Forerunner 165
Garmin · £249
Worth being NRY provisional
£249, and the one to buy if you have entered a race. Garmin aim it at everyone from sprinters to first-timers, and the training guidance is the part worth paying for over the Forerunner 70: it tells you what to run tomorrow rather than only what you ran today. AMOLED screen at a price where that used to be unavailable.
- For
- Someone training for a specific distance who wants a plan rather than a log.
- Not for
- Anyone who just wants to record runs, where £50 less does it.
What we checked
- Garmin aim it at sprinters, long-distance runners and beginners alike. John Lewis
Marked provisional: the justification rests on 1 source(s); two independent ones is the bar. We publish it anyway and say so, rather than waiting for evidence that may never arrive.
