Great review! I appreciate the info on the bands and especially the detailed size comparison with the 955. I have small 17cm wrists and the 955 just fits ok when I tried in in the shop, I'm afraid the 965 is pushing it diameter wise but the reduced thickness would still make for a more comfortable overall experience, since the 955 is a bit bulky so could be inconvenient with longs sleeves/sleeping. I still haven't made my final decision between the two. OLED I don't care about, but that titanum bezel, reduced thickness and better screen to body ratio certainly make for a better look I think, so leaning a bit more towards 965 still.

I tried purchasing the 955, but my local retailer was sold out. He had one 965 left, which I purchased. I thought I'd prefer the MIP screen and extended battery life, but I'm kinda sold on this AMOLED screen. It's much more crisp, which makes map use much more functional, as well as daily use more pleasurable.

Great review, loads of information. I am a bit confused how battery life compares to the Epix gen2. At first glance 965 seems to last longer, but only in smartwatch mode. During activity it has less juice. So what is the bottom line best performer? Also good to add that since its a forerunner, the 965 misses some functionality such as energy modes, virtual caddy and distance function for golf and some outdoor oriented stuff.

Great review! I recently lost my Garmin Fenix 3 HR. I love that watch to death. Did all I wanted it to do and did not scratch when I was out bouldering, working on my truck, hittings rocks, and etc. It was an amazing watch! Since I have a Samsung I tried the Galaxy active 4. It couldn't keep up and I was very disappointed. This week I saw the forerunner 955 on sale and the Fenix 7SS! I instantly took the forerunner 955 solar since it was open box and they gave me an additional $20 off and 10% off! I got it for $450! Then this just came out and I was like ummm okay well I can still return this watch but idk if it's worth it. I feel like I should go ahead and get this because well I need a new watch and didn't expect Garmin to just come out with a new watch just like that. That being said are they coming out with a new Fenix watch? If so Ill most likely spend money on that because I loved my Fenix 3 and the stuff I'll be doing is for sure gonna abuse my watch but so far this Forerunner got what I want and it's holding up just worried that it'll scratch once it hits the rocks.

Thank you so much for this great review. So much helpful information packed in 18 minutes. You got a new sub and a like :)

The watch looks amazing, my only complaint is I wish the screen was either flat (so we would have better screen protector options) or they offered a sapphire option. The curved glass is a big negative for me.

I just got mine today !

You mention a new video on the comparison of the 265 vs the 965, any chance of one comparing the 965 and the Epix 2? - reading comments here and elsewhere that seems to be the biggest choice people are trying to make - thank you.

A true flat screen would be nice. Only reason i would go amlod is for redshift feature. Great review. Also there should've been a flashlight on a runners watch, I mean night running is a thing in hot cities.

I wish Garmin would sell their sensor alone with no screens and a selection of rubber, leather, and titanium bands. This way those of us into horology can still wear our nice watches on one hand while tracking all the data by wearing a simple bracelet on the other hand. Rubber for workouts and leather or titanium for the rest of the day. It would make so much sense. Most people would buy multiple bands, battery will last ages, no screen to scratch or damage.... Heck I'd pay them to make me one. 😀

Thanks your content, man. I am deciding between the 955 solar, base Fenix 7 base solar (we can find incredible discounts in the last weeks), 965, or Suunto Race. For the last 5 years, I have been using a Suunto Spartan Trainer, with zero problems, but I am noticing that the display is dimming and the battery life is not the same, though still alright. I've never had luck with Garmin devices. My Suunto survived two Vivoactive 4 (both of them died before 6 months of use), and my wife's forerunner 35. Therefore, I am having a hard time deciding to stay with Suunto and go with the Race (though it is amoled, I prefer MIP, and the Vertical is beyond my budget) or give Garmin another chance. I once saw on reddit the following comment that sure brought me LOL: "MIPS if you're an athlete who trains outdoors a lot. OLED if you just want people at the office to think you are.¨.

Wow, even better than expected! Excellent review. My only questions are how would a screen protector work with the curved screen? Would the green watch band fade over time? I'm guessing there's other watches that have curved screens and colored bands where people know the answer.

So I actually tried a screen protector for a 955 - it didn't work but I think a smaller diameter could work but there could be a slight lip on the edge of the protector before the curve.

