This beginner-friendly Garmin watch is now at its lowest ever price

Looking to save on your first-ever Garmin watch? Then you can't miss this deal — the Garmin Forerunner 265 is now 22% off at Amazon,  bringing its RRP down by a round $100. Best Buy and Walmart are also offering the same discount, but only on the less popular white and blue models. This means that this excellent fitness tracker is now at its lowest-ever price since its release in March last year.

The Garmin Forerunner 265 strikes a good balance between affordability and functionality, making it a perfect entry-level Garmin watch. It does not have pre-loaded maps, an ultra-durable build or other frills typical of more premium models, but just like the best Garmin watches, the Garmin Forerunner 265 has plenty of high-end features, long battery life and a crisp, easy-to-read AMOLED display. It is also light, comfortable to wear and available in several colors. We liked it so much that we gave it 4.5/5 stars in our Garmin Forerunner 265 review, and included it in our guide to the best Garmin watches.
