Excellent features for this price point
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. Read full review...

Excellent upgrade to the forerunner 235
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. Read full review...

Forerunner 245
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 etcRead full review...

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

A great value new watch
Arrived in three days. Unconventional packaging but basically a new watch. Very pleased with it. The language on the watch was Romanian which made me wonder about its origin, but it wasn't difficult to change this to English using the Garmin connect app. Very good value compared to full retail price.

Forerunner 245
The update to the 235 is great, minor changes inside allow it to work a bit better. Good tracking and a new go to for a newby runner.
Easy to use, no strap needed and custom watch faces.
Links with Garmin connect and Apple health. Tells you about calls, weather and notifications.
Sleep tracker isn’t so accurate currently, I know I’ve woken up and checked the time and it has not noted it the next day for example - so take it with a pinch of salt.
Overall a good investment for a smart watch and looks good.Read full review...

Garmin forerunner 245 - excellent all round sports tracker watch!
As a newly graduated couch to 5k runner this watch is everything I could ask for. So much better than the Fitbit versa it replaces. A heap of interesting and actually relevant stats in the app too. 10 out of 10Read full review...
