Garmin Forerunner 265S 42mm AMOLED Sports Watch, Black/Yellow

The Garmin Forerunner 265S is a GPS sports watch designed for runners and triathletes who require detailed training data. It features a 1.1" AMOLED touchscreen with a 360 x 360 pixel resolution, housed within a 42 mm glass fiber reinforced polymer case and protected by Gorilla Glass 3. This lightweight 39-gram construction is intended for extended wear during training and daily activities. Accurate positioning is delivered by multi-band GNSS with SatIQ technology, which automatically selects the optimal satellite mode to balance location precision and battery efficiency.

The device provides a suite of advanced training and health monitoring tools. Key metrics include wrist-based running power, training readiness scores derived from sleep quality and HRV status, and daily workout suggestions. An optical heart rate sensor enables continuous heart rate tracking, SpO2 (blood oxygen) monitoring, and detailed sleep analysis. With over 30 preloaded activity profiles and a dedicated multisport mode, the watch supports a wide range of athletic disciplines from running to swimming and cycling.

For everyday use, the Forerunner 265S integrates smart notifications for calls and texts when paired with a compatible smartphone. It supports contactless payments through Garmin Pay and has 8 GB of internal storage for phone-free music listening.
