Garmin Forerunner 165 Leaked Before Features Launch

Ahead of its launch in Europe, the Forerunner 165 from Garmin has had some design details leaked.

According to the report, which was obtained by GizmoChina after being leaked by 91mobiles, the Forerunner 165 will come in black, white, and turquoise and have an updated design along with a larger display.

When compared to the Forerunner 55 that it will replace, the Forerunner 165 seems to have a more streamlined design with marginally thinner bezels.

Additionally, a redesigned and more easily accessible "Run" button will be included.

A 1.2-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 390x390 pixels is one of the Forerunner 165's key features. Along with Garmin's "Elevate V4" PPG sensor for precise heart rate monitoring and a barometric altimeter for precise elevation data, this model may have a shorter battery life than its predecessor, at 11 days.

To accommodate a range of wrist sizes, the smartwatch accepts 20 mm quick-release bands that fit between the sizes of the Forerunner 265 and 265S.

The base model costs €279, while the Music version, which comes with 4GB of built-in media storage, costs €329.
