On paper, the Garmin Forerunner 265 and 265S don't feel like much of an update. However, the eye-popping AMOLED touchscreen certainly brings it more into traditional smartwatch territory, rather than a functional sports watch, and the new 'run' button is cute. Time will tell whether the screen's impact on battery life is worth the trade-off.
First small Forerunner with a touchscreen; Bright, crisp AMOLED visuals; Small and pretty; Run button easier to use with gloves
More expensive than 255 & 255S; Screen boost means (slightly) worse battery life
