Garmin is probably the best-known player in this field, and picking from their products can be challenging given the variety of price points and feature sets. The 200 series is generally considered the best combination of quality, features, and value in Garmin’s lineup, and its latest incarnation certainly picks up the baton and — if you’ll pardon the pun — runs with it. arriving in two sizes and including features previously only available in Garmin’s higher-end watches.
The most visible upgrade is the AMOLED screen, which is bright, colorful, and touch control-capable -– a 200 series first. All versions of the 265 include onboard music functionality, allowing for the storage of up to 500 songs as well as playlists from Spotify, Deezer, and Amazon Music. Its GPS is quick to connect and utilizes the increasingly standard multi-band positioning protocol for accurate location tracking. Fitness and biometrics tracking has also improved with the Training Readiness feature, which is designed to monitor certain indicators pre-workout.
Thanks to the AMOLED display, battery life is slightly less than the 265’s predecessors, but we’re still talking about up to 20 hours in GPS mode, which is more than enough for most regimens. The only real downside is the price –- at $450, the Garmin Forerunner 265 is cheaper than Garmin’s higher-end watches but still a significant investment. That said, you get what you pay for, and Garmin delivers a high-quality product in the 265 for those who are slightly more serious than casual about their road time.
