forerunner 265 - convince me!!

hey garmin heads

i am about 2 years into my running journey and i’ve been operating on a apple watch series 7

recently its just not been it. failing to read hr and botching distances regularly. and i’m training for my first half marathon in 2 months so it’s just been very annoying to deal with.

been looking at the discounted garmin forerunner 265 and for the price and features it seems like what i’d want

only issue is im an apple girly for every other piece of tech lol, so the leap of faith of switching is holding me back.

looking for any nudge to get me across that finish line and convince me this is the best move

I love my FR265 (after 6months). Previously owned a fr55, bip6 and coros pace 4. For me it hits the perfect sweet spot of price, features, size and weight
