Nice watch, good quality with lots of features and options, but crazy controls. Who is used to e.g. on Apple products (watch), he must feel like "Alice in Wonderland" and may have a big problem with it. The way the menu and controls are done, it takes a long time to get used to, it's not intuitive at all and if you want to find something quickly, it's infuriating. they've almost gone in the trash a couple of times, and my wife uses them. If I had them, they're no more - the control is really a big minus.

Lots of features and options
Crazy controls, who hasn't experienced it won't believe it
I am writing this review after a week of use. I thought about Garmin for a long time, because my Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 after 2 years of use measured complete rubbish when running. I was a bit worried about the Garmin "internal" interface though, as I found it quite dated and the gestures slow from other models. So I was always hesitating which model would be the most suitable for me and whether to switch from the modern Samsung Watch to the sporty Garmin. I was hesitating between the nice-looking VENU 3 and some Fererunner model because I wasn't sure about the sporty look. At the same time, I run quite a lot and I wanted the most suitable watch for running. In the end, though, I opted for the Forerunner 165 Sport because it's a Garmin novelty at a nice price and in a nice design. I was betting a lot on the fact that this is a new model - I was hoping that the environment would not be so outdated. And fortunately, it worked. I was very pleasantly surprised by the watch. The "internal" environment is not outdated at all, on the contrary, the display is beautiful, legible and the gestures are smooth. I was worried about the button controls, but fortunately this model offers combined button and touch controls - surprisingly I actively use both. It is, in short, a model where I found everything I needed and there is absolutely nothing that the Samsung Watch 4 can do that I missed here. Conversely, Garmin offers me the standard Samsung Watch + excellent sports features. I absolutely loved the need for recovery or the recommended run for today. After a week of use, I have 14% battery today. But it's true that as a new user, I've been looking for/setting something in my watch every day - all day + my watch has measured my activity 5 times this week, each time for about 1 hour. When I compare it to the (2-year-old) Samsung Galaxy Watch 4, the Garmin Forerunner 165 is much faster in notifications (the Samsung Watch 4 didn't even show me all the notifications), smoother in gestures, the find mobile feature responds instantly, and I don't even need to talk about the battery: Samsung Watch 4 I had to charge after 12 hours, here I have 14% after a week of heavy use. It really makes life easier when you don't have to wait for the watch to charge before each run. Of course, I was also thinking about the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6, but the battery life here is simply terrible and after the experience with the Samsung Wacth I will probably not return to Samsung watches. The Garmin Conect app is fine with me. The activities are immediately overwritten on Strava. The only downside is that your activities aren't logged into Samsung Health, but that's such a cluttered app anyway that Garmin Conect replaces it with ease. As much as I was dreading the switch to Garmin, I am extremely happy with the Foreruner 165. I recommend all ten.
