Yes, the Forerunner 965 features both a touchscreen and traditional physical buttons. You can use the buttons to navigate menus or start and stop activities if you prefer tactile control, especially when your hands are wet or you are wearing gloves.

Multi-band GPS allows the watch to access multiple frequencies from navigation satellites simultaneously. This significantly improves positioning accuracy in challenging environments, such as deep forests or areas with tall buildings where signals might otherwise bounce or get blocked.

No, you can store music directly on the device. You can download playlists from supported streaming services or transfer your own files to the watch, allowing you to listen to music via Bluetooth headphones without needing your phone nearby.

The Morning Report provides a summary of your sleep quality, recovery status, and heart rate variability as soon as you wake up. It also offers a daily suggested workout based on your current fitness level and training load, helping you decide whether to push hard or prioritize rest.

Yes, the Forerunner 965 has a water resistance rating of 5 ATM, meaning it can withstand pressures equivalent to a depth of 50 meters. It is fully capable of tracking your laps and metrics during pool or open-water swimming sessions.

In smartwatch mode, the battery lasts up to 23 days. However, if you are using the GPS frequently for long runs or rides, you will need to charge it more often, though it remains one of the longest-lasting AMOLED watches on the market.
