    4:58 I actually prefer Garmin in this regard - that it doesn’t react to tiny wrist movements. I make small movements all the time, for example when typing on the keyboard, and I don’t want my watch to light up then. So for me Garmin pretty much works perfectly here.

    Awesome video as always!! To see all those bike trainers in that studio, man I would love to test those out ☺. Another thing if you are switching from a Fenix/Epix to the 965 and you have been using the quarter turn adapter for your bike, you will need to switch to the forerunner bike mount with straps attached as the watch won't click in. DesFit went over this in a video last year about this issue.

In the last few months I've gotten myself a coach, been working towards a marathon and dramatically changed my training, seen my predicted times drop and NO CHANGE to the Vo2 max score. I was finding it disheartening, but now I'm wondering if it's not me, but the watch somehow not updating. Super interesting.

    Great video, regarding V02max, I upgraded front the 935 to the 955 last summer and while my running V02max has not changed as mentioned, my cycling V02max has changed. I do capture power data on the bike. Interesting that I upgraded recently to the HRM PRO, which does allow the watch to capture a power reading while running, and the running V02max is unchanged. I made sure to remove the 935 from the list of devices, thinking that’s what was confusing things, but no luck. I can absolutely say my 935 had variations in running V02max, depending on what type of workouts I was doing.

I am totally between amoled display on the FR965 but I love the look and build quality of Fenix 7X Sapphire Solar version and it is really hard to choose between those two.

      @@alexhaschen I can appreciate that it's probably not the best ECG and it's unlikely to be used very much. I just don't understand why a company would bring a feature into the market and then not put it on flagship models within its various ranges. Unless of course they aren't happy with it and are not intending to continue with it.

    This is undoubtedly the best review of the 965. It is one hour long and it is worth it. What could be improved? One single item only: since you are taking over an hour, you may as well take 1h15-20 and try to go through everything in a slightly slower pace.You speak way too fast and that does not always help the viewer to keep up. Rather than that, amazing work! Thanks!

    Can i have elevation gain in my screen natively while running? I ask because I’m thinking upgrade from 245 to 965 hoping this one have that feature, that’s not in 245. And some others more, but that it’s an important one.

Are there any scenarios where the chest strap gives superior accuracy, better results or any functions that are not possible with the watches sensors only? Thanks for your answer!

      a heart rate strap is always more reliable for measuring during training, unless it is very low quality. I'm using the Garmin HRM-PRO in combination with my Vivoactive 4S during training sessions to get more accurate heart rate measurements.

      945 is also 47mm right? Only the LTE version is smaller. But I totally agree, I think this is a bit too big as well, I have a 745 now, something around 45mm would be perfect. But I might still go for it or the 955 which is a tiny bit smaller but thicker.

      I have a 935 and was thinking of upgrading, but I too was concerned about the size. Went to my local running store and tried one on. It actually looked smaller than the 935. This seems to be due to the fact that the point at which the strap attaches has been moved. On the 935, the strap attaches to lugs that project from the watch. On the 965, they attach under the watch itself. Try one on and see what you think.
      Also, I found that the whitestone color looks smaller than the others because the preponderance of black on the other two color variations make them look bigger to my eye.

    Have Garmin improved sleep tracking on this latest forerunner? My fenix 7 never records sleep cycles accurately and rarely shows deep sleep, and as sleep quality is heavily linked to Training readiness, Body battery and Recovery time, it makes these metrics worthless.
    In contrast my Whoop 4.0 does a much better job and usually shows around 80-90 min of deep sleep, which is where it should be in terms of %
