| Garmin Launches Forerunner 970 and 570: Advanced Running Smartwatches Without a Subscription! |
If you're a runner or training for a triathlon, Garmin has some exciting news for you! The well-known smartwatch brand just introduced two brand-new models — the Garmin Forerunner 970 and Garmin Forerunner 570. These watches are packed with advanced features designed to help boost your performance, and the best part? You don't need a Garmin Connect Plus subscription to access them!
Premium Design with Next-Level Features
The Forerunner 970 is Garmin's newest flagship, priced around $750 (approx. IDR 12 million). It features a titanium bezel, scratch-resistant sapphire glass, offline maps, and even a built-in flashlight. It only comes in a 47mm size and can last up to 15 days on a single charge — perfect for active users.
Meanwhile, the more affordable Forerunner 570 is priced at $550 (approx. IDR 8.8 million) and comes in two sizes: 42mm and 47mm. It features an aluminum bezel and offers up to 10–11 days of battery life depending on the model.
Crisp OLED Display + Call Support
Both models come with vibrant OLED displays, built-in microphones, and speakers — so yes, you can take calls directly from your wrist. They also include a skin temperature sensor and a new "Evening Report" feature that analyzes your sleep needs and offers a forecast for the next day.
Plus, you can create custom workouts involving multiple sports, thanks to the updated triathlon mode — all available for free through Garmin Coach.
Bright Colors That Stand Out
Garmin didn’t hold back on style either. The Forerunner 570 (47mm) is available in a bold indigo color, while the smaller 42mm version comes in a fun raspberry-and-mango combo. It’s not just smart — it looks good, too!
Exclusive Features for Serious Runners
What really sets the Forerunner 970 apart are its exclusive running metrics, including:
-
Running Tolerance: Helps you find your ideal weekly training load.
-
Running Efficiency: Measures how efficiently you run based on accumulated fatigue.
-
Step Speed Loss: Tracks how your speed changes with each step.
To unlock the full potential of the last two features, you’ll need the new HRM 600 chest strap sensor, priced at around $170 (approx. IDR 2.7 million). It’s also ideal for team sports or workouts where wearing a watch isn’t convenient.
Battery & Smart Indicators
The HRM 600 boasts a two-month battery life and features LED indicators that let you know when the device is ready to go — no more second-guessing before a workout!
Release Date
All these new devices will be available starting May 21, and they’re definitely going to be a top pick for runners and triathletes looking for advanced features without monthly fees.
Garmin has once again proven why it’s a leader in the sports tech world. With the launch of the Forerunner 970 and 570, you're getting feature-packed smartwatches with no extra subscriptions — perfect for anyone serious about their fitness journey.
