Why We Like The Garmin Forerunner 165 Music Watch
For a complete view of our training status as we prepare for race day, we track our every move with the Garmin Forerunner 165 Music Watch. The GNSS tracking system accurately captures every mile we run, swim, hike, or bike, and audio prompts keep us on pace, while our downloaded playlists let us pump our curated tunes through our wireless earbuds and leave our phone at home for undisrupted miles. Plus, with sleep scores, energy tracking, heart-rate monitoring, recovery time suggestions, training tips, and more, this watch is like our own personal, wearable coach that gets us over the finish line in record time.

Perfect entry level watch!
First sports watch for me. I was looking for something that could track my running and give me basic metrics along with listening to music without my phone. This watch does all that perfectly. Battery is pretty good as well, I charge it every 4/5 days depending on usage. It really is a great watch. The AMOLED and touch screen are nice as well.

I love it!
I am absolutely obsessed with my Garmin Forerunner 165 Music! The purple color is so cute, and it's a breeze to use. Downloading my running playlists is super easy, and it connects perfectly with everything. It's just a fantastic, customizable watch that I can't recommend enough.

Difficult to operate
The watch is fine once you customize your activities, but I can't get Amazon music to play on it. This is even after I downloaded and updated the Amazon music app on my watch and my phone, went to the app and selected "refresh all devices."

Glad I upgraded!
I've used a Garmin Vivomove 3S for many, many years, and was quite happy with it. But I got back into running last fall and have reached the point where I want some more data and heartrate guidance. I love the large display and metrics available. The physical buttons are so much nicer to manipulate while running (though some of the controls aren't super intuitive- takes some practice). And I really enjoy leaving my phone at home and being able to listen to music.

Keeps me motivated
Music helps clear my mind so I can train on my short runs as well as the long ones. Delivers great quality.
