Garmin Forerunner 245 Music GPS Watch In-Depth Review

When Garmin first introduced the Vivoactive 3 almost two years ago, I wondered how exactly they'd create a successor to the Forerunner 235. Sure, the FR235 had more buttons than the Vivoactive 3, but ultimately the Vivoactive 3 was a more rounded watch in terms of features.

The Garmin Forerunner 245 Music is a runner’s best friend, and sets a new bar by which most other running watches will be measured. The watch is small, slim and light. The display is very clear and easy to read.
