-end, then the Garmin Forerunner 965 is what you should be going for. You are getting a 1.4-inch AMOLED screen, a massive 47mm case, and a lightweight and sturdy titanium bezel surrounding the case. However, a more significant case is not just the only thing. You can use built-in mapping, new features such as Garmins' load ratio, and more.

If you are looking for a smartwatch that lasts you a long time, the good news is that the Garmin Forerunner 965 lasts over 31 hours in GPS mode and 23 days when you are using it in smartwatch mode. This is a stellar option for those who don't prefer charging their smartwatches repeatedly. Unlike the Forerunner 265, this one only comes in a 47mm case size, which might feel larger, but the titanium bezel should cut down the overall weight. The Forerunner 965 will release next month and is going to cost you a hefty $599.99 from garmin.com and authorized retailers.
