Review: Great running watch - I bought the 945 as a replacement for a 735. For me the main reason for buying were the maps. I was stuck in running the same routes, and was really interested in having improved navigation on my longer runs. Over the last few months of owning the watch I have used the maps from time to time. It works very well as a way of exploring a new area. Also one time when I got lost at night, it was really assuring being able to follow a map back. In the end the feature I like best are the suggested runs and training status. Before I always ended up doing similar runs, 10k every other day. And it was a struggle to keep that up. Now however, the suggested workouts have introduced a variety to my runs that really help keep things interesting for me. Usually it is a base run, which seemed very slow to me initially. The sprints really push me as do the tempo runs. Also for the first time I feel comfortable running 5 days a week. So far the only bad side was that initially the battery was draining really quickly. After some investigation online I decided to switch off the pulse ox feature and it has greatly improved since.
Review: Fantastic upgrade - Bought as replacement for my venerable FR235, the 945 doesn't just add long battery life, but expands the features beyond what I expected in reading up about it. The Garmin Connect app expands in detail display too, adding much more training focus support - guidance about too little/too much, e.g. recently advising me to increase gentle Aerobic load as I may be over-training. Improved insight into my sleep quality too (I have always been a light sleeper sadly). Overall, very pleased with it. Only thing I immediately changed was the strap, swapping to a nylon after-market option for both comfort (more adjustable) and colour/individuality.