Damn that battery life is actually really good for that screen! Daaang

Awesome watch. However, a huge pro for me over the Apple Watch is the always on MIP (transreflective) display that doesn't consume much power. I'm not a big fan of AMOLED displays... especially for outdoor use when I'm exercising/training. I'll be going with the 955 Solar. My favorite watch is the Instinct Crossover Solar, but after going through two watches I was experiencing the minute hand coming loose and wiggling... a huge no... hence my preference for the 955 solar.

i do hope garmin continues to have a mid/high end MIP display version of the watch (say the fenix/tactix lines)...i get AMOLED looks nice, but like you i much prefer MIP for watches especially ones mostly meant for fitness etc. It looks nice but there's no point, IMO, for AMOLED on a watch screen.

I’m specifically interested in this watch and the features that will integrates my other Garmin devices into an algorithm to improve analysis. I have several Garmin devices. The Edge 130 on my MTN bike the Edge 530 on my Gravel with the Rally XC pedals. I link my Polar H10 to my Edge devices during my rides of course. I’m still stuck with my Polar Vantage V2 for all my off bike data and use several 3rd party apps for analysis. It would be nice to have everything in Garmin Connect.

Awesome review. I just ordered mine today. I have the Forerunner 945 and wanted to upgrade to the 965. Quick question...I used watch face protectors on my 945 which did not have a touch screen.

Hi Des! I’ve been binging your videos for a few days now and they are so incredible and informative. Thank you! I am looking to upgrade my watch.. I’ve had an Apple Watch for about five years now and am looking to switch to garmin. The Venu 2 plus is initially what caught my eye and made me want to switch, but then I saw the forerunner 965 and now I’m confused and don’t know which route to go. I love running but I am a beginner again after stopping for a few years so I am just getting back into it. I like the stress management tracker on the Venu (I have a stressful job) but I also like that the forerunner tailors workouts based on past workouts to really help improving the runs. Any suggestions/input on which route to go? I appreciate it!

wow nice watch, the 975 next year will really be awesome, or maybe the apple ultra 2

It's a nice watch and I'm considering it as I was about to get a 955 when I saw this was coming out. I think they have missed a trick not including the ECG thing available on the Venu 2+. Even if you may never use it it's strange that it's not on the flagship forunner watch but on a watch just over half the price. The extra detail of the Amoled is nice but it's brightness jumps out a bit too much for me and I'd be turning down the brightness lots which makes the think a 955 might suit me more (or I gain battery life). I've never had an issue with the older screen type myself even on my old 735xt which is still going strong just lacking many features.

Can we have Black Friday and Cyber Monday in March please? I'd need this 965 a little bit cheaper .... 😉

Nice to see Garmin bringing an amoled screen to the forerunner range. But for me I don’t understand why they haven’t used the menu look/setup from the FR955 & Fenix etc, instead it looks like they have used the Venu one. And my other gripe is the curved screen so a glass screen protector can’t be fitted especially when it’s a not a sapphire one? But the mapping in amoled looks incredible there’s no denying that! For the price it is and the discount you can get on an Epix I’d rather spend a little bit more and opt for one of them for in my opinion for a better all round watch.

what the hell, I just bough 955 last month

Unsure how useful this might be, but since I was having doubts about the size of the 965, turns out it sits pretty well on my 16cm wrist. It actually sits sleeker than the Fenix 5S Plus I had until now that has larger band 'arms' sticking out of watch body.

Only an upgraded GPS chip will make me want to upgrade my 955. That's all that matters to me! One secondary thing would be an upgraded Bluetooth chip for higher-res audio transmission. I believe the 955 used the basic SBC codec which for a £500 smartwatch is a bit naff.

It works that way if i switch between FR 955 and 965.

I am mainly a hiker, would this watch be good for that? Thought about getting epix. I love the display and ruggedness but this looks less bulky and battery life good! Thanks love the video, thumbs up from me!

It would be perfectly suitable for hiking but if you are interested in more durability a Fenix or Epix may be a better option with similar feature sets. Thanks!

New subscriber here - great review of the 965! Quick question - is it possible to change the colour of the yellow “line” on the screen under the start/stop button? If i changed the strap out for another colour it would be nice to match it… 😃

The yellow line is part of the hardware but it's only on the version with the yellow band. The black and white versions of the 965 use white for that accent color. Hope that helps.

Ah thanks that’s a shame. I see the physical stop/start button has the yellow on it too with the Amp yellow 965 but was hoping the yellow accent/line was on the screen display itself so could be changed colour in the settings but I see it’s on edge ☹️

The perfect old man's watch.. wooooooohooooooooo.. big screens rock
