The Garmin Forerunner 570 is the best-selling Garmin watch on Amazon right now, and it just dropped to its lowest price yet. Amazon currently has it at $449, down from its regular $549, the lowest price in 30 days and a meaningful cut on Garmin’s most capable mid-range AMOLED GPS running and triathlon watch.
Garmin’s brightest AMOLED display
The Forerunner 570 runs Garmin’s brightest AMOLED touchscreen to date in a 42mm aluminum case designed for smaller wrists, with button controls alongside the touch interface for reliable input during wet or gloved conditions. The 10-day battery life in smartwatch mode and 18 hours in GPS mode covers multi-day events, long trail runs, and full triathlon distances without the mid-race anxiety that shorter battery watches introduce. The morning report delivers sleep quality, HRV status, training readiness, and tomorrow’s weather before you get out of bed, and the evening report closes the day with a sleep target reminder and the next day’s planned workout.
Training readiness scores combine sleep quality, recent exercise history, training load, and HRV status into a single daily number that tells you whether to push hard or recover, which removes the guesswork that makes most training plans fail in practice. Personalized daily suggested workouts adapt based on actual performance and recovery rather than a fixed schedule, and Garmin Coach plans for running and triathlon adjust automatically as your fitness evolves. Training status uses VO2 max trends, HRV data, and recent load to classify your current fitness state as productive, peaking, or strained, which gives you an honest assessment of where your body is rather than where your plan says it should be.
The built-in microphone and speaker handle phone calls and voice assistant interactions from the wrist without needing to reach for a phone, and 30-plus activity profiles cover running, triathlon, track runs, open-water swimming, cycling, and more. Incident detection and Assistance send your live location to emergency contacts during outdoor activities if something goes wrong.
The Garmin Forerunner 165 we covered on Gizmodo (at $195) is the right entry point for runners who want an AMOLED display and basic training metrics. The Forerunner 570 at $449 adds triathlon profiles, a training readiness score, Garmin Coach adaptive plans, phone calls from the wrist, and a significantly more comprehensive recovery tracking system for anyone training seriously across multiple sports.
