This watch is really powerful. I am not sure at all about the battery duration, but it works for 3 days without charging. And, yes, you can heard your music from your watch. Love it!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars A good entry level - some doubts about music version
Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2023
It’s a good entry level for not professional runner. It’s has everything you need. The battery life is excellent and also the gps precision.
Excellent readability in any light condition.
Easy to use and I find really helpful the possibility to use the garmin training programs.
I don’t think that the music version is useful because you need Spotify connection.

1.0 out of 5 stars Good watch until it stops working, avoid refurbished
Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2023
Used this every day for about 6 months until one morning I woke up with a bunch of dead pixels on one side of the watch. An internet search showed this isn't unheard of for the 245. No big deal though, Garmin has a good one year warranty on all their watches.

Except no. Since this was a renewed watch the warranty is only 90 days and I had to pay $130 for a replacement (which also will only have a 90 day warranty). For something that is a known issue for the 245 I expected a better warranty policy. Right now the brand new and refurbished are only $10 different on Amazon. Play it safe and avoid the refurbished.
