Great review! Thank you!

[@legendsofmyself]

I just ordered the 165.... I watched your videos on both and it's great to see the comparison video now. You're doing a great job... Also, what book is that on the table!?

[@PlayBetterGO]

Thank you! The 165 is a great running watch and we haven’t noticed any problems with it not having the multi band GPS. The book is a runners high by Dean Karnazes. Sometimes he writes articles for us and he signed a bunch of books!

R u using it for running ?

[@Jay-sd9ye]

Training readiness is useless for me. I run 10 miles every day. According to the Reddyness I'm always in the red.
Status is kinda helpful. Kinda.
Both are not a necessary tool but cool to have.

[@brucelin5842]

The 165 doesn’t have gyroscope?

Compare 165 to Vivoactive 5 which one is better?

[@PlayBetterGO]

We are working on a video! It really depends on your needs. If you want a watch for running and need the running training features like training effect get the 165. If you want more of a lifestyle watch that can also track fitness and looks more stylish get the vivoactive 5

[@brucelin5842]

@@PlayBetterGO I see coz the 165 does look a bit cheap, but vivoactive also looks quite cheap ….my previous Garmin was venu sq….and u do my most workout in the gym…

[@PlayBetterGO]

@@brucelin5842 you can also golf on the vivoactive 5 and you cant on the 165. The button on the 165 has the word run on it so that turns people off when they want to wear it everyday

[@PlayBetterGO]

but if you were really using it for a running watch, we would go 165, if not vivoactive

[@PlayBetterGO]

vivoactive 5 has better glass too

[@aobk84x]

Ok I’m getting watch 9

[@brucelin5842]

Watch 9?

[@drsnowmon]

@@brucelin5842 he probably means the Apple Watch 9. That thing will die in 1.5 days, battery sucks on Apple Watches
