Anyone using this screen protector on the Garmin Forerunner 970? Worth it?
Hey everyone,
I found this TPU/silicone-style screen protector case for the Garmin Forerunner 970 and I’m wondering if anyone here has actually used it.
Does it help protect the watch without making it feel bulky or ruining the touchscreen/display quality?
I mainly use my watch for running and gym workouts, so I’m trying to decide if it’s actually useful or just unnecessary extra plastic.
Would love to hear:
- durability over time
- touch sensitivity
- visibility in sunlight
- comfort during workouts
- whether it traps dust/moisture
Would you buy it again? Thanks!
New on garmin 970!
Hi everyone,
I recently upgraded to a Garmin 970 after using a Garmin 165 Music, and I’d really appreciate some advice from more experienced users.
I’m mainly looking for recommendations on:
The best settings to maximize battery life without losing important features
GPS configuration for running, cycling, and triathlon training
Any useful settings I should enable or disable from the start
Recommended apps, widgets, or data fields from Connect IQ
On my previous watch, the only extra app I used was Spotify, so I’m pretty new to customizing Garmin devices beyond the basics.
Any tips, setups, or personal experiences with the 970 would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
