Affordable fitness watch with everything
I'm so happy overall with this watch. I bought it to replace a Fenix 7. I like the fitness and sleeping insights. I also liked the affordable price. I started running again and l love the coaches plan. I use the watch a lot and the only drawback is battery life as I'm only getting 5-6 days between charges.
Best Forerunner yet!
I am obsessed with this Forerunner. It's my 3rd vetsion over that past 14 years! The new 170 Music is so customizable with settings, colors, skins, etc. I love that I can go for a run using a garmin coach program or suggested training based on my recovery status. The music storage feature is what really sets this one apart from others because smart phones have only gotten bigger, so it's great I can store music or podcasts and not have to run with a phone.
I didn’t know what I was missing
I’ve had Apple Watches for about a decade now - I never wanted to swap to anything that wasn’t Apple. But I bought this one with the music download about a month ago because I was tired of finding ways to try to carry my phone when I run. This watch is so much more precise than Apple Watch. I really like the sleep tracking and body battery function as well. That’s also something Apple claimed to track but it wasn’t accurate/detailed like Garmin. It’s pricey, yes, but I would buy it again!
Great Watch- Great battery life and Easy to use
I just started exercising more and was looking for a watch that has a long battery life compared to the former one I had at. 18 hours. So did some research and bought the Forerunner 170 Music 3 weeks ago. It is practical and easy to navigate. I really enjoy all the features ; especially the sleep coach. The garmin connect app is super user friendly. I highly recommend for those looking for a simple watch that has a very long battery life and is user friendly. you won't regret it.
Love the watch didn’t need the music add
I LOVE this watch. Does everything I need stat wise to help me get stronger as a runner. I’m still a beginner to mid runner so I was looking for additional help on pace targets and metrics. I deducted 1 star because I don’t think I truly needed the music component so I could have saved money had I know this doesn’t integrate at all with apple. I don’t want to buy a Spotify membership. I also typically carry my phone with me anyways so I can stream music from my phone.
I purchased this watch almost right after it came out. I’ve been very happy with the running metrics and customization it has. Great entry-level running watch!
