You don't just have to use smartphones Apple Watch or Galaxy Watch. Garmin is a proven and popular brand in the wearables market, which stands out for its measurement metrics and many other functions. Now the first ones have leaked informace about what the new Forerunner 265 and 965 models should bring.
A few of the recent ones leaks have indicated that Garmin will launch the new Forerunner 265 and 965 watches within the next two months. They will reportedly add a Venu-style AMOLED display and potentially add some new features that the Forerunner 955 and 255 missed out on last year. Garmin has always sold a somewhat obscene amount of watches, best exemplified by its Forerunner series with its inexplicable numbering scheme. But with a few exceptions, Garmin tends to let their watches exist on the market for a few years to establish themselves before launching a newer generation.
Garmin Forerunner 255
This year, Garmin seems to be focused on catching up with its competition. It should add EKG support and, judging by the update to the Garmin Connect app, skin temperature measurement. If Apple updates his Apple Watch once a year, which is exactly what Samsung does with its Galaxy Watch, Garmin might want to build on this, at least with its popular models. Two representatives of the Forerunner series could be the first to receive the annual update cycle.

If the leaks are true, the Garmin Forerunner 265 and 965 will combine the best of what the Forerunner and Venu series have to offer. Logically, it will upset everyone who bought last year's models, which are not even a year old. The novelties should last up to 15 days in smartwatch mode and up to 24 hours in GPS mode, which are great results in the presence of AMOLED displays. The watch should add Training Readiness and improve Body Battery. One brand new feature will be the Wrist-Based Running Dynamics that gives you informace about step length, its cadence and other data, which you usually need an additional Garmin device (Running Dynamics Pod) to display.

What is this nonsense? Since when are the mentioned brands a competitor for Garmin? Garmin focuses on the field of sports testers whose products are not intended to be an extension of the mobile phone and has a completely different target group of people.
Garmin is direct competition for Apple Watch i Galaxy Watch. The company's products fall into the category of smart wearables, and all sales charts count with them. Many people decide whether to buy Garmins or a manufacturer's solution. Garmin itself states the endurance in smartwatch mode for its watches, which simply means that the Forerunner series also fits the role of smartwatches, which are also AW and GW. You may not like it, but that's just the way it is.
