Product Description
Run with confidence. Forerunner® 945 LTE has the power of LTE connectivity (must have an active subscription plan and connectivity to a Category M1 LTE network), bringing phone-free safety and tracking features right to your wrist (Assistance Plus is not available in all markets where Category M1 LTE network connectivity is available). Should you need assistance, your watch can send your name and location to your emergency contacts or connect you to the Garmin IERCC, a professional 24/7 emergency monitoring and response center. Loved ones can virtually cheer while they follow your run in real time. While you run, ride and swim, get the most out of every mile with advanced physiological training tools. Download music from select services (may require premium subscription with a third-party music provider) to store on your watch for phone-free listening (when paired with compatible headphones). Garmin Pay™ contactless payments (with a supported country, payment network and issuing bank information) let you leave your wallet home, too. Full-color onboard mapping with Trendline™ popularity routing even helps you find and follow the best paths.

The 945 lte has music, great battery life, smart features (which I actually disable them all), and the ability to get help if needed phone free! For me, that’s all I need or want.
Wished they’d add the LTE emergency feature to the Fenix line.
Syncing albums from Spotify was a pain at first, but I joined Garmin's Beta testing program and after a software update, it was easy peasy. I am extremely satisfied!
I wish it had integrated calorie tracking
The enjoyment lasted until the end of May, when I noticed the watch became stuck in a reboot cycle. The Garmin logo would be displayed, there would be second where the screen said maps were being loaded, the screen would go black, and the cycle would repeat again.
I reached out to Garmin and, to their credit, they issued me a free replacement. The replacement lasted less than 12 hours, as I woke up the day after setting up the new watch to find it stuck in the same reboot cycle.
I've reached out to Garmin support again, but even if they send me yet another replacement, I'll always be worried it will develop the same problem.
UPDATE: My second replacement arrived yesterday. I woke up this morning to discover this watch ALSO stuck in a reboot cycle.
Avoid this watch at all costs.
However, I can only give it two stars for 2 chief complaints. There is a bug with pool swim workouts that renders that feature unusable. You can still track pool swims but the on screen pool swim workouts breaks after one lap/interval. It seems like there are a few other bugs that other users are experiencing but this is the only one that I've encountered/affects me.
The other complaint is that the sleep tracking is awful. It can barely tell me when I go to sleep and wake up, let alone accurately determine what state of sleep I'm in.
The software support seems lazy for these reasons.
I strongly recommend this watch but for a $650 product I can't give it more than 3 stars until these things are addressed.
1. Horrible swim stats. Gets stroke count wrong by 50%, sometimes doesn't record laps at all (I've checked the settings).
2. I have to force restart the watch to get the music to function. Otherwise it won't pair bluetooth.

While the Garmin 945 LTE is not perfect, it is darn close.
Here are my thoughts on running with the 945LTE for a month. Since we all have specific needs, I'll briefly describe myself so you can determine if my review would have any merit for you. I'm a 67-year-old marathoner. I'm not a triathlete, so I cannot address the tri features of the watch. I don't listen to music when I run but did test this feature as described below.
I use Training Peaks, and the watch seamlessly integrates with TP. I don’t use Strava but assume Garmin works with a popular platform like Strava.
My other running watches are a Suunto Peak 9 and a Coros Pace 2. The LTE will replace a Fenix 5X.
The LTE version of the 945 is smaller than the original but retains the screen size. The screen is crisp and easy to read. It is not a touch screen, which I see as a positive feature on a running watch. Buttons always work, and I find touch screens duller than regular screens, and clumsy to work with when wearing mittens.
My main interest in the LTE was the cellular safety features. These worked flawlessly. Tracking notifications went automatically to my selected contacts, and it was comforting to know that I could be found if needed. Fortunately, I did not have to test the emergency response feature. (I'm willing to take one for the team, but hey, there are limits!)
To my mind, this is the best of both worlds. You have the safety running with a phone provides, without the nuisance of dragging a clunky phone. And the LTE does not bombard you with emails, texts and messages. We run to get away from the world, right? (I know you can turn notifications on and off, but I am constantly turning off notifications Sunday morning when I go to Church and discover they are still turned off next Thursday.)
Do bear in mind that you pay a monthly fee to Garmin for this. It is $12 a month in Canada. The peace of mind is worth it to me. If you always carry your phone or have an Apple Watch cellular, this service has little point.
The music feature worked as stated. I loaded up the entire Smiths' catalogue and the watch easily paired to my headphones. The interface to control music is elegant and simple. I confess it was quite cool to go running with Morrissey. :-)
The metrics Garmin provides are beneficial and easily understood. I especially loved the climb pro feature-useful here on PEI, where you are either going up or down a hill. The body battery is interesting and much cheaper than a Whoop subscription. It is not something I will use, as I've been around long enough to know when I'm overtraining or had a bad night of sleep. (Which is all the time.)
There are two areas where I'd love to see some changes. Both could be done via a firmware update, so fingers crossed. These may not matter to you and are not deal breakers. I use a Stryd footpad as running by power works best in the hilly, windy environment on the North shore of PEI. While the Garmin does integrate with the Stryd through a Connect IQ app, I wish it would work natively as the under $300 Coros Pace 2. Secondly-and this is because I'm an old guy with big hands and aging eyes-I wish Garmin would allow customizing the watch via a phone or web portal. I find that quicker and easier than pressing buttons and scrolling a tiny watch screen. Both Coros and Suunto have a phone/web interface. (Well, Coros will have a web interface at the start of 2022-I'm testing the beta now, and it is quite nice.)
I mentioned the watch was not perfect. Perhaps a better statement would have been that the watch is not perfect for me. It might be for you. In the price range I think it is impossible to beat. Thanks for reading this, and I wish you all miles of smiles in 2022.

Every swim session give me completely wrong figures, does random counts, like it said that I did 3k in less than 20minutes 🙄
