For the typical price point of this model, it packs a lot of features. It's customisable in terms of the watch face and the sports 'apps' that the watch supports (you can pick from designs in the Connect IQ store). I use mine mainly for running and it was an upgrade from the Forerunner 35. You get a lot more stats on the 245, the GPS is faster and more accurate and it will suggest workouts based on your fitness level. I quite like the Body Battery feature and Training Status features as well. Integration with the phone is also head and shoulders above the 35. The notifications are much better, with options to quick reply to messages, whatsapps, etc.

The 235 was dependable and everything you needed in a gps running watch, the 245 takes this and adds enhanced features, better UI, longer battery life (at least a week) and returns a watch that’s an everyday wearable and a marked upgrade from its predecessor.

Was looking for a Garmin to replace my old head units that were struggling to hold battery. Have been using this watch now for a few weeks and have been very impressed with the battery life, as well as the GPS accuracy. It also fulfills its secondary function as a smart watch effectively. It's nice to have the general health metrics available to you, HR, sleep tracking, energy levels etc

Great product especially refurbished. Lots of solid features and a few extras I'd expect of higher end watches good.
