Water-resistant devices can resist the penetration of water, such as powerful water jets, but not being submerged into water. Garmin Forerunner 245 er efterfølgeren det utrolig populære Forerunner 235, der måske har været det mest solgte løbeur siden det udkom i 2015. The device is dustproof and water-resistant. This works really well on the Forerunner 245, and we never found a time where we couldn’t see what was being displayed on screen - all the timings, heart rate information and elevations illuminated brilliantly, especially in direct sunlight. Forerunner 245 fra Garmin er et super let og elegant løbeur til den dedikerede løber.

Instead, it uses transflective memory-in-pixel (MIP) tech which relies on external sources of light to illuminate the screen and what’s being presented on it. If you’re familiar with Garmin devices, you’ll know the firm doesn’t achieve display brightness through a backlit AMOLED screen as seen on many other smartwatches. The 1.2-inch screen is a good size too - being big enough to feed you the data you need without overloading you with information. As always with Garmin, this button setup does take some getting used to if you’re a newcomer to the firm’s devices, but after no time at all, it will all make sense.Īs for the display, Garmin has upgraded the Forerunner 245’s screen from a 215 x 180 resolution on the Forerunner 235 to a 240 x 240 resolution, adding a welcome touch of sharpness and better detail that wasn’t present in the 235. It not only works better for many physical activities - especially in water - but it also saves on crucial battery life. There’s no touchscreen here, but this is intentional.

On the sides, there's the same Garmin physical button setup you’ll find on most of its fitness-focused devices. Still, it’s a good size, especially for viewing performance data mid-workout or run. The body has dropped down from a 45mm case to 42.3mm, something you’re only likely to recognize if you’re a Forerunner 235 user. While the Garmin Forerunner 245 is slightly thicker than its predecessor on paper, you’re probably not going to notice - perhaps because it is smaller and lighter overall. In fact, we did two yoga practices with the Forerunner 245 and even wore it while sleeping four nights in a row and it felt extremely comfortable throughout, so a massive thumbs up there. If you can happily arm balance and back bend your way through an hour of vinyasa without feeling the urge to take it off, you know you’re on to a winner. The true test of comfort, we think, is wearing a smartwatch during a yoga class. It’s this lightweight design, alongside its comfortable silicone strap, that makes the Forerunner 245 an absolute dream to wear during all kinds of sports and activities.
