Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • I was in the same dilemma and I ultimately went with the 570 because I can’t justify spending $500 on something that came out two years ago
  • Hey, my dad just got me a forerunner 570 for Christmas which totally blew me away, I'm shocked honestly that he would get me something so nice!
  • I have a 570 and I am very happy with it. Works like a clock.. ;)
  • I have Epix and 570. Both great watches, but the 570 is so much lighter and easier to wear, especially when running.
  • I had the same dilemma in a similar position and went for the 570. On paper it doesn't do much more than the 265 especially after disabling all the "smart" features, mic, speaker etc. but it didn't sit right with me to buy an older disco...

Cons

  • It is otherwise an inferior watch to 965 usually more expensive or at same price. Plus the 965 is much better battery wise.
  • I'd suggest looking at the Forerunner 255, 265 and 570 and the 955 through 970; at the Instinct 2 and 3, and at the Fenix 7 if price is an object.
  • Which model would you recommend between the Forerunner 970 and Forerunner 570, or are there other models I should be considering?
  • I wouldn't get a 570 , it is in every way inferior to a 955 (around £330) or 965 ( around £450 ) which you can still get.
  • it's full of bugs as you personally saw in 570 statement.

I didn't ask for this, but I have a few ultras coming up and my girlfriend thought it had maps and a longer battery than my current one.... it doesnt. She is really gutted as it cost a lot of money and is essentially a fancier looking version of the watch I have.
