Forerunner 170 Music vs 265s

Hi guys, I just saw this sub and wanted to ask here too.

To keep it short, I am currently looking for a watch. I do running, go to the gym and do Hyrox once in a week.

First my range was 200 bucks and it seems like there are already good options out there but Garmin seems to have a better depth when it comes down to data analytics, and I don't want to have remorse buy, so I might will just go with a Garmin.

Yesterday I created this topic:

Alternative watch Forerunner 170 : r/Garmin

And one comment recommended me to go for 265s and that kinda stuck in my head, so I researched a bit and now I am considering to get one.

The 265s costs around 330-350 while the 170 Music costs around 350.

Most people say the 265s is already a full-product and the software updates are not that of a big factor to ignore the 265s.

So, my question is basically, is there a reason why I should pick the 170 Music over the 265s since they are pretty much the same price.

Alternative watch Forerunner 170

Hi guys,

I was eying on getting me a watch to keep myself more motivated. I go to the gym, try to do Hyrox once a week and started with running (currently running 6.5km).

I wanted to go for the Garmin Forerunner 165 but saw the 170 just got released and I love the Garmin readiness Function. So I read here on Reddit and watched some YouTube videos and so many people are saying there are alternatives for less price.

I know this is a Garmin-sub but maybe you guys can still recommend an alternative, maybe one that suits my profile better? My only issue is the price 300 bucks for the 170 / 350 for the 170 Music but I really love the readiness function.

A watch for around 200 bucks would be awesome. I am from Europe
