GARMIN Forerunner 165 Garmin watch pulse ox sensor stress tracking wrist-based running dynamics wrist-based heart rate cross training

With extended use, the watch proves reliable. The battery lasts well according to most reviews, though not exceptionally long. The Garmin Connect app connects without issues, and the watch is easy to use, though some users mention that the first few days require time to familiarize themselves with the features. One buyer warns, however, that GPS sometimes struggles to acquire satellites, leading to inaccurate distance measurements — this is an isolated case. Some users with larger wrists complain about the tight band.

Critical reviews account for only 3.3 percent. Complaints include difficulty acquiring satellites (isolated case), tight band for larger wrists, and the fact that this is a Taiwanese model without music support. One buyer received a used watch in the first order, but the seller sent a replacement. Prices on the platform fluctuate significantly — buyers recommend waiting for discounts or monitoring offers.
