Despite its high price, the Garmin Forerunner 265 is one of the best running watches you can currently buy. You get excellent tracking and coaching functions for your training, which you can use to monitor and control your activities.

The Forerunner 265 scores points with its lightweight case, although it does attract scratches. The watch responds quickly and measures accurately. Contactless payment is possible with Garmin Pay. Apart from that, there are few apps. The data protection was convincing when tested. The watch is particularly suitable for runners.

Smartwatches and fitness wristbands are now real all-rounders: they serve as heart rate monitors and altimeters, count steps, calculate distance travelled and calories burned and analyse sleep patterns. Some can also be used to play music, make phone calls or send and receive messages. If you want, you can even find models that generate ECGs, measure blood pressure or enable contactless payment.
