Any recommendation for a good watch for running that you can download music/

podcasts. Sick of taking my bulky phone on runs.

Samsung Gear Fit2 has been good for me. Simple watch without some of the bells

I have the Garmin 645 Forerunner Music. It's awesome.

5/31/20 10:31pm

Do you know if it has support for golf GPS as well? What limitations does it

cougaman

5/31/20 10:36pm

I don't think so.

5/31/20 11:53pm

Yeah. I might go with these 935 because of golf. That's why they don't put it on

Nevermind. Can't do phone free music with 935... Can you listen to podcasts on

Any that can download an audible or overdrive book? That will be the killer

Are you able to add 3rd party apps for stuff like Golf GPS?

cougaman

So you can get anything that's in the Play Store, as long as there's a watch version. It's got Golf GPS Rangefinder.

That sounds like a good option.
