Review on 🏃 Renewed Garmin Forerunner 245 Music - Advanced GPS Running Smartwatch with Music and Dynamics, Black by Derek Dolla

There is no such thing as a perfect smartwatch. Garmin's interface is clunky, Spotify integration works, but songs take forever to download, Bluetooth with my AirPods was unreliable (as was the watch's connection to my phone). Every time I plugged in my AirPods for a run, the default Spotify volume on the watch was two stops below the loudest play (even after my last run was set to low volume), so they turned on the music and hurt me . ears. Then during a run they showed they were plugged in and playing but got stuck at a higher volume and no matter what I did I couldn't turn them off so I stopped the music and put the pods in my pocket. What's the point? It just sucks because the Apple Watch isn't perfect either, but I might come back to this as I need a music player so I don't have to carry my phone around. I wish this watch could have done less but did those few things really well and reliably. Instead of cramming all those features into something that doesn't work as advertised half the time.
