New Post: Garmin Forerunner 165 vs Forerunner 265 Comparison Review: 107 Differences Explained -While only one digit separates the two models, the reality is that there’s a pile of differences. Many big-ticket differences (like Training Readiness), but also lots of little and more nuanced differences. The last time I did this type of post, I identified 65 differences between the Forerunner 965 and Epix. This time, I’m going... https://lnkd.in/eT27nxdE While only one digit separates the two models, the reality is that there’s a pile of differences. Many big-ticket differences (like Training Readiness), but also lots of little and more nuanced differences. The last time I did this type of post, I identified 65 differences between the Forerunner 965 and Epix. This time, I’m going to try and maintain my sanity and focus on the big ticket ones, and then keep a simple running list of the remainder. That seems more viable. Update: I failed. In total, I’ve got roughly around 107 differences detailed. But in reality, for the upper section of this post I’m consolidating things into big groups to keep them simple (versus the reality the Training Status is multiple underlying features). Yet, in the sport profile section alone we’ve got 37 differences. Sorry-not-sorry. With that, let’s just get straight into it, starting off with one I wouldn’t count, the price. There are effectively two models of each watch, albeit, in different ways: Garmin Forerunner 165 (base): $249USDGarmin Forerunner 165 (music edition): $299USD Garmin Forerunner 265S: $449USDGarmin Forerunner 265: $449USD In the case of the Forerunner 165, the inclusion of offline music capability (which also includes WiFi connectivity) costs an extra $50. Whereas for the Forerunner 265, it’s included on all models. Instead, that model has two different sizes. So, let’s start with the sizes. 1) Display & Size Differences There are effectively three different-sized watches here, including three different display sizes. Forerunner 165: 1.2” (390×390 pixels)Forerunner 265S: 1.1” (360×360 pixels)Forerunner 265: 1.3” (416×416 pixels) What’s interesting though, as I’ll cover in the battery section, is that the smaller Forerunner 265S actually gets longer battery life than the larger Forerunner 265, because they use the same battery in both models, but the smaller display means it draws less battery life. When it comes to the physical size of the units, they are effectively considered the following case sizes by Garmin: Forerunner 165: 43mmForerunner 265S: 42mmForerunner 265: 46mm That said, while the 165 is only 1mm bigger than the FR265S, for some reason the FR265S feels notably smaller on the wrist than the FR165. Said differently, as a tall dude, the FR265S felt pretty tiny on my wrist, whereas the FR165 feels more normal. From a glass/display standpoint, the FR265 has a slightly curved glass surface (technically t

The built-in GPS smartwatches can accurately track workout details like distance, speed, pace and routes as well as liberate users from taking their smartphones while engaging in activities like running, walking, or cycling. These watches come with built-in GPS capabilities that accurately track outdoor running and cycling metrics using data from both accelerometer sensor and real-time GPS satellite positioning. Creek Wearable introduces the CW Watch S1, a mid-tier smartwatch of exceptional value in their 2023 Q2 lineup. Boasting a high-precision built-in GPS, the watch's gracefully curved aluminum frame serves as a dual-frequency band antenna, connecting seamlessly with GPS L1 1.575GHz and Bluetooth 2.4GHz. Switching to outdoor workout mode, GPS satellite connection takes less than 10 seconds, ensuring a smooth user experience, while conductive and radiative enhancements optimize performance.
